database shouldn't store game stats forever about glest-masterserver HOT 7 CLOSED

Kinda looks like you have this - cleanupGameStats()

Looks like it is never called however?

@craigpotter very likely. We didn't write the original code, as this is a fork of MegaGlest. Though we've updated a lot of code, there's still a lot that hasn't been reviewed yet. Can you tell if that function works, and just needs to be called somehow?

@sexybiggetje Would it be a good idea to just put the function in a separate file, then run it as a cron/scheduled job?

Sure that's fine, just wget / corl it and write the output to /dev/null :)

Hold off... I don't think this function will do it ... but it is close....

This function only purges games that are marked as "finished" and are less than 5 minutes duration.

Looking at https://zetaglest.dreamhosters.com/showPlayers.php, you can filter by day,week,month and all time.

I suggest I create you separate file which you can wget/curl or run via cronjob that wipes data over 3 months ?

Thoughts?

yeah, that sounds good. But purging at 1 month. I can set up the cron job on the host this code runs on.

No worries... Working on it now.
