Installation and usage

Installation

Pycln requires Python 3.7+ and can be easily installed using the most common Python packaging tools. We recommend installing the latest stable release from PyPI with pip:

$ pip install pycln

Usage

By default Pycln will remove any unused import statement, So the simplest usage is to specify the path only:

$ pycln [PATH]

Also, it's possible to run pycln as a package:

$ python3 -m pycln [PATH]

NOTE: you may need to use -a/--all option for more satisfying results. see -a/--all flag.

Further information can be found in our docs:

• Usage and Configuration

Configuration

Pycln is able to read project-specific default values for its command line options from a configuration file like pyproject.toml or setup.cfg. This is especially useful for specifying custom CLI arguments/options like path/paths, --include, --exclude/--extend-exclude, or even --all.

You can find more details in our documentation:

• --config [PATH] CLI option
