SYNOPSIS

autoflake [-h] [-c | -cd] [--imports IMPORTS | --remove-all-unused-imports] [-r] [-j n] [--exclude globs] [--expand-star-imports] [--ignore-init-module-imports] [--remove-duplicate-keys] [--remove-unused-variables] [--remove-rhs-for-unused-variables] [--ignore-pass-statements] [--ignore-pass-after-docstring] [--version] [--quiet] [-v] [--stdin-display-name STDIN_DISPLAY_NAME] [--config CONFIG_FILE] [-i | -s] files [files ...]

DESCRIPTION

Removes unused imports and unused variables as reported by pyflakes.

OPTIONS

files
files to format
-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
