Cleaning

Why do we need it?

Because we constantly need to clean files which are not needed before starting a new test, we embedded our cleaning logic.

How does it work?

Note

Want to read the code ? It’s here Clean()!

It has an internal map of what has to be deleted and how.

How to clean?

For a simple clean, run PyFunceble with the --clean argument.

For a complete cleaning, run PyFunceble with the --clean-all argument.

Differences between simple and complete cleaning?

The --clean logic cleans the output/ directory along with the pyfunceble_tested table when the mariadb or mysql database type are choosen.

The --clean-all deletes all files generated along with the content of all database tables when the mariadb or mysql database type are choosen.

Warning

--clean-all does not delete the following files (even if generated by us):

• .pyfunceble-env
• whois_db.json

Warning

--clean-all does not delete the content of the following tables:

• pyfunceble_whois
