Frieza is a CLI tool to clean up cloud resources across multiple providers.

It can either wipe all resources in an account or compare a known “clean state” snapshot and delete only what was created since.

• Full Cleanup: Delete all cloud resources from a specific account or region.

  frieza nuke regionEu2

• Snapshot-based Cleanup:

  1. Keep your essential resources

  2. Create a snapshot

     frieza snap new cleanAccountState regionEu2

  3. Run temporary experiments that create resources

  4. Clean everything not present in the original snapshot

     frieza clean cleanAccountState

• Multi-provider support (see list)
• Clean resources based on current state or snapshot delta
• Store multiple profiles and configurations
• Track and review deleted resources before execution
• Optional --auto-approve for automated cleanup

• Golang (to build from source)
• Make
• A valid cloud account (e.g., Outscale API credentials)

brew tap outscale/tap brew install frieza

Download the latest release from the Releases page.

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/outscale/frieza.git cd frieza make install

Run the CLI to discover subcommands:

frieza --help

Use --help with subcommands for detailed usage.

Configure access to your cloud providers:

frieza profile new outscale_oapi --help frieza profile new outscale_oapi myDevAccount --region=eu-west-2 --ak=XXX --sk=YYY frieza profile test myDevAccount frieza profile list frieza profile describe myDevAccount frieza profile rm myDevAccount

Profiles are stored in: ~/.frieza/config.json

Create and manage snapshots of cloud state:

frieza snapshot new myFirstSnap myDevAccount myOtherAccount frieza snapshot list frieza snapshot describe myFirstSnap frieza snapshot update myFirstSnap frieza snapshot rm myFirstSnap

Snapshots are stored in: ~/.frieza/snapshots/

Delete resources created since a snapshot:

frieza clean myFirstSnap

Delete all resources for a profile:

frieza nuke myDevAccount

You will see a preview of the deletions before execution. Use --auto-approve to skip confirmation prompts.

Use the frieza config subcommands to view and modify CLI options.
