cronicle scans .cronicle.yaml and cleanup parent folder archives accordingly.

~/.config/cronicle/config.yaml

~/backups/prod_*.dump.bin
    daily: 4
    weekly: 7
    monthly: 6

~/backups/recette_*.dump.bin

The root elements must be regexes, one for each set of archives to maintain.

Here, we configure archives for dump of a production db, keeping :

  • the 4 last spaced with at least 1 day
  • the 7 last spaced with at least 1 week
  • the 6 last spaced with at least 1 month

By default, if only the pattern is given, cronicle will delete all archives but the most recent one.
