NAME
countperl - count lines, packages, subs, and complexity of Perl files.
USAGE
countperl FILE_OR_DIRECTORY [FILE_OR_DIRECTORY ...] [--html] [--help] [--method-modifiers=a,b,c]
REQUIRED ARGUMENTS
At least one file or directory path must be supplied.
OPTIONS
- --help
-
Prints documentation to STDERR.
- --html
-
Produces HTML output instead of the plain-text default.
- --json
-
Produces JSON output instead of the plain-text default.
- --method-modifiers=a,b,c
-
A comma-separated list of method modifiers to be recognised, see Moose::Manual::MethodModifiers for details. If unspecified, the default list is before,after,around.
CONFIGURATION
N/A. Currently no support for any configuration files.
EXIT STATUS
Exits zero on success, non-zero on failure.
DESCRIPTION
countperl uses Perl::Metrics::Simple to examines the named files and recursivesly searches named directories for Perl files.
Perl files are identified by Perl::Metrics::Simple->is_perl_file. Basically if the file ends in .pl
, .pm
, or .t
or has what appears to be a perl shebang line.
countperl produces a report on STDOUT of counts of total lines, packages, subroutines/methods, the minimum, maximum, mean, standard deviation, and median size and mccabe_complexity (cyclomatic complexity) of subroutines and the 'main' portion of each file (everything not in a subroutine.)
Output Format
Line counts do not include comments nor pod.
The current output format is human-readable text:
Perl files found: 3
Counts
------
total code lines: 856
lines of non-sub code: 450
packages found: 3
subs/methods: 42
Subroutine/Method Size
----------------------
min: 3 lines
max: 32 lines
mean: 9.67 lines
std. deviation: 7.03
median: 7.50
McCabe Complexity
-----------------
Code not in any subroutine::
min: 1
max 1
mean: 1.00
std. deviation: 0.00
median: 1.00
Subroutines/Methods:
min: 1
max: 5
avg: 1.00
std. deviation: 1.36
median: 1.00
Tab-delimited list of subroutines, with most complex at top
-----------------------------------------------------------
