oarremoveresource(8)

💖 oarremoveresource(8) — the "bestie, this resource is SO over" command 💖

okay so welcome to oarremoveresource(8), part of the OAR commands collection, and bestie… this one is a certified permanent delete. no takebacks, no undo button, no "wait actually can we rewind" moment. it's giving main character with a delete key. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

oarremoveresource — remove a resource from the database. that's it. that's the whole job. she removes, she dips, she's gone 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

oarremoveresource <resource_id>

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what she actually does: she removes all the records in the database that are related to the resource with id resource_id. all of them. every last one. she's thorough, she's committed, she does not half-do things ✨

🚨 okay here's the tea: only resources in the "Dead" state can be removed. if your resource is out here living its best life in some other state, this command is gonna be like "no ❤️".

need to change a resource's state first? that's oarnodesetting's moment to shine — use the oarnodesetting command to flip it. ⚠️ but heads up, a real warning here: the oar-server service must be running for the state change to take effect. if it's not up, nothing's changing, periodt.

😭 and please, please mind the fact that all history related to the removed resource, including jobs which were executed on it, will disappear. like, poof. gone gone. the whole lore, deleted. this is not a drill, bestie, this is the whole entire point of the command.
