Devpi Cleaner

Coverage Status Latest Version

Léon, the devpi cleaner, enables batch removal of artefacts from a devpi server. Given a package and version specification, it will remove the specified versions of a package from either a single index or all indices of a given user.

Rationale

Devpi cleaner wraps the original devpi remove command. It provides the following extensions:

  • Conditionally limit removal to development packages.
  • Conditionally limit removal to versions matching a given regular expression.
  • Temporarily switch non-volatile indices to volatile.
  • Apply a remove operation to all indices of a user.
  • Throttle removal activities if the Devpi server is having difficulties keeping up.

Léon by Example

The following command will delete all development packages preceding version 0.2 of delete_me on index index1 of the user:

> devpi-cleaner http://localhost:2414/ user/index1 'delete_me<=0.2' --dev-only
Password:
Packages to be deleted from user/index1:
 * delete_me 0.2.dev1 on user/index1
 * delete_me 0.2.dev2 on user/index1
Cleaning user/index1…

As shown, packages will be listed and confirmation required before they are actually deleted from the server.

Commandline Usage

                     server user[/index] package_specification

A utility to batch-remove packages from a Devpi server.

positional arguments:
  server                The devpi server to operate on.
  user[/index]          The index from which to remove the packages. If only
                        the user part is specified, all indices of that user
                        will be cleaned.

                        The specification of the package version(s) to remove.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --batch               Assume yes on confirmation questions.
  --dev-only            Remove only development versions as specified by PEP
                        440.
  --version-filter REGEX
                        Remove only versions in which the given regular
                        expression can be found.
  --force               Temporarily make indices volatile to enable package
                        removal.
  --password PASSWORD   The password with which to authenticate.
  --login LOGIN         The user name to user for authentication. Defaults to
