SD memory card is slowly filling up

@sdetweil
I was able to do something and I found this post:
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/917/pm2-logs/7
I then entered the command “pm2 flush” and I already have 21GB of free space again, that looks very good.
could I automate something like that? or deactivate the pm2 log?

@drx1984 I gave u the pm2 flush command

if u install winscp on your pc box, and enable ssh on your pi, you can get a file manager.over the pi files from your pc
then just double click to edit like u do on the pc. right click to rename/delete

I would have looked at the log to find out what modules are generating all that content.

far as I know there is no way to turn off the log.

maybe
pm2 help
would some some options

@drx1984

also file location

~
means users home folder
so when logged on as pi, that means
/home/pi

so from my post
~/.pm2/logs means
/home/pi/.pm2/logs

u can get there over ssh, or using a terminal window on the pi, or a file manager on the pi, just like u do on widows

yes I had already installed the program WinSCP, but I don’t see this folder pm2 ??? ( see image)

Yes that would be interesting which modules cause these logs. next time I won’t just delete it.

I saw that there is a tool for deleting the pm2 log, do you know it: https://github.com/keymetrics/pm2-logrotate
