Simple tool to clean some of the stuff created by XCode.
Looks at next locations and tries to remove some of the stuff located here:
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/watchOS DeviceSupport
~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices
/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator
brew install deszip/tools/xclean
Cleans some of the stuff created by XCode.
Usage:
xclean [-l] <TARGET> [-r] <TARGET> [-t] <TIMEOUT> [-a] <APPNAME>
Arguments:
<TARGET> Traget to clean. Available targets: DerivedData, Archives, DeviceSupport, CoreSimulator
<TIMEOUT> Timeout value in seconds.
<APPNAME> Name of the app as it appears in simulator, CFBundleDisplayName key from Info.plist.
Options:
-l --list <TARGET> Lists files that could be relatively safely removed.
Pass target name to list only it.
If no value passed - uses all targets.
-r --remove <TARGET> Removes files listed by -l
-t --timeout <TIMEOUT> Sets interval for assuming file is old.
-r and -l will process only files with last access date older than timeout
-a -app <APPNAME> Sets application name for filtering in simulators. Used only for CoreSimulator target.
e.g. xclean -l CoreSimulator -a SomeApp will list all instances of 'SomeApp' in simulators.
-v --version Print the version of the application
Some examples:
- List all targets showing info on how much space could be freed
xclean -l - Same as above but only for derived data
xclean -l DerivedData - Removes all derived data older than an hour
xclean -r DerivedData -t 3600
