Trasher

A small script to clean up my downloads folder written in Clojure. Only works on Mac OS X.

The script will trash everything under ~/Downloads that has not been opened for longer than a year.

Build

To build the binary, here are some instructions.

• Install lein
• Download GraalVM for your machine. You will need the EE version.
• Set JAVA_HOME to the GraalVM home directory, e.g.

export JAVA_HOME=~/Downloads/graalvm-1.0.0-rc1/Contents/Home

• Set the PATH to use GraalVM's binaries, e.g.

export PATH=$PATH:~/Downloads/graalvm-1.0.0-rc1/Contents/Home/bin

• Create the uberjar:

lein uberjar

• Finally, create the binary:

native-image -jar target/trasher-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT-standalone.jar -H:Name="trasher"

Schedule Job

Here is how to schedule a daily job for executing the binary.

• Change the username, binary path and schedule in the ./ams.geurs.trasher.plist file.

• Copy the file into ~/Library/LaunchAgents/

• Load the job into launchd:

launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ams.geurs.trasher.plist
