    pip install django-unused-media

    Python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, PyPy are tested with tox.

    Django 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11 are tested with tox.

        'django_unused_media',

    )

Usage

To cleanup all unused media files, run management command:

./manage.py cleanup_unused_media

By default command is running in interactive mode. List of files which are going to be removed will be displayed for confirmation. User have to confirm the action.

Options

--noinput, --no-input

Non interactive mode. Command will remove files without any confirmation from user. Useful for scripts.

./manage.py cleanup_unused_media --noinput

-e, --exclude

To avoid operating on particular files you can use exclude option. - ``*`` as any symbol is supported. - Can use multiple options in one command.

For example, to keep .gitignore and *.png files you can use:

./manage.py cleanup_unused_media -e *.gitignore -e *.png

Also you can exclude entire folder or some files in that folder (path should be relative to settings.MEDIA_ROOT):

./manage.py cleanup_unused_media -e path/to/dir/* -e path/to/dir/my*.doc
