Cargo Wipe

Cargo subcommand that recursively finds and optionally wipes all "target" or "node_modules" folders that are found in the current path.

Usage

Install

The Rust toolchain is a prerequisite.

cargo install cargo-wipe

Read the docs

cargo wipe --help

Use

To find build folders for <language> that can potentially be deleted run

cargo wipe <language>

where <language> is rust or node. For example:

cargo wipe rust

This will run in dry-run mode and just print the list of directories to delete. To actually delete them run it again with the -w flag.

cargo wipe rust -w

Directories are found according to the following logic:

• rust: all directories called target containing a file called .rustc_info.json.
• node: all directories called node_modules.

You can use the -i <path> argument to ignore certain paths.
