Run script before/after image upload?

FAQ
1

I was able to use the extra_script parameter to be able to run a script before building but is there a way to run a script before and after uploading firmware? There are some files that I want removed before building the SPIFFS image but I want to add them back after it has successfully uploaded.

See example Redirecting...

platformio.ini

[env:pre_and_post_hooks]
extra_script = extra_script.py

extra_script.py

Import("env")

def before_upload(source, target, env):
    print "before_upload"
    # do some actions


def after_upload(source, target, env):
    print "after_upload"
    # do some actions

env.AddPreAction("upload", before_upload)
env.AddPostAction("upload", after_upload)
