如何删除所有的node_modules文件夹内容

I had to transfer a folder full of old projects to a new computer, and after trying to compress it, I realized the size was 8GB. A bit too much for some coding projects that only contain text files.

我不得不将一个充满旧项目的文件夹转移到新计算机上，并尝试对其进行压缩后，我意识到它的大小为8GB。 对于仅包含文本文件的某些编码项目来说，有点太多了。

They were all JavaScript projects, and every project contained a node_modules folder.

它们都是JavaScript项目，每个项目都包含一个node_modules文件夹。

The folder is totally unnecessary because I can always run npm install in a project to re-generate it, and most of those projects I had in that folder were old things I’ll never use ever again.

该文件夹是完全不必要的，因为我总是可以在一个项目中运行npm install来重新生成它，并且我在该文件夹中拥有的大多数项目都是旧的东西，我将不再使用。

So I decided to remove all the node_modules folders, but they were too many. So I went into the parent folder, which I called dev, and I ran this command in the ZSH terminal, the shell that comes by default with macOS Catalina:

因此，我决定删除所有的node_modules文件夹，但是它们太多了。 因此，我进入了名为dev的父文件夹，并在ZSH终端(macOS Catalina默认提供的shell)中运行了此命令：

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

This reduced the size of my folder from 8GB to 2GB. Pretty nice for a one-line command.

这将我的文件夹大小从8GB减小到2GB。 单行命令非常好。

I found this command on this blog, there you can find more explanation on the command details.
