Removing nodebb totally

[xpcontact]

Can someone point me to how to totally remove nodebb from the server in order to perform new fresh install?

# assuming you're on a linux based server
cd /to/your/nodebb/parent/directory
# assuming you haven't changed the name of the root directory
rm -rf NodeBB

that's it, now you can

git clone https://github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB.git
cd NodeBB 
npm install
node app --setup

Thank you for the quick answer, was doing same, but thought might be some other files to delete

new fresh install

depends on what that means.

The database stores it's data outside of the nodebb-directory.

If you use MongoDB I guess the command is like

> mongo
> use nodebb
> db.dropDatabase()

Thank you, I am using redis db... I did re-install nodebb, looks easy and fine: http://forum.caffeh.com:4567/
Now my real problem will be again, how to configure nginx as proxy for apache server... I tried (for last 5 days) all existing solution what everyone suggested in vain
but I AM NOT GOING TO GIVE UP, I love NodeBB
