"Zap that cache!"
# nuka-code
A package brought to you by the Nuka-Cola Corporation to zap away those pesky `cache`, `node_modules`, and other related files & directories.
[](https://github.com/zrosenbauer/nuka-code/actions/workflows/ci.yaml)
[](https://biomejs.dev)
## Usage
```bash
npx nuka-code --help
```
OR
```bash
npm install -g nuka-code
nuka-code --help # or nuke --help
```
## What is this?
Nuka-Code is a CLI tool that removes the need to manually remove `cache`, `node_modules`, and other related files & directories. This can replace the usage of `rimraf` or other similar tools, to clean up your project aka restore
it to a clean state (sort of like the first time you `git clone` your repo).
## What does it do?
This package will nuke (delete aka `rm -rf`) the following:
- cache (`.turbo`, `.vite`, `.next`, etc.)
- node_modules
- build artifacts (`dist`, `out`, `build`, `bundle`, etc.)
You can view a full list of globs [here](./docs/globs.md).
> [!WARNING]
> By default, Nuka-Code SHOULD NOT nuke anything important like `package-lock.json`, `src/**/*.ts`, `yarn.lock`, but as with all things, use at your own risk.
## Troubleshooting
### Oops I nuked the wrong thing...
Unless you passed in the `--force` flag, Nuka-Code will ask you for confirmation before nuking anything... so please `git commit` your changes before running `nuka-code`!
### Its not deleting everything I want it to
Please open an issue with what you want to add to the nuke list and we'll see, we also are considering adding a `nuke.config.ts` file to allow for more customization but for now simplicity is the name of the game.
