Remove a specific cached runtime version — cache_remove • shinyelectron

Removes a single cached runtime version instead of clearing the entire cache. Use cache_info() to see what's available.

Usage

cache_remove(runtime, version, platform = NULL, arch = NULL)

Arguments

runtime: Character string. One of "r", "python", or "nodejs".
version: Character string. Version to remove (e.g., "4.5.3", "3.12.10", "v22.11.0").
platform: Character string. Platform (e.g., "win", "mac", "linux"). For Node.js, use the combined platform-arch format shown by cache_info().
arch: Character string. Architecture ("x64" or "arm64"). Ignored for Node.js (embedded in platform).

Value

Invisibly returns TRUE if removed, FALSE if not found.
