✨ KAS-CLEANALL ✨

okay bestie, welcome to kas-cleanall πŸ’… this is the kas cleanall command, straight out of the kas manual suite, and it's literally the "nuke it from orbit" button for your build dir 🌈


🌸 NAME 🌸

kas-cleanall β€” the kas cleanall command, aka your personal clutter demolition crew 🧹✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

kas cleanall [-h] [--dry-run] [--isar-privileged | --isar-rootless] [config]

that's the whole vibe right there, no cap πŸ”₯


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea β˜• β€” this command cleans build artifacts, sstate-cache and downloads.

like, all of it. it removes the build artifacts, empties the sstate cache, and wipes the downloads. it's giving spring cleaning but make it aggressive πŸŽ€


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

πŸ“ Positional Arguments

  • config β€” the config file(s), bestie, separated by a colon (:). if you don't specify one, it'll use .config.yaml inside KAS_WORK_DIR β€” but only if that file actually exists. if it's not there, well. πŸ™ˆ

🧚 Named Arguments

  • --dry-run=False β€” the look but don't touch mode 🫢 it does not remove anything, it just prints out what would have been removed. perfect for when you're feeling brave but not that brave.
  • --isar-privileged=False, --isar=False β€” use the ISAR (privileged) build directory layout πŸ‘‘ (yep, --isar is the same thing, just shorter β€” icon behavior honestly)
  • --isar-rootless=False β€” use the ISAR (rootless) build directory layout 🌱
heads up bestie: --isar-privileged and --isar-rootless are mutually exclusive β€” pick a lane 😭
