clean

Descriptionโ€‹

Performs the work directory cleanup.

The rl-secure CLI generates temporary files in the package store while analyzing your packages. When the analysis is complete and the report successfully created, those files are no longer needed.

Generally, users are not required to remove those temporary files, as rl-secure cleans them up automatically. However, if you need to remove them for any reason, you can do it with this command.

Cleaning the external work directory

Some commands allow decoupling the package store and the work directory. When the temporary files are stored outside of any package store, the clean command cannot be used to perform the cleanup.

Instead, users should manually delete those temporary files after the processing is done.

Clean up temporary filesโ€‹

In this example, we're specifying the path to a package store. The command will clean up the work directory only for that package store.

rl-secure clean -s /home/armando/my-repository/
