copick cache clear

core

Remove the portal cache to force a refresh.

Usage

copick cache clear [OPTIONS]

Description

Deletes the on-disk CryoET Data Portal query cache for the project so the next process re-queries the portal and rewrites the cache. Does not contact the portal itself. By default only the cache file matching the current configuration is removed; pass --all to clear every portal cache file in the cache directory (useful when the project's pickable objects changed and the old cache no longer matches).

Options

Option Type Default Description
-c, --config path Path to the configuration file.
--all boolean flag False Remove every portal cache file in the cache directory, not just the current fingerprint (use after changing the project's pickable objects).
--yes, -y boolean flag False Do not prompt for confirmation.
--debug / --no-debug boolean flag False Enable debug logging.

Examples

# Invalidate the cache for a portal-backed project
copick cache clear -c cdp_config.json

# Clear all portal cache files without confirmation
copick cache clear -c cdp_config.json --all --yes
