DESCRIPTION¶

Removes unused imports and unused variables as reported by pyflakes.

OPTIONS¶

-c, --check

return error code if changes are needed

-cd, --check-diff

return error code if changes are needed, also display file diffs

--imports IMPORTS

by default, only unused standard library imports are removed; specify a comma- separated list of additional modules/packages

--remove-all-unused-imports

remove all unused imports (not just those from the standard library)

-r, --recursive

drill down directories recursively

-j n, --jobs n

number of parallel jobs; match CPU count if value is 0 (default: 0)

--exclude globs

exclude file/directory names that match these comma-separated globs

--expand-star-imports

expand wildcard star imports with undefined names; this only triggers if there is only one star import in the file; this is skipped if there are any uses of `__all__` or `del` in the file

--ignore-init-module-imports

exclude __init__.py when removing unused imports

--remove-duplicate-keys

remove all duplicate keys in objects

--remove-unused-variables

remove unused variables

--remove-rhs-for-unused-variables

remove RHS of statements when removing unused variables (unsafe)

--ignore-pass-statements

ignore all pass statements

--ignore-pass-after-docstring

ignore pass statements after a newline ending on '"""'

--version

show program's version number and exit

--quiet

Suppress output if there are no issues

-v, --verbose

print more verbose logs (you can repeat `-v` to make it more verbose)

--stdin-display-name STDIN_DISPLAY_NAME

the name used when processing input from stdin

--config CONFIG_FILE

Explicitly set the config file instead of auto determining based on file location

-i, --in-place

make changes to files instead of printing diffs

-s, --stdout

print changed text to stdout. defaults to true when formatting stdin, or to false otherwise
