[spree-user] Spree Garbage Cleaner extension released

[Alberto Vena]

Hi,

we just released a new Spree extension that helps deleting unneeded data created by Spree from database. 

https://github.com/nebulab/spree-garbage-cleaner

The extension works defining a couple of rake task, one to verify how many records will be deleted (rake db:garbage:stats) and another that does the job (rake db:garbage:cleanup). Records to be deleted are incomplete orders and anonymous users, considered as garbage if older then 7 days (as editable preference).

We built the extension as a starting point and we have tried to make it easily extendable to other models or configurations if needed.

We need the community to help us understand if we didn't consider (or left out) something so we would like to receive some feedback from spree users to improve the extension.

Regards

Awesome!

Excellent work Alberto! Thank you for creating this.

[Alberto Vena]

Thanks, we are glad our work is appreciated.

We are also working on a branch for older versions (without namespace) for some of our stores. If someone is interested in a specific version let us know. We can try to provide a tested branch for that version too.

Nice job! Is there any particular reason you have the gem dependency set to Spree 1.1.3?  Or more specifically is there anything preventing this from working with any 1.1.X version?

[Alberto Vena]

We used that version to run tests but the extension should work with every Spree version after the namespace refactor. Do you think we have to set dependencies in another way?

P.S. pull requests are welcome. :)

I'd recommend you to set up branches that match 1-0-stable, 1-1-stable and 1-2-stable and master on Spree and setup Travis (if you do use this CI) to only run CI test on those.

Ok, we are having some issues with the 1.2 version but I think they are related to the role bug discussed in issue #9 of spree_auth_devise ( https://github.com/spree/spree_auth_devise/issues/9 ). We will wait for the next RC to try again. 

In the meantime we have applied your advice creating 1-0-stable and 1-1-stable branches with TravisCI active.

Thanks!

Hi Alberto,

We are interested in a garbage cleaner for spree version 0.40.2.  Any chance you have one?

Thanks very much,
Kate

[Alberto Vena]

Hi Kate,

I'm quite sure that the 0-30-stable branch ( https://github.com/nebulab/spree-garbage-cleaner/tree/0-30-stable ) will work with 0.40.x version too but unfortunately we have not a real environment we can do some tests over.

Anyway have you already considered to fork the repo, change the dependencies inside "spree_garbage_cleaner.gemspec" and test (not in production) the extension with your application? If you need help I will be happy to guide you in this process and to check with you if everything worked fine.

Cheers
