+# Capsule Log Retention
+
+I wrote previously that I had setup stats based on my servers access logs. I noted at the bottom that I was clearing my logs to keep somewhat compliant with user privacy.
+
+## Deleting logs older than 7 days
+
+I wrote a daily cronjob to remove any log lines older than 7 days from my access.log
+
+```retention.sh
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+
+set -e
+
+LOGFILE=$1
+
+mindate=$(head -n1 $LOGFILE | cut -f1 | cut -d'T' -f1)
+maxdate=$(date --date="-6 days" -u -Id)
+
+echo "Deleting log lines from ${mindate} to ${maxdate}"
+
+sed -i -E "/${mindate}/,/${maxdate}/d" $LOGFILE
+
+echo "Cleared logs"
+```
+
+### Date command
+
+I had no idea you could do relative dates! I am not surprised bur it was nice to find out since it meant I could do this entirely in bash.
+
+## What this is doing
+
+I essentially take two dates: the first date in the file, and the inclusive date I want to remove logs for. Then using the magic of sed, remove all the lines that match between those dates.
+
+### Sed
+
+I do a lot of bash scripting for """productivity""". Sed is an amazing utility that I find allows me to do so much without needing to expand into other languages like awk or python.
+
+## Obfuscating any personal data
+
+The only "personal data" my access logs have are IPs. I am kicking around a good way to so I can still debug and trace requests, but for now keeping a week of logs should be compliant and hopefully personally reassuring.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Honestly, I find myself writing small script files like this (though this is basically just a sed command) to do day-to-day tasks. For instance my 'todo' app for work, to track asks, essentially just echos the args into a unique file in a directory. Then you can print the file contents to see whats open. Then using their UID to mark as done. 
+
+So I was happy to be able to quickly write this up to clear old logs. Do you do log rotation? Or just delete the old files?

 I use to listen to "Welcome to the Magic Tavern" which I REALLY enjoyed. However, I cannot pay attention to an "audio show" while doing OTHER things. So that limits how easily I can consume that type of content.
 
 I use to watch british panel shows while working at a job I was pretty much checked out of, but those are easy to "miss a joke in" because they moved on in a minute or two to a new story/joke.
