delete_file Method
Deletes a vault item.
Syntax
def delete_file(file_name: str) -> None: ...
Remarks
This method deletes the vault item (file, directory, symbolic link, or alternate stream) specified by FileName from the vault.
The value passed for FileName must be a vault-local absolute path.
Please note that:
- When a file is deleted, any alternate streams it contains are deleted as well.
- Directories must be empty to be deleted, otherwise this method raises an exception. Use the is_directory_empty method to check whether a directory is empty.
- Deleting a symbolic link only deletes the link itself, not the file it points to.
Note: This method can only be called when active is True, and cannot be called within events.
