My First Plugin

Asset Sweeper


This rails plugin is for cleaning up rails application by removing unused images.

You can find this plugin at:

Installation:

ruby script/plugin install git@github.com:anilg/asset_sweeper.git

Usage:

Run rake task :
rake asset_sweeper:sweep -t

This rake task scans for all images (.jpg, .png, .gif) in application (html, css, js files) and create a folder named unused in applications root directory and list all images which are not used in application. But if image name is constructed dynamically in code this script will list such images also and images in assets/attachments like folder will be listed so you need to verify images in that folder before deleting.
