hipchat-eraser

Recursivly delete your 1 on 1 chat history with someone for the entire year of 2014 to date.

install

npm install --global hipchat-eraser

use

hipchat-eraser

hipchat-eraser will prompt you for your hipchat email address, your hipchat password, and the name of the user who's chat you'd like to remove all messages to. You cannot delete their messages, only yours. Your personal information is never stored or shared, only used to log into the hipchat account securely from your own computer.

Under the covers hipchat-eraser uses phantomjs to crawl through your chat history with someone and delete your messages one by one. It can take several hours to delete a years worth of history.
