Vagrant remove old box versions plugin

This plugin enables you to automatically remove old vagrant boxes from you host. Just run vagrant remove-old-versions and it will check your downloaded boxes and remove every box that is not the lastest downloaded version.

Internally it uses vagrant box list to get a list of boxes, and vagrant box remove --box-version xxx --provider xxx so it still has all safeguards you expect from vagrant.

Installation

vagrant plugin install vagrant-remove-old-box-versions

Usage

Usage: vagrant remove-old-versions [options]

Options:

    -p, --provider PROVIDER          The specific provider type for the boxes to destroy.
    -n, --dry-run                    Only print the boxes that would be removed.
        --name NAME                  The specific box name to destroy.
    -f, --force                      Destroy without confirmation even when box is in use.
