Codebase import analyzer

Why

I wanted to structure a tool to analyze different codebases I'm currently working on. :)

We've all been there: Tou are working in a biiig react codebase. You also have a folder for multiple 'Button' components, under src/some-folder/components/buttons.tsx. One day, your team starts creating a new set of Buttons under src/design-system/buttons/index.tsx, your old buttons folder starts to slowly fade away into oblivion, and into the dreaded "legacy-code" folders.

So, I wanted to create a way to analyze your codebase to figure out:

• where are specific modules are still being imported.
• what things every file is importing.

The long-term idea for this:

• To track this information repeatedly (run on CI for every prod build?)
• Create data visualizations based on that data.
• Figure out usage of modules:
  • Folders still in use
  • Usage of legacy modules
  • Track advances towards module deprecation/migrations

How

We are using "@babel/core" that runs with the current project babel configuration to extract the AST for every file, and do some analisys in them.
