A tool for parsing directories scanning all the files within to find duplicate segments of code across files.
Duplicate Code scans the current directory and all sub-directories to find every file, then each file is compared against all the other files to find duplicate segments across the files.
| Flag | |
|---------------------|-|
| --ignore-line-regex | Ignore every line that matches any of these provided regexes. For example, to ignore the imports and package declarations in Java code --ignore-line-regex '^import ' '^package '. |
| --ignore-file-regex | Ignore every file that matches any of these provided regexes. For example, to all XML and CSV files --ignore-file-regex '[.]xml$' '[.]csv$'. |
The crates pretty_env_logger and log are used to provide logging.
The environment variable RUST_LOG can be used to set the logging level.
See https://crates.io/crates/prettyenvlogger for more detailed documentation.
Checkout the code repository locally, change into the repository's directory and then build via cargo.
Using the --release flag produces an optimised binary but takes longer to compile.
git clone git@gitlab.com:DeveloperC/duplicate_code.git
cd duplicate_code/
cargo build --release
The compiled binary is present in target/release/duplicate_code.
Cargo is the Rust package manager, using the install sub-command it pulls the crate from crates.io and then compiles the binary locally.
cargo install places the produced binary at $HOME/.cargo/bin/duplicate_code.
cargo install duplicate_code
