# Delete File CLI
A simple CLI to delete a file based on fuzzy search. This tool allows you to search and delete files either asynchronously or synchronously from a specified directory.
## Features
- Asynchronous search and delete for faster operations (with timeout consideration).
- Synchronous search and delete for more stable operations on large directories.
- Fuzzy search using file names.
## Installation
To install the CLI globally, use the following command:
```sh
npm install -g delete-file-cli
Usage
Basic Commands
Async Search and Delete
To search and delete a file asynchronously:
delete-file-cli -a
Sync Search and Delete
To search and delete a file synchronously:
delete-file-cli -s
Examples
Async Search and Delete
delete-file-cli -a
You will be prompted to enter the directory and file name to search. The tool will perform an asynchronous search and present you with a list of matching files to choose from for deletion.
Sync Search and Delete
delete-file-cli -s
Similar to the async command, you will be prompted for the directory and file name. The tool will perform a synchronous search and present matching files for deletion.
