Removes unused imports.
Project description
Introduction
autoflake removes unused imports from Python code. It makes use of pyflakes to do this.
By default, autoflake only removes unused imports for modules that are part of the standard library. (Other modules may have side effects that make them unsafe to remove automatically.)
autoflake also removes useless pass statements.
Example
Running autoflake on the below example:
$ autoflake --in-place example.py
import math
import re
import os
import random
import multiprocessing
import grp, pwd, platform
import subprocess, sys
def foo():
if True:
from abc import ABCMeta, WeakSet
else:
print(sys.version)
return math.piresults in
import math
import sys
def foo():
if True:
pass
else:
print(sys.version)
return math.piAdvanced usage
To prevent autoflake from removing certain lines, add NOQA as an inline comment.
import math # NOQATo allow autoflake to remove additional unused imports (other than than those from the standard library), use the --imports option. It accepts a comma-separated list of names:
$ autoflake --imports=django,requests,urllib3 <filename>
To remove all unused imports (whether or not they are from the standard library), use the --remove-all option.
