# SourceAtlas
SourceAtlas is a command-line tool written in Rust that scans a source code repository and generates useful statistics.
I started this project as a way to learn Rust by building something practical instead of only completing exercises. The goal isn't to compete with existing tools, but to build a clean, well-structured application while learning more about idiomatic Rust and software engineering.
## Features
Current features include:
- Recursive directory scanning
- Ignores common build and IDE directories:
- `target`
- `build`
- `node_modules`
- `.idea`
- `.vscode`
- Reports:
- Directories scanned
- Files scanned
- Files analyzed
- Files skipped
- Total lines
- Blank lines
- Non-blank lines
- Characters
- Functions (currently Rust only)
- TODO comments
- Gracefully skips unreadable or binary files
- Unit tested
## Installation
Install from crates.io:
```bash
cargo install sourceatlas
```
Or build from source:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/jesse-kroon/sourceatlas.git
cd sourceatlas
cargo build --release
```
## Usage
Scan the current directory:
```bash
sourceatlas scan .
```
Scan another directory:
```bash
sourceatlas scan /path/to/project
```
## Example Output
```text
----------
DIRECTORIES
--------
total directories: 55
FILES
--------
total files found: 86
total files analyzed: 43
total files skipped: 43
total lines: 1607
total characters: 40438
total non-blank lines: 1372
total blank lines: 235
total functions: 16
total TODO's: 26
```
*The above output is generated when running sourceatlas on itself*
## Roadmap
Some features I'd like to add:
- More visually appealing report generation
- Support for more languages
- Custom ignore files
- JSON output
- Markdown reports
- Better language detection
- Parallel directory scanning
- Additional repository metrics
## Why SourceAtlas?
The idea behind the name is simple: rather than just counting lines of code, SourceAtlas aims to provide an overview of a source tree—almost like a map of a repository.
