rmvenv 0.1.1

Find and delete built environments

rmvenv

Command line app to list and delete build environments. This only leaves your source code and files to rebuild the environment, so they can be easily backed up.

This software can identify Python virtual environments, Rust's target directory, as well as .exe and java's .class files. If deleted, this can save gigabytes of space, and they can be easily recreated and the packages re-downloaded when the code needs to run again. This software can also show and delete files and folders over a given size.

However, the exact version of the software may change if dependences aren't managed well, and they may be removed from package repositories. Hopefully these errors are rare.

Installation

Requirements

• Python >= 3.10
• pip

I think it's OS independent, but I've not tested it outside of a Linux OS, so tread with caution.

Steps

Open the command line and run

pip install rmvenv

On some Linux distributions pipx may have to be used:

pipx install rmvenv

Example uses

On the command line, to list virtual environments in the currently directory, simply use:

rmvenv

To delete (interactively) build environments, as well as large files and folders over 1 gigabytes in the folder my_code:

rmvenv -s 1G -d my_code --delete
