Folder Cleaner Script

made-with-python Maintenance GitHub

This script allows you to clean up a directory. The script expects the directory path as an argument.

WARNING : The script will clean all the contents of the directory without any verification, make sure that what you are going to clean is not important data.

What is the purpose of this script ?

The goal is to automate the script to clean the folders every x times, for example a registry folder that needs to be cleaned every day because it takes up a lot of space.

What is the correct way to use this script ?

Windows

If you want to automate the script in Windows, you must create a .bat file that runs the script. To automate it, you can use Task Scheduler, see here Schedule Python Script in Windows

Mac OS X / Linux

If you want to automate the script in OSX or Linux, you must create a cron job, see here Schedule a Python Script using Cron Job

    -p, --path          folder path to clean
