Knowit.ContentCleanupTool

Knowit.ContentCleanupTool helps to cleanup orphaned (not used) media content and blocks that are older than a given date, in a specific folder or for the entire site.

Installation:

dotnet add package Knowit.ContentCleanupTool --source https://www.myget.org/F/creuna-nuget/api/v3/index.json
After installation:
  • Open Startup.cs
  • Register ContentCleanupTool services with extension method AddContentCleanupTool

example:

    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
        if (_webHostingEnvironment.IsDevelopment())
        {
            AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetData("DataDirectory", Path.Combine(_webHostingEnvironment.ContentRootPath, "App_Data"));

            services.Configure<SchedulerOptions>(options => options.Enabled = false);
        }

        services
            .AddCmsAspNetIdentity<ApplicationUser>()
            .AddCms()
            .AddAdminUserRegistration()
            ;

        services.AddContentCleanupTool();
    }
  • Configure ContentCleanupTool via code implementing configuratoin action

example:

    services.AddContentCleanupTool(options =>
        {
            options.ReportsFolderName = "Content Cleanup Reports";
            options.IgnoreFileExtensions = new List<string>
            {
                "pdf",
                "json"
            };
            options.IgnoreFolderIds = new List<int> { 10 };
            
        });

or/and configure via 'appsettings.json' (configuration in appSettings.json has highest proirty over configuration in code)

example:

    "ContentCleanupTool": {
        "ReportsFolderName": "Content Cleanup Reports",
        "IgnoreFileExtensions": [ "pdf", "json" ],
        "IgnoreFolderIds": [10]
      }
