I have been searching the forums for a delete script that deletes all nodes of specific class, but with no luck. Can someone share a script that has this function?

Hi,

Here is the simple function which delete nodes of specyfic class

/**
 * @param array $classID
 * @param int $parentNodeID
 * @param int $depth
 */
function deleteNodes ( $classID, $parentNodeID, $depth )
{

	$deleteIDArray = array();

	$nodeArray =& eZContentObjectTreeNode::subTree(  array(
	'ClassFilterType' => 'include',
	'ClassFilterArray' => $classID,
	'Depth' => $depth,
	), $parentNodeID
	);
	foreach ( $nodeArray as $node )
	{
		$deleteIDArray[] = $node->attribute( 'main_node_id' );
	}

	eZContentObjectTreeNode::removeSubtrees( $deleteIDArray, false );
}

//Delete all articles from root folder, only from first level. 
deleteNodes ( array( 2 ), 2, 1 );

This function will not move to trash, not check permissions. If you need that features, feel free to edit;)

Good luck!

It's not working!

I tried this

<?php
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezcontentobjecttreenode.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezcontentobject.php' );
/**
 * @param array $classID
 * @param int $parentNodeID
 * @param int $depth
 */

 function deleteNodes ( $classID, $parentNodeID, $depth )
{

	$deleteIDArray = array();

	$nodeArray =& eZContentObjectTreeNode::subTree(  array(
	'ClassFilterType' => 'include',
	'ClassFilterArray' => $classID,
	'Depth' => $depth,
	), $parentNodeID
	);
	foreach ( $nodeArray as $node )
	{
		$deleteIDArray[] = $node->attribute( 'main_node_id' );
	}

	eZContentObjectTreeNode::removeSubtrees( $deleteIDArray, false );
}

//Delete all rss from root folder, all level???. 
deleteNodes ( array( 35 ), 2, 0 );
?>

php rssrm.php from ez publish folder: error on line 21

line 21; foreach ( $nodeArray as $node )

Of course that will not work like this, you will have to make it as cli script, look in to bin/php/ or as extension or tpl operator.

so something like this

<?php
include_once( 'lib/ezutils/classes/ezcli.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezscript.php' );

$cli =& eZCLI::instance();
$script =& eZScript::instance( array( 'description' => ( "eZ publish Content Cache Handler\n" .
                                                         "Allows for easy clearing of Content Caches\n" .
                                                         "\n" .
                                                         "Clearing node for content and users tree\n" .
                                                         "./bin/ezcontentcache.php --clear-node=/,5\n" .

                                      'use-extensions' => true ) );

$script->startup();
$options = $script->getOptions();
$script->initialize();

set_time_limit( 0 );


include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezcontentobjecttreenode.php' );

	{
		$deleteIDArray[] = $node->attribute( 'main_node_id' );
	}

	eZContentObjectTreeNode::removeSubtrees( $deleteIDArray, false );
}

//Delete all rss from root folder, only from first level. 
deleteNodes ( array( 35 ), 2, 0 );

$script->shutdown();
?>

Use this, set correct login and password, since you need user with remove access, and set depth 1 if you remove from class which is container.

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezcontentobjecttreenode.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezcontentobject.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/datatypes/ezuser/ezuser.php' );

include_once( 'lib/ezutils/classes/ezcli.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezscript.php' );

$cli =& eZCLI::instance();
$script =& eZScript::instance();

$script->startup();

$script->initialize();

/**
 * @param array $classID
 * @param int $parentNodeID
 * @param int $depth
 * @param string $login
 * @param string $password
 */
function &deleteNodes ( $classID, $parentNodeID, $depth, $login, $password )
{
	eZUser::loginUser( $login, $password );

	$deleteIDArray = array();

	$nodeArray =& eZContentObjectTreeNode::subTree(  array(
	'ClassFilterType' => 'include',
	'ClassFilterArray' => $classID,
	'Depth' => $depth,
	), $parentNodeID
	);
	foreach ( $nodeArray as $node )
	{
		$deleteIDArray[] = $node->attribute( 'main_node_id' );
	}

	eZContentObjectTreeNode::removeSubtrees( $deleteIDArray, false );
}

deleteNodes ( array( 2 ), 2, 1, 'admin', '1234' );

$script->shutdown();
?>

Run from eZ publish root.

It's a praise error on line 46 in your latest version of this script

"v 2" works

include_once( 'lib/ezutils/classes/ezcli.php' );
include_once( 'kernel/classes/ezscript.php' );

$cli =& eZCLI::instance();
$script =& eZScript::instance();

$script->startup();

$script->initialize();

/**

 */
function &deleteNodes ( $classID, $parentNodeID, $depth )
{	
	eZUser::loginUser( 'admin', '1234' );
	
	$deleteIDArray = array();

	$nodeArray =& eZContentObjectTreeNode::subTree(  array(
															'ClassFilterType' => 'include',

													);
	foreach ( $nodeArray as $node )

	}

	eZContentObjectTreeNode::removeSubtrees( $deleteIDArray, false );
}


deleteNodes ( array( 2 ), 2, 1 );

$script->shutdown();

Hmm, are sure? My editor display correct syntax.

Correct version is, tested and works.

Ok it works :-) This function must bee included in EZ, because old rss feeds are useless unless you are running some kind of feed archive.
