hydra janitor

hydra janitor​

Clean the database of old tokens, login/consent requests and jwt grant issuers

Synopsis​

This command will cleanup any expired oauth2 tokens as well as login/consent requests. This will select records to delete with a limit and delete records in batch to ensure that no table locking issues arise in big production databases.

Warning​

This command is in beta. Proceed with caution!

This is a destructive command and will purge data directly from the database. Please use this command with caution if you need to keep historic data for any reason.

###############

Janitor can be used in several ways.

  1. By passing the database connection string (DSN) as an argument Pass the database url (dsn) as an argument to janitor. E.g. janitor <database-url>

  2. By passing the DSN as an environment variable

    export DSN=...
    janitor -e

  3. By passing a configuration file containing the DSN janitor -c /path/to/conf.yml

  4. Extra optional parameters can also be added such as

    janitor --keep-if-younger 23h --access-lifespan 1h --refresh-lifespan 40h --consent-request-lifespan 10m &lt;database-url&gt;

  5. Running only a certain cleanup

    janitor --tokens &lt;database-url&gt;

    or

    janitor --requests &lt;database-url&gt;

    or

    janitor --grants &lt;database-url&gt;
