A small Go program for cleaning up slack file uploads. Useful if you keep hitting limits on your team plan as there is no way to bulk delete files.

## Installing Slack Cleanup

    go get -u github.com/madecomfy/slack-cleanup

You will need to generate an API token that has permission to delete files. Add this token to your environment
variables. At MadeComfy we use [Direnv](https://direnv.net/) to manage local environment variables.

    export SLACK_API_TOKEN=xoxp-111111-1111111-1111111-1111111-111111

## Running Slack Cleanup

We assume your $GOPATH/bin folder is in your PATH.

    $ slack-cleanup

Slack cleanup will delete any files older than the past 2 weeks.

## Future Improvements

- S3 backups of old files
- Configurable time periods
- Lamba installation
