The rmstale from danstis

Remove copied code for confirmation

Correct behavior for directories

Currently directories are not removed, as the removal of files below updates the modified timestamp.

Add release binaries for linux

Migrate releases to Go Releaser

Add feature to filter by file extention

Add a user, I would like the ability to filter the files by file extension, so that I can delete all files in the specified path with the selected extension.
IE: rmstale -path /tmp/ -extension log
Would remove all *.log files in the /tmp/ folder.

Change tests to use testify

As a project maintainer,
I want the tests to be updated to use testify,
as goconvey seems to be end of life.

Extend Install instructions for mac

As a user,
I want the install instructions extended to detail how to install on Mac,
so I don't have to figure it out myself.

Add logging

Actions taken should be logged

Add default values to the help output for each option

As a user,
I would like the help details to tell me the defaults for each option,
so I know what will be run if I do not specify a value.

Update the output format of the version command

As a user, I want the version command output to be updated, so it is easier to read.

Current:
rmstale v=1.12.0

Desired:
rmstale v1.12.0

docs: add CONTRIBUTING.md file to project

As a contributor,
I want to have a CONTRIBUTING.md file in the repo,
so I know the guidelines for contributing.

Update build to use dep

Build should use dep to download imported packages.

Change format of log messages

It would be preferable to have the log messages updated to a more readable format.

Today they look like this:
INFO : 2018/03/08 14:40:40.643151 rmstale.go:118: Removing 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI6aeca.LOG'...

I propose they should look more like this:
INFO : 2018/03/08 14:40:40 : Removing 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI6aeca.LOG'...
or
2018/03/08 14:40:40 : INFO : Removing 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI6aeca.LOG'...

Replace go-prompt dependency

As a developer, I want to replace the go-prompt dependency, so I rely on less external code.

Linux version is not working

When attempting to run the linux version of rmstale the following error message is returned.
:~$ ./rmstale
-bash: ./rmstale: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

Add package to apt-get

As a developer,
I want the rmstale binary to be added to apt-get,
so I can install it on ubuntu with ease.

Add semantic release process

https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release

Update names returned on removal to use correct slashes.

Currently the file path returned for removed files contains mixed slashes on Windows.
For example:

Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/AddEntry.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/DeleteEntry.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/EditEntry.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/ProgressError.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/ProgressSkip.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/ProgressSuccess.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources/ProgressWarn.ico"
Removing "C:\\Temp\\rmstale\\/resources"

Dry-run show automatically bypass the confirmation prompt

As a user, I want the dry-run option to remove the need to confirm the operation, so I don't have to also provide the -y param.

Update the help output when running rmstale with no arguments

As a user, I want the help message that is displayed when you run the tool without arguments to be tidied up so the short and long arguments are presented on one line, so the output is easier to read.

For example, it currently outputs this:

❯ rmstale
  -a int
        Age in days to check for file modification.
  -age int
        Age in days to check for file modification.
  -confirm
        Don't prompt for confirmation.
  -e string
        Filter files by extension.
  -extension string
        Filter files by extension.
  -p string
        Path to check for stale files. (default "C:\\Users\\dan\\AppData\\Local\\Temp")
  -path string
        Path to check for stale files. (default "C:\\Users\\dan\\AppData\\Local\\Temp")
  -v    Display version information.
  -version
        Display version information.
  -y    Don't prompt for confirmation.

where it could output this:

❯ rmstale
  -a, --age int
        Age in days to check for file modification.
  -y, --confirm
        Don't prompt for confirmation.
  -e, --extension string
        Filter files by extension.
  -p, --path string
        Path to check for stale files. (default "C:\\Users\\dan\\AppData\\Local\\Temp")
  -v, --version
        Display version information.

Extend Install instructions for linux

As a user,
I want the install instructions extended to detail how to install on Linux,
so I don't have to figure it out myself.

Change out build process with go-releaser

Fix chocolatey release process

The choco release process is broken due to changes in the GitHub actions:

Error: Unable to process command '::set-env name=CHOCOPUBLISH::true' successfully.
Error: The `set-env` command is disabled. Please upgrade to using Environment Files or opt into unsecure command execution by setting the `ACTIONS_ALLOW_UNSECURE_COMMANDS`

Fix "GoLint/Type-Inference/" issue in rmstale.go

should omit type string from declaration of var AppVersion; it will be inferred from the right-hand side

https://codeclimate.com/github/danstis/rmstale/rmstale.go#issue_5a5953294889650001000020

Add a whatif/dry run option

As a user,
I want to have a what-if or dry-run option,
so I can list the files that would be removed without performing the deletes.

