✨ NAME ✨

cpigs — bestie, it shows you which installed packages are out here hogging the most variable space 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cpigs [options]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the vibe: cpigs takes your installed packages, sorts them by size — straight out of the cruft-ng database — and then outputs the biggest ones. It's giving "who ate all the disk space" investigative journalism 🔍

Per default, dpigs displays the largest 10 packages. You can change that number whenever you want with the -n option (peep the OPTIONS section, it's right there 🫶).

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • [-n] N — shows you the N largest packages chilling on your system (default is 10). No cap.
  • -c — exports in a plain .csv format, and it's only the volatile files. Just the chaos, nothing else 🍓
  • -C — exports the whole system statuc in that same .csv format, and this time it also includes the static files that dpkg manages. The full picture, periodt 💅
  • -e — exports in the JSON format that "ncdu" is expecting. ncdu girlies, this one's for you 🦋
