What is the best way to clear out all the __pycache__
folders and .pyc
/.pyo
files from a Python project?
I have seen multiple users suggest the pyclean
script bundled with Debian, but this does not remove the folders. I want a simple way to clean up the project before pushing the files to my DVS.
Running py3clean .
cleaned it up very nicely.
Make sure you do not accidentally mistype pyclean
as pycclean
, otherwise you will get this error:
No command 'pycclean' found, did you mean:
Command 'py3clean' from package 'python3-minimal' (main)
Command 'pyclean' from package 'python-minimal' (main)
pycclean: command not found