Add version flag

Add a -version flag to return app version

Workflows are referencing vulnerable actions

Hello, there!

As part of the university research we are currently doing regarding the security of Github Actions, we noticed that one or many of the workflows that are part of this repository are referencing vulnerable versions of the third-party actions. As part of a disclosure process, we decided to open issues to notify GitHub Community.

Please note that there are could be some false positives in our methodology, thus not all of the open issues could be valid. If that is the case, please let us know, so that we can improve on our approach. You can contact me directly using an email: ikoishy [at] ncsu.edu

Thanks in advance

The workflow build.yml is referencing action gittools/actions/gitversion/setup using references v0.9.9. However this reference is missing the commit 90150b4 which may contain fix to the vulnerability.
The workflow build.yml is referencing action gittools/actions/gitversion/execute using references v0.9.9. However this reference is missing the commit 90150b4 which may contain fix to the vulnerability.

The workflow build.yml is referencing action gittools/actions/gitversion/execute using references v0.9.9. However this reference is missing the commit 90150b4 which may contain fix to the vulnerability.

The vulnerability fix that is missing by actions' versions could be related to:
(1) CVE fix
(2) upgrade of vulnerable dependency
(3) fix to secret leak and others.
Please consider updating the reference to the action.

If you end up updating the reference, please let us know. We need the stats for the paper :-)

Fix issue with build pipeline when run against dependabot commits

Ensure root directory is not removed

Currently the walkfunc could potentially remove the root directory if it is old and empty.
The desired behavior is to leave the root folder alone.

Dry-run option is missing in the usage instructions

The usage instructions that are displayed do not include the dry-run parameter.

(CRT-D0011) Calls to `exit`/`fatal` made in function using `defer`

Description

In these cases, in case of failure, defer never gets called. Example:

Occurrences

There is 1 occurrence of this issue in the repository.

See all occurrences on DeepSource → deepsource.io/gh/danstis/rmstale/issue/CRT-D0011/occurrences/

Empty directories removed with extension filter

When running with the extension filter, any empty directories are removed.
I would expect that directories are not removed when run with a filter like this.

The root folder is attempted to be removed if it is stale and empty

When running against a folder under any OS, the root folder can be processed even though it states it will not remove it:

>:~$ ./rmstale --path /var/log/dist-upgrade/ --age 14
WARNING: Will remove files and folders recursively below '/var/log/dist-upgrade/' older than 14 days. Continue?: y
-Not removing folder '/var/log/dist-upgrade/' as it is the root folder...-Removing '/var/log/dist-upgrade/'...
ERROR: remove /var/log/dist-upgrade/: permission denied

chore: add package to winget

As a user,
I want rmstale added to winget,
so I can quickly install and update it.

Confirmation is broken

❯ rmstale -a 300
WARNING: Will remove files and folders recursively below 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp' older than 300 days. Continue? (y/n) n
WARN : 22:17:16 Operation not confirmed, exiting.

❯ rmstale -a 300 -y
WARNING: Will remove files and folders recursively below 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp' older than 300 days. Continue? (y/n) n
WARN : 22:17:21 Operation not confirmed, exiting.

❯ rmstale -a 300 --confirm
WARNING: Will remove files and folders recursively below 'C:\Users\dan\AppData\Local\Temp' older than 300 days. Continue? (y/n)

feat: create windows installer

Required for #74

Version number format is incorrect in 1.7.0 version

When running with the version switch, the version returned is not in the correct format:
> rmstale -version
rmstale v=1.7.0

The expected output should be:
rmstale v1.7.0

Fix CI build on cocolatety package step

https://github.com/danstis/rmstale/actions/runs/8028393984

Update build to use Go 1.15

feat: allow short parameters as well as full params

As a user,
I would like to have the ability to provide parameters as the first letter only, as well as the full word,
so I don't have to continually type the full parameter name.

Example:
rmstale -age 14
should also accept
rmstale -a 14
