French Maid v0.1.0

Are you a python developer who also/only uses windows and are sick are tired of constantly deteting those pesky __pycache__ directories? Fear not, frenchmaid is here to help! frenchmaid is a CLI tool written in pure python that will look in your entire project directory and delete any __pycache__ folders (and the files within) in your app directory.

Installation

pip install frenchmaid

or

pip3 install frenchmaid

Usage

In any terminal window:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents\example-app> frenchmaid clean

It's really that simple, just ensure that you are in you project's root folder! For clarity, the above example assumes that your project structure is something like this for example:

example-app/
|________ main.py
|________ requirements.txt
|________ src/
         |-------- __init__.py
         |-------- app.py

If the root is example-app then you can see that the terminal should be in that folder.
