Janitor

What does this do?

This is a script that I run here and there which cleans up my macbook, updates packages and does other misc tasks.

Overview

Here is the highlights of what the script does

• brew update
  • update homebrew packages
• brew upgrade
  • upgrade homebrew packages
• rustup upgrade
  • updates rust to the latest version

and so on...

Options

You can run the shell script with the following options:

• --help (-h): shows this help page
• --disable: disable certain commands from running
• • b: disable brew update
• • d: disable DNS cache flush
• • g: disable gem cleanup
• • n: disable pnpm update
• • p: disable pip update
• • r: disable rust upgrade

example: ./janitor.sh --disable=dnrg

How to set up

• Clone the repo:

  • git clone https://github.com/anddddrew/janitor

• Create an alias in your .zshrc or .bashrc:

  • alias='/pathofrepogoeshere/janitor.sh'

Note: You may have to run chmod +x janitor.sh if you get permission denied: ./janitor.sh!
