You can also use `bibdocfile' for this. I don't think wildcards are
supported there yet (CC-ing Sam), but you can relatively easily script
these operations in the meantime, along the lines of:
$ /opt/cds-invenio/bin/bibdocfile --recid 88 --get-docnames
88:84:0307041 # this output means `recid:docid:docname'
$ sudo -u apache /opt/cds-invenio/bin/bibdocfile --recid 88 --docname 0307041
--delete --yes-i-know
for every docfile outputted for the given record. This will schedule
proper FFT bibupload -c tasks to delete the full-text files.
P.S. Sam, can you please look at the wildcard support in bibdocfile?
(Or maybe introduce a new option named like `--delete-all'.)
Ideally one should be able to do things like:
$ bibdocfile --collection Theses --delete-all
$ bibdocfile --collection Pictures --delete '*funny*'
