How to delete a stream
Created 7 years ago by kiltedup

Hi,

Is there a documented correct or recommended way to delete a stream that is no longer required in a module.

I have deleted one and ended up with a slew of class not found and migration not found errors.

Managed to clean it up but curious for next time the correct way to do it.

TIA, Dave

Usually you would use a migration for this: https://pyrocms.com/documentation/streams-platform/latest#database/migrations/generating-migrations/default-migrations

And it will clean things up. Sounds like you just deleted the migration / namespace? You can do that but definitely wanna run the migration to remove it first. $this->streams() in the example provided is just the StreamRepositoryInterface so you can do it programmatically that way too if it's not something you have a migration for.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the reply - I was deleting the stream through the migration so not sure what went wrong. At least I was doing it right 😄
