Cleaning Up
How to deprovision everything you created with Plural
Cleaning Up Your Environment
If you were testing and want to clean up your environment, there are two steps:
- Remove any infrastructure managed by Plural. This should involve:
- Delete the Plural Stacks you set up. Be sure to do this via a GitOps process, not the UI, as our operator will recreate the stack if you do not.
- Delete the services that might also spawn resources, especially those that create load balancers.
- This is often doable by reverting the PRs we generate to provision that infra.
- From there, run
plural downorplural down --cloudif you were using Plural Cloud.
The plural down command
The plural down command is a simple wrapper around what is effectively:
cd terraform/mgmt && terraform init && terraform destroy
If for whatever reason it isn't working for you, you can always fall back to running Terraform manually.
