# Cleanup Channel
|
|
|
|
A Mattermost plugin that lets system administrators remove all messages from a channel.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Channel menu action**: "Remove all messages" appears in the channel header menu for system administrators only.
|
|
- **Slash command**: `/cleanup-channel` removes all messages from the current channel (system administrators only).
|
|
- **Defense in depth**: Both the web app and server verify that the user is a system administrator before performing any cleanup.
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make dist
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The plugin bundle is written to `dist/com.fmartingr.mattermost-plugin-cleanup-channel-*.tar.gz`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
1. Upload and enable the plugin in **System Console → Plugins → Plugin Management**.
|
|
2. As a system administrator, open a channel and use the channel header menu (**⋯**) → **Remove all messages**.
|
|
3. Or run `/cleanup-channel` in the channel you want to clean up.
|
|
|
|
Both actions ask for confirmation before deleting messages.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make deploy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
