Greegrass v2: Deleting a local deployment

Question

I've been using local deployments (`bin/greengrass-cli deployment create`) during development of my Component. I'm at the point where I'm happy with it and want to do a clean deploy to verify I have all the right settings before I start a publish/deploy/test cycle. I tried deleting the package manually on the machine, but that doesn't fix things.

The main reason I want to do this is, during development, I was editing the recipe in the LocalDebugConsole webpage and it seems that now any updates to my source package recipe don't make it to the _effective_ config (at least through local deployments). Without deleting my container volume and starting over, is there a way to delete/reset/clear/clean these local deployments or otherwise get my recipe to use the source recipe instead of the locally edited one?

To delete a local deployment use the greengrass-cli with a command similar to:

```
sudo /greengrass/v2/bin/greengrass-cli \
    --ggcRootPath /greengrass/v2 deployment create \
    --remove "your.component.without.version"
```

Cheers,

Philipp

Hi Casey

By "editing the recipe in the LocalDebugConsole webpage", do you mean you edit the "Running config" section under the detail page of your component?
