NAME¶
htpurge - remove unused documents from the database (general maintenance script)
SYNOPSIS¶
htpurge [-][-a][-c configfile][-u][-v]
DESCRIPTION¶
Htpurge functions to remove specified URLs from the databases as well as bad
URLs, unretrieved URLs, obsolete documents, etc. It is recommended that
htpurge be run after htdig to clean out any documents of this sort.
OPTIONS¶
- -
- Take URL list from standard input (rather than
specified with -u). Format of input file is one URL per line.
-a Use alternate work files. Tells htpurge to append .work
to database files, causing a second copy of the database to be built. This
allows the original files to be used by htsearch during the run.
- -c configfile
- Use the specified configfile instead of the
default.
- -u URL
- Add this URL to the list of documents to remove.
Must be specified multiple times if more than one URL are to be
removed. Should nor be used together with -.
- -v
- Verbose mode. This increases the verbosity of the program.
Using more than 2 is probably only useful for debugging purposes. The
default verbose mode (using only one -v) gives a nice progress
report while digging.
FILES¶
- /etc/htdig/htdig.conf
- The default configuration file.
