💅 WWCTL(1) — okay bestie, let's talk about wwctl clean

So you opened the wwctl manual page, section 1 of the Unix manual, and honestly? Good for you. Sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let me tell you about the little cleanup command that keeps your life together.

✨ NAME ✨

wwctl-clean — the cleanup era. That's it, that's the vibe. 🧹

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

wwctl clean

No flags required, no fuss, just the command. Iconic behaviour, truly.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea ☕ — this command cleans the OCI cache and removes the leftovers from deleted nodes. That's the whole job. It tidies up after you like the world's most responsible bestie. No cap, it's giving "main character energy" for housekeeping.

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

• -h, --help[=false] — shows help for clean. The [=false] is literally right there in the default, so yes, it starts off as false. You're welcome. 💖

🌸 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌸

These didn't come from clean itself, they're hand-me-downs from the parent command, and they still absolutely slay:

• -d, --debug[=false] — run with debugging messages enabled. Defaults to false, but you will turn it on when something breaks, iykyk. 🔍
• -v, --verbose[=false] — run with increased verbosity. Same deal, [=false] is the default. She talks more when you ask her to. 🗣️
• --warewulfconf="" — set the warewulf configuration file. Note the empty default "", so like, you do have to actually give it a path, bestie. 🫶

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

• wwctl(1) — the parent, the mother, the one who started it all. Go say hi. 👑
