This one could easily be done by regularily scheduling a simple jscript deleting all files older than a specific date. Additionally you could also do things like packing old logs and move them to a different location. This approach reduces complexity of wpkg and still gives you all the flexibility you need. However what IMHO is still missing is the flexibility to specify that logs are appended and not overwritten. If you look at other apps you will find that appending to logs it the most often default behavour for logging because this ensures that no important information gets lost. Just my 2 cents. grubi. |
