SYNOPSIS

datalad-uninstall [--version] [-h] [-l LEVEL] [-p {condor}] [-d DATASET] [--dont-remove-data] [--remove-handles] [-r] [--remove-history] [--nocheck] [--kill] [--if-dirty {fail,save-before,ignore}] [PATH [PATH ...]]

DESCRIPTION

Uninstall a dataset component or entire dataset(s)

OPTIONS

PATH path/name of the component to be uninstalled. Constraints: value must be a string [Default: None]

--version show the program's version and license information -h, --help, --help-np show this help message. --help-np forcefully disables the use of a pager for displaying the help message -l LEVEL, --log-level LEVEL set logging verbosity level. Choose among critical, error, warning, info, debug. Also you can specify an integer <10 to provide even more debugging information -p {condor}, --pbs-runner {condor} execute command by scheduling it via available PBS. For settings, config file will be consulted -d DATASET, --dataset DATASET specify the dataset to perform the uninstall operation on. If no dataset is given, an attempt is made to identify the dataset based on the current working directory and/or the PATH given. Constraints: Value must be a Dataset or a valid identifier of a Dataset (e.g. a path) [Default: None] --dont-remove-data whether to drop data associated with matching file handles during uninstallation. This option prevents data from being dropped. [Default: True] --remove-handles if given, matching file handles are removed. This flag is required for deleting entire datasets. [Default: False] -r, --recursive if set, recurse into potential subdataset. [Default: False] --remove-history whether to permit operations that remove recorded dataset history, for example when removing entire datasets completely. Such changes are not recoverable, use with care. [Default: False] --nocheck whether to perform checks to assure the configured minimum number (remote) source for data to be uninstalled. Give this option to skip checks. [Default: True] --kill **WARNING -- extremely dangerous**. It will simply force remove, without consideration of being a dataset, a file, or a directory or any other option given to uninstall. To be used only with full awareness of its consequences. [Default: False] --if-dirty {fail,save-before,ignore} desired behavior if a dataset with unsaved changes is discovered: 'fail' will trigger an error and further processing is aborted; 'save-before' will save all changes prior any further action; 'ignore' let's datalad proceed as if the dataset would not have unsaved changes. [Default: 'save-before']
