Find your code dependencies, supports typescript, javascript and coffe script
A simple and naive approach to trace your code dependecies. It's very fast and uses only a single regex execution per file.
Enable taking fast decisions based on files dependecy trees.
While the correct way to trace dependecies is by using some sort of AST analyzer this will require more computions then using a single regex execution per file.
files-trace was built for performance over accuracy and it's doing best effort to find all dependencies of your file.
If you find scenarios that files-trace couldn't find your dependencies - open an issue in the github repo and I will do my best effort to fix it.
The following use cases may be addressed with files-trace:
- Enfore project specific policies, such as files from folder X cannot require files from folder Y
- Check if file was changed including it's dependencies.
- Any other use cases when you need to scan the files dependency tree fast and where accuracy is second citizen.
It's still at the very first stages, help is welcomed.
