Clearing Chrome's cache, cookies, etc via command line? (OSX)

Question

Is it possible to clear chrome's browser cache, & cookies, etc via the command line? I'm on Mac OSX 10.9 I've written a script that switches from development and production environments & it would be really nice to add this to it.

Accepted Answer

In OS X, your Chrome cache is located at:

```
/Users/[username]/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/Default/
```

To delete the cache you could type:

```
rm -rf /Users/[username]/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/Default/Cache/
```

There is also a media cache in there that you can nuke:

```
rm -rf /Users/[username]/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/Default/Media\ Cache/
```

Other Chrome data is located at:

```
/Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/
```
