pip3-autoremove

This project has been rewritten from scratch to support new importlib implementation for python 3.10+.

• I was inspired by the following projects:
  • https://github.com/enjoysoftware/pip3-autoremove
  • https://github.com/tresni/pip-autoremove
  • and https://github.com/invl/pip-autoremove

Remove a package and its unused dependencies.
Supports Python3 and Python2.7(at least old builds).

This version also can remove packages listed in file like 'requirements.txt'.

Special Feature!

You can list and remove packages including their optional dependencies!

Usage:

pip-autoremove -f -e to check leaf packages including extra packages. Helps with managing packages like jupyterlab.

pip-autoremove -y -e jupyterlab to remove packages including their extra packages (recursive).
