 ## Scripts
 
-### `node run-initDb.js`
-
-Initializes a user database from existing folders. Useful if you have a pre-existing archive of users.
-
-Args:
-- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
-
-Example:
-- `node run-initDb.js --path=/mnt/data/archive` will read all child directories in `/mnt/data/archive` (e.g. `/mnt/data/archive/userA`, `/mnt/data/archive/userB`, etc.) and create a `db.json` file in `/mnt/data/archive` listing the users.
-
 ### `node run-downloadDb.js`
 
-Runs a full download of all users listed in the db.json of the archive (the provided `--path`).

 ## TODO
 
-### `run-updateDb.js`
-
-Should pull from the user database and update the archive without doing a full download. The DB should save with a lastUpdated field. This should be used as a date for the `/search` API. Preferred if it's been a long time since an update has happened for a user and/or the user has uploaded a significant amount of media since lastUpdated.
-Note: if you've updated the DB recently, it may be more performant to run `node run-downloadDb.js` with `--args="-A {#}"` to simply run the `/media` check instead of the `/search` check, where `-A` will abort the user after `{#}` tries.

 ### `run-renameUser.js`

-### Rename Detection
-
-Should detect renames when running `/search`. Occasionally `/media` will fail due to the rename, but `/search` will return results, causing a full download from `/search` and adding the user to the db without notice. This should stop the download and print out an error that they've been updated from `username` to `username`. Because the command will have already finished `/media` and thus be halfway through the process, this should be done manually after the command has finished.
