Neil,
I tried your suggestion and I am getting the error below.
Config file:
bundle agent deleteLocalFolder
{
files:
"/tmp/test/create_folder1/create_folder2"
comment => "delete local folders",
include_basedir => "true",
# include_dirs => { "/tmp/test/create_folder1/create_folde.*"
},
# depth_search => recurse("inf"),
# file_select =>
specifyFile("/tmp/test/create_folder1/create_fo.*"),
delete => tidy;
}
Error:

This is because the promise is too vague. As a best practise, each promise
should traget a specific directory and no wild card. If you are not certain of
the number you could use a loop.
# untested code
vars:
"del_dirs" ilist => { "1","2","3","4"};
files:
"/tmp/test/create_folder${del_dirs}"
comment = "Delete folders ending in del_dirs numbers",
include_basedir => "true",
delete => tidy;
