ECACCE...E-RMDIR(1p)

💅 ecaccess-file-rmdir — bestie's guide to yeeting a directory off the ECaccess File System ✨

okay so. you know ecaccess-file-rmdir? it's from the ECACCE...E-RMDIR(1p) manual, it's a Perl thing (User Contributed Perl Documentation, no cap), and it does exactly one job: it removes a directory on the ECaccess File System. that's it. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ecaccess-file-rmdir -version|-help|-manual

ecaccess-file-rmdir [-debug] ecaccess-file

like, either you're asking it for info about itself, or you're handing it a file and telling it to go off. pick a lane, queen 👑

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

it lets you remove the Directory ecaccess-file on the ECaccess File System. simple as that, fr fr.

now the ecaccess-file itself is shaped like [domain:][/user-id/]path. if you're like "bestie what does that even mean" — the "Shell commands -> File Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide has all the lore on the ECaccess File System. go read it, iykyk 📖💖

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ecaccess-file — the name of the ECaccess Directory you want to remove. the main character of this whole operation 💅

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -version — shows you the version number and then dips. exits immediately. no small talk.
• -help — prints a brief help message and exits. the quick lil pep talk version 🥰
• -manual — prints the manual page and exits. that's literally the thing you're reading rn, meta moment.
• -retry count — number of SSL connection retries per 5s to ECMWF. okay so important detail: this parameter only applies to the initial SSL connection that the command initiates to the ECMWF server. it does not apply to all the subsequent requests made afterward, because it's mainly targeting errors that can happen from time to time during the SSL handshake. Default is no retry. don't expect it to babysit everything downstream, it won't 😭
• -debug — displays the SOAP and SSL messages exchanged. the receipts. the behind-the-scenes footage. perfect if you're nosy (affectionate) 🔍

---

🦋 EXAMPLES 🦋

ecaccess-file-rmdir c1a:/c1a/tmp/systems/xyz/test-dir

this removes the test-dir Directory inside the "/c1a/tmp/systems/xyz" directory on c1a. boom. gone. slay ✨
