hugodep

hugodep is for analyzing the dependencies in a project to see: how each dependency is used, and which dependencies are useless. The same goals as depcheck, but this code works 100% guaranteed without false alarms, with a 2% of their lines of code.

Any syntax, any language

Without need of plugins, this tool supports every language and every syntax you can define in the scripts section of the package.json file.

Usage

Pass all the package.json scripts that test and build your code. The package.json scripts should have a finish, i.e. modify scripts that are not builders or stay in watch-mode.

For example and tutorial, with create-react-app we have 4 scripts: start, build, test and eject. Modify the test script to have an execution exit:

"scripts": {
    "test": "react-scripts test --watchAll=false",
    ...
}

Then calling npx, analyze the dependencies for the build, test and eject scripts, omitting start script because is an always-on server:

npx hugodep --run build --run test --run eject

This tool requires node.js. If you want faster results use an SSD.

Set --use-yarn argument for using the faster yarn. Omitting that argument uses npm.
