How to remove subgraph data

[ipetrov22]

Hey guys, I'm using a self-deployed graph-node connected to a custom chain. All works well, but its running out of storage quickly and I suspect there might be unused subgraph data.

When I run graph remove <SUBGRAPH_NAME> --node <ip> does this remove the DB data in postgres or it just unlinks the subgraph from its name? If it doesn't remove DB data what are the ways to do so?

I apologize if there is a duplicate issue, but I spent some time searching and couldn't find anything.

graphman remove only unlinks the data from the name. If the deployment is not used by any other names (you can check with graphman info -u <ipfs hash>) it will be unassigned at some point, and then deleted. There are some delays for safety built in so deleting the actual deployment data will take several hours (at least 6)

If you want to speed this up, you can manually do

graphman unassign <ipfs hash>
graphman unused record <ipfs hash>
graphman unused remove -d <ipfs hash>

The last command will actually delete the data (this all assumes that that deployment is not used by any other names)
