mstssk / cleandir

Cleanup directories for Node.js.

cleandir

cleandir just empty output directories.

• Single purpose and feature.
  • Empty compiler's output directories.
  • Remain specified top directory.
    • .gitkeep and .keep is also remained.
• Very tiny!
  • No dependencies.

More complicated deleting?

I recommend to use rimraf, if you want conditional deleting.
