[EP-tech] command line user delete?
CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.
Hi Herbert,
Here's something that should help:
https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgist.github.com%2Fjesusbagpuss%2Fd5fa10ef3915e036f0eb24b4a2ad019f&data=04%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C0479d428654b4bdcc08808da0db731a1%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0%7C0%7C637837378283290569%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=orvVv0j%2Bmz492WxjRpO2RuP5v6uEv7GSFgXhiyxs2DE%3D&reserved=0
Save it as:
[EPRINTS_ROOT]/bin/local/delete_user
And run it:
[EPRINTS_ROOT]/bin/local/delete_user ARCHIVEID USERID [USERIDx USERIDy ...]
It provides a summary of user details:
Name; usertype; email; joined date
It also outputs whether the user:
- has any current login tickets
- owns any EPrints
- is a contact for any eprints
By default it will ask you to confirm each user deletion.
It won't stop you deleting a user that owns EPrints, is currently logged in, or is a contact for EPrints.
Please let me know if you have any questions... and run it on a test instance first! :)
Cheers,
John

Thank you all for your help and comments.
I understand that it is tricky to remove users. But before installing a
chaptcha I had a numnber of bots register with fake addresses. Even
though they cannot go on from there, they do not belong in the
database. I promise I'll be careful trying John's script ...
