pyrosm.OSM.clear_cache

static OSM.clear_cache(filepath=None)

Remove the out-of-core engine’s result cache – the GeoParquet files that engine="out_of_core" reads write under <tempdir>/pyrosm/cache.

Parameters:

filepath (str | os.PathLike (optional)) – A source PBF’s path. A bare file name names both the file of that name in the working directory and the one get_data downloaded. When given, only the cached layers for that source PBF are removed; when None (default) the whole cache is cleared.

Returns:

The number of cache files removed.

Return type:

int
