rm-empty-targets

rm-empty-targets.py

This script is an example of how to use the Snyk API to find and remove all empty targets from a Snyk group. It uses pysnyk to make a list of the orgs in the group, and then makes use of the following APIs to enumerate and delete the targets:

• Get targets by org ID
• Delete target by target ID

The algorithm used by this example is as follows:

- Get list of orgs
- For each org:
    - get all the targets for the org
    - get all the non-empty targets for the org (use the "excludeEmpty" filter)
    - find the empty targets by comparing the non-empty list with the complete list and using the difference
    - add the empty targets to a dictionary of targets keyed by organization ID
- Iterate through the dictionary of empty targets and delete each one

The script outputs a list of the org/targets that were deleted (or would have been deleted, if omitting --delete flag) to stdout, one per line.

Example use:

dry-run:

python3 rm-empty-targets.py $SNYK_GROUP_ID

actual deleting:

python3 rm-empty-targets.py $SNYK_GROUP_ID --delete
