How to create a self-deleting temporary directory in Python
Starting from Python 3.2 your can use tmpfile.TemporaryDirectory like this:
from tempfile import TemporaryDirectory
with TemporaryDirectory(prefix="myapp-") as tmpdir:
print(tmpdir) # e.g. "/tmp/myapp-fevhzh93"
# Once you are outside the "with" block, the directory will be deleted!
