README

When using file as cache driver, Laravel creates cache files but never purges expired ones. This can lead to server overload of cache files which drained up storage spaces.

This package creates an artisan command cache:cleanup that will clean up your cache files, removing any that had expired. You may run this manually or include it in a schedule.

Thanks to TerrePorter for his suggestion on laravel.io!

Thanks to jdavidbakr for his packagist but I decided to learn how to create my own packagist and how this formed!
