    Cleaning up node_modules

Working with node.js is great. NPM may not be the best package manager on the planet, but it is good enough.
However, if you have a number of projects on the disk then the copies of modules keep piling up...
This command does the cleaning. It's interactive!

  
## prune-node_modules.sh
#!/bin/bash

printf "Calculating..."
folders=$(find . -name 'node_modules' -type d -prune)
printf "Done.\n\n"

echo "The following folders will be deleted:"
echo "$folders"

printf "\n\n"
read -p "Are you sure you wish to continue? (type 'yes' and press enter) >"
if [ "$REPLY" != "yes" ]; then
  echo "Aborted."
  exit
fi

find . -name 'node_modules' -type d -prune -exec rm -rf '{}' +
echo "Done."
	#!/bin/bash

	printf "Calculating..."
	folders=$(find . -name 'node_modules' -type d -prune)
	printf "Done.\n\n"

	echo "The following folders will be deleted:"
	echo "$folders"

	printf "\n\n"
	read -p "Are you sure you wish to continue? (type 'yes' and press enter) >"
	if [ "$REPLY" != "yes" ]; then
	echo "Aborted."
	exit
	fi

	find . -name 'node_modules' -type d -prune -exec rm -rf '{}' +
	echo "Done."
