pyonepassword 3.6.0: now with multiple item deletion
Hey there fellow CLI users. Apologies for the crosspost. I wanted to share the release of pyonepassword
3.6.0.
In response to a question posted here, I've added the ability to delete multiple items from a vault in one method call. It's much faster than looping over a list of items, deleting one at a time.
In addition to a mandatory vault
argument, you may optionally select items for deletion by tags, item category, and/or a name-matching glob pattern. (the glob pattern follows the same rules as fnmatch()
)
Under the hood this method deletes items in batches defaulting to 25 items. So a request to delete 100 items, would, behind the scenes, delete those items in four passes. This is tunable by a kwarg in case users see performance benefits with smaller or larger batches.
Here are some examples:
```python
from pyonepassword import OP
op = OP()
vault = "Test Data"
delete all items from vault "Test Data"
op.item_delete_multiple(vault)
delete all items tagged 'tag_1' or 'tag_2'
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, tags=["tag_1", "tag_2"])
delete all items of category "server"
server arguments may be any argument accepted by 'op item list --categories'
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, categories=["server"])
Delete all items matching glob pattern "My*Login", including:
- My New Login
- My Old Login
- My Spiffy Login
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, title_glob="My*Login")
Delete all items from the vault, including previouly archived items:
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, include_archive=True)
Delete all items from the vault, moving them to the archive
rather than permanently deleting
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, archive=True)
Delete items in batches of 40, rather than the default of 25
op.item_delete_multiple(vault, batch_size=40)
```
Hope people find this useful! Let me know if you have any questions, and don't hesitate to file GitHub issues on any problems or feature requests.
Cheers,
Zach
