Usage

Provide your Digital Ocean access token via the argument --access-token or environment variable DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN.

Set the maximum age of droplets to retain via the --max-age-days argument (default is 14).

To preserve droplets with a specific tag set the --preserve-tag argument.

To print a list of droplets that would be deleted, without performing any actual deletions, add the --dry-run flag.

e.g. to list the droplets older than 28 days, except those with the tag DoNotDelete, that would be deleted, with an access-token of 123abc:

dry-cloth --access-token 123abc --preserve-tag DoNotDelete --max-age-days 28 --dry-run
