local temporary files not cleaned?

[geomagilles]

Hi, thanks for your package. I use it to store my backup files on S3. But unfortunately, temporary files are still created on /tmp and not deleted. This quickly saturate my filesystem :(

Normally the OS takes care of cleaning that directory. On Ubuntu it is cleared on every reboot by default. You can also manually specify how frequently it should be cleared.

Hi, I encountered the same issue.
Here is an example console task I added to my app/Console/Kernel.php file to clean up the temporary files.

$schedule->exec("find /tmp -mtime +2 -name 'laravel-backup*' -and -exec rm {} ';'")->daily();

This wil remove temporary files from the /tmp directory that are older than 2 days and whose file name starts with "laravel-backup".
