# Note: This code is a stop-gap to erase Job Artifacts for a project. I HIGHLY recommend you leverage
#       "artifacts:expire_in" in your .gitlab-ci.yml

@mikeller I suggest you write your script code in a gist, or even fork this one here and replace it with you python code =)

Each gist indicates which forks have activity, making it easy to find interesting changes from others.

@voiski: Good point, done: https://gist.github.com/mikeller/ee7a668a83e4b9bc61646bddb4a2ade6

New version that takes a GitLab group id as a parameter and then cleans up all repositories in the group: https://gist.github.com/mikeller/7034d99bc27c361fc6a2df84e19c36ff
