Clean up "temp_data" .FDF files after processing #69

Open itjustwerks opened 6 years ago

itjustwerks commented 6 years ago

I'm wondering why the "temp_data****.fdf" files stick around after a file has been processed. Is it possible to have them cleaned up so they don't consume space? I'm running this on a Google Cloud instance, and would prefer not to have to worry about growing disk space. I would just schedule a job to remove them all at some interval, but I wouldn't want to delete one that was in use by a current processing job. Thoughts?

typically if you put them in /tmp it will be cleaned up by the OS any time the machine reboots
