Remove unreferenced files from uploads and fileadmin

FAL Cleanup

This is a TYPO3 CMS extension that provides a CLI command for removing all unused files from the fileadmin and uploads directory using the reference table sys_file_reference of FAL., _(*1)

Installation

Add it into the typo3conf/ext folder., _(*2)

via git, _(*3)

git clone https://github.com/trenker/typo3.fal_clean.git typo3conf/ext/fal_clean

or via composer, _(*4)

composer require georggrossberger/falclean

Using the composer method will, of course, require an installation using the composer integration of TYPO3., _(*5)

In both cases, go to the extension manager module and install it., _(*6)

There is currently no TER release., _(*7)

Usage

The extension offers two CLI extbase commands: simulate and execute. The first will list which records and files will be deleted. The second one acutally deletes them., _(*8)

# Show unused files and records
php typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh extbase falclean:simulate

# Remove the files
php typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh extbase falclean:execute

Make sure your FAL relations are properly set up, or it will delete more than desired., _(*9)
