How to use Tokei

Basic usage

This is the basic way to use tokei. Which will report on the code in ./foo and all subfolders.

$ tokei ./foo

Multiple folders

To have tokei report on multiple folders in the same call simply add a comma followed by another path.

$ tokei ./foo, ./bar, ./baz

Excluding folders

The --exclude option will allow to pass in a sequence of string to exclude any path including those words

$ tokei ./foo --exclude node_modules, target

Sorting output

By default tokei sorts alphabetically by language name, however using --sort tokei can also sort by any of the columns. blanks, code, comments, lines

$ tokei ./foo --sort code

Outputing file statistics

By default tokei only outputs the total of the languages, and using --files flag tokei can also output individual file statistics.

$ tokei ./foo --files

Outputting into different formats

Tokei normally outputs into a nice human readable format designed for the terminal. There is also using the --output option various other formats that are more useful for bringing the data into another program.

Current supported formats

• JSON --output json
• YAML --output yaml
• TOML --output toml
• CBOR --output cbor

$ tokei ./foo --output json

Reading in stored formats

Tokei can also take in the outputted formats added the previous results to it's current run. Tokei can take either a path to a file, the format passed in as a value to the option, or from stdin.

$ tokei ./foo --input ./stats.json

Common issues

Tokei says I have a lot of D code, but I know there is no D code!

This is likely due to gcc generating .d files. Until the D people decide on a different file extension, you can always exclude .d files using the -e --exclude flag like so

$ tokei . -e .d
