confluent local destroy

Description

Delete an existing Confluent Platform run. All running services are stopped and the data and the log files of all services are deleted.

Important

The confluent local commands are intended for a single-node development environment and are not suitable for a production environment. The data that are produced are transient and are intended to be temporary. For production-ready workflows, see Install and Upgrade.

confluent local destroy --path <path-to-confluent>

Flags

Tip

You must either specify the path for each Confluent CLI confluent local command invocation, export the path as an environment variable for each terminal session, or set the path to your Confluent Platform installation in your shell profile. For example:

cat ~/.bash_profile
export CONFLUENT_HOME=<path-to-confluent>
export PATH="${CONFLUENT_HOME}/bin:$PATH"

Name, shorthand	Description
--path <path-to-confluent>	Path to Confluent Platform install directory.
-h, --help	Print command information.
