Dep

Analyze a project by building up a dependency graph between JS / TS files and exporting a Graphviz Dot file

Usage

Run dep on a project directory. By default this writes out.dot:

cargo run -- path/to/project

Render the graph using Graphviz's sfdp for a layout suitable for large graphs:

sfdp -Goverlap=prism -Tsvg out.dot -o out.svg

Open out.svg in your browser to explore the dependency graph.

Configuration

You can configure dep using a dep.toml file in the target directory. CLI arguments take precedence over config file settings.

Example dep.toml:

# Output settings
output = "graph.json"
format = "json"

# Feature toggles
include_external = false
include_builtins = true
include_folders = true
include_assets = false
include_packages = true

# Ignore specific nodes or paths
ignore_nodes = ["node_modules", "dist"]
ignore_paths = ["**/generated/**"]

# Other settings
workers = 4
verbose = true
prune = true
