[v6] How to delete an uploaded file with adonisjs please ?

[franckDev21]

I'd like to know how to delete the files I previously downloaded in a specific folder. Please, how can I do that?

Hello @franckDev21, you can stock in a sql table the path of your file.
For example if you have a Profile table you create one column named picture_link that is the link to your image on your upload folder. Then if you want to delete the image or file you have just to retrieve the path with the picture_link column then delete it with the filesystem.

Right, thanks, with an fs.unlink(), isn't it ?
