It provides the following extensions:Conditionally limit removal to development packages.Conditionally limit removal to versions matching a given regular expression.Temporarily switch non-volatile indices to volatile.Apply a remove operation to all indices of a user.Throttle removal activities if the Devpi server is having difficulties keeping up.Léon by ExampleThe following command will delete all development packages preceding version 0.2 ofdelete_meon indexindex1of
the user:> devpi-cleaner http://localhost:2414/ user/index1 'delete_me<=0.2' --dev-only

A utility to batch-remove packages from a Devpi server.

positional arguments:
  server                The devpi server to operate on.
  user[/index]          The index from which to remove the packages. If only
                        the user part is specified, all indices of that user

                        Remove only versions in which the given regular
                        expression can be found.
  --force               Temporarily make indices volatile to enable package
