removal of device nodes using meshctrl

[Takeiteasyeh]

I have not found a way to actually remove a device through meshctrl.js after issuing an uninstall command and have not found another workaround other than doing it from inside the meshcentral ui.

Can this be added to meshctrl?

Your right. I had not noticed this, working on adding that now.

Added "removedevice" to meshctrl.js, will be in MeshCentral v1.0.98.

Sorry to reopen, but im trying to remove all offline from one group, but i think meshctrl is waiting for uninstall, because removedevice return 'ok' but dont remove the device from group/meshcentral

whats the command/exmaple you are using?

[tiagogbarbosa]

/srv/meshc/node_modules/meshcentral/meshctrl.js --url wss://mesh.xxxxxxx:443 RemoveDevice --loginuser xxxxxxxxx --loginpass xxxxxxxxx --id 'Y9UVQggLEoMSEpB2pmvY@EKoe7iYnXVYUVLwSuySVup3AOMSaHZyjGQlJFK5DnNi'

return "ok"

/srv/meshc/node_modules/meshcentral/meshctrl.js --url wss://mesh.xxxxxxx:443 RemoveDevice --loginuser xxxxxxxxx --loginpass xxxxxxxxx --id 'Y9UVQggLEoMSEpB2pmvY@EKoe7iYnXVYUVLwSuySVup3AOMSaHZyjGQlJFK5DnNi'

return "ok"

are you running the command from the meshcentral server itself or remotely?

[tiagogbarbosa]

it self, i think the command is correct, because i can listdevices and any other command, but, removedevice wont remove, just return ok

[si458]

never used the meshctrl but yeh just tried it and its the same here!
it doesnt remove a computer thats inactive i specify
weird?

@tiagogbarbosa found the bug for you! doing a PR soon to fix for you

WORKAROUND: if using the normal domain send --id as node//IDGOESHERE if using a subdomain use node/DOMAINHERE/IDGOESHERE
