Scripts

Scripts with utilities:

  • As a script file:
python venv_cleaner.py

You can delete venvs with different name than 'venv' using the optional argument -vn or --venvname.

Why Coffeece?

The main reason behind this little classes is that a huge part of the mechanical work at a job office can be automated through this kind of objects. The other reason to use this is to make office scripts cleaner with an — even more — simplified dependency management.
