pip3-autoremove
This project has been rewritten from scratch to support new importlib implementation for python 3.10+.
- I was inspired by the following projects:
Remove a package and its unused dependencies.
Supports Python3 and Python2.7 (at least old builds).
This version also can remove packages listed in file like 'requirements.txt'.
Special Feature!
You can list and remove packages including their optional dependencies!
Usage:
pip-autoremove -f -eto check leaf packages including extra packages.Helps with managing packages like
jupyterlab.
pip-autoremove -y -e jupyterlabto remove packages including their extra packages (recursive).
How to install
- How to install pip3-autoremove for Python:
sudo pip install pip3-autoremove
Usage
