README

A casual (but dangerous) package that will let Thanos snap fingers and delete random files inside a directory.

Based off thanos-js

⚠️ WARNING

This tool deletes files.
This will delete files unless you use: --dry-run This should not delete files in:

• .git
• vendor
• .env
• composer.json

Warning... this has not really been tested. I ran it locally on a windows machine, use at your own risk!

Install

composer require bcsingh50/thanos-php

Run (Via CLI)

vendor/bin/snap --dry-run

Once you are brave...

vendor/bin/snap --with-gauntlet

Run (Via PHP)

ob_start(); // optional to see output. 
$gauntlet->snap($path, $dryRun, $withGauntlet);
$output = ob_get_clean();

echo $output;

Future improvements

• Add logging and better output so you do not have to capture output from echos.
