denomo-cli v1.0.1

denomo-cli

Denomo is a CLI utility that deletes nested node_modules directories

Use case

Denomo can be used in situations where you need to delete node_modules from lots of nested directories

Consider this: you need to transfer your Projects directory, that have 30 or 40 projects in it

And the best way to do that is to compress it into a single file

But you don't want to include all of the node_modules, so now you have to delete them manually

Denomo can help you with that

Install

Node v14.14.0 or above is required for running this utility!

npm i -g denomo-cli

Usage

Run Denomo from the terminal:

denomo ~/path/to/projects

The command above will delete all of the nested node_modules directories from ~/path/to/projects

Full path to the initial directory works as well:

denomo /Users/peter/path/to/projects

You will be notified at the end:

Done in 684 ms

Performance

Current implementation utilizes all of the available cores (number obtained with os.cpus().length)

This helps with the recursive directory parsing and allows Denomo to parse several directories at the same time

Use with care

This module interacts with the filesystem and deletes files. Be careful when running it, make sure that you provide the correct initial path

The / path will not be processed (just in case)
