pkgdmp

pkgdmp - Go code analysis tool

pkgdmp is a simple command-line tool for analyzing directories containing Go code. It provides an overview of functions, structs, methods, function types, and interfaces defined in the packages within those directories.

Note Please be aware that this project is a work in progress, and it may contain bugs or unexpected behavior. Additionally, both the CLI and the package API can get breaking changes while the version is below 1.0.0

Features:

• Customizable output options
• Entity filtering using patterns
• Multiple syntax highlighting themes
• JSON output generation

Todo:

• Implement parsing and printing of const.
• Implement parsing and printing of var.

Examples

Analyze the contents of the myproject directory and display all exported entities:

user@example:~$ pkgdmp myproject
package mypackage

// An ugly const declaration group to check that parser handles different
// scenarios correctly.
const (
        MyStringConst, MyUint32Const, MyIntConst         = "hello", uint32(123), 42
        MyFloatConst                                     = 1.234
        MyFloat32Const                           float32 = 4.321
)

const MyInitConst int

// MySingleConst checks that parser handles a single const declaration
// correctly.
const MySingleConst = "example"

// Check that parser handles this common const declaration method correctly.
const (
        MyFatal MyLogLevel = iota
        MyError
        MyWarn
        MyInfo
        MyDebug
)
. . .

Analyze the myproject directory, excluding entities matching pattern and displaying full documentation comments in JSON format:

user@example:~$ pkgdmp -exclude-matching "^My.*Function$" -full-docs -json myproject
[
  {
    "name": "mypackage",
    "consts": [
      {
        "doc": "An ugly const declaration group to check that parser handles different\nscenarios correctly.",
        "consts": [
          {
            "names": [
              "MyStringConst",
              "MyUint32Const",
              "MyIntConst"
            ],
            "values": [
              {
                "value": "\"hello\"",
                "type": "string"
              },
              {
                "value": "123",
                "type": "uint32",
                "specific": true
              },
              {
                "value": "42",
                "type": "int"
              }
            ]
          },
          {
            "names": [
              "MyFloatConst"
. . .
