# Dir Cleaner

A simple tool to scan and remove unwanted directories from your system.

It may takes between 10 or 15 seconds if you pass a path 200Gb and 2 million files. It's really fast if you narrow the search.

It was used as a demo on our internal Golang program. It contains different versions with improvements.

## Installation

Go to [release page](https://github.com/guumaster/dir-cleaner/releases) and download the binary you need.

## Examples to remove all node_modules

```bash

$> dir-cleaner --path / --pattern node_modules

// Output:

Path: [/]: Scanned 2,045,830 files. Matched 254,183 in 2,731 directories. [1.9 GB]

```
