Remove Release

Stable

Removing a release from the Daemon deactivates it if it is enabled, cancels any in-progress downloads or extractions, deletes the release's files from disk, and removes all records of the release from the Daemon's local store.

Property	Value
Applies to	Daemon
Trigger	User requests that a previously added release be removed
Preconditions	The release has been added to the Daemon

Inputs

releaseId : String, required. The identifier of the release to remove.

Assertions

Assertion	Status
None — removal proceeds regardless of the release's current state

Outputs

void : The operation always completes. Disable failures (e.g. DCS path not configured) are logged as warnings but do not prevent removal.

Effects

Effect	Status
If the release is enabled, symlinks are removed from disk using installed paths stored in the Daemon's local store	Implemented
If the release is enabled and the DCS path is configured, `Scripts/DropzoneMissionScriptsBeforeSanitize.lua` is rebuilt	Implemented
If the release is enabled and the DCS path is configured, `Scripts/DropzoneMissionScriptsAfterSanitize.lua` is rebuilt	Implemented
If the release is enabled and the DCS path is configured, `removeSymlinks.bat` is rebuilt	Implemented
If the DCS path is not configured, the disable step logs a warning and proceeds with cleanup	Implemented
Any in-progress or queued download and extract jobs are cancelled	Implemented
The release's files are deleted from the mods directory	Implemented
If the mods directory is not configured, file deletion is skipped without blocking removal	Implemented
All job records associated with the release are cleared	Implemented
