This started as an extraction of the Rails rake stat task, so it could be used on non-Rails projects and have it's features slowly expanded.

Improvements include:

• Support for RSpec and Cucumber out of the box.
• Includes .rake files.
• Includes scripts (by default, in bin/, script/, and scripts/) with no extension, provided they have a shebang line.

This project requires Ruby 1.9.x or higher.

Add this to the bottom of your Rakefile:

require 'code_counter'

Then, when you run rake -T you'll see a stats task, unless you already had one defined. If you have an existing task named stats, and want to use this one, simply make a task of a new name that depends on the code_counter task, like so:

task :new_stats => :code_counter

To configure the task:

task :stats_configuration do
  CodeCounter::Engine.clear!
  CodeCounter::Engine.init!

  # By default, this will recursively add the specified path, and only look for
  # files ending in `.rb`, `.rake`, or `.feature`.
  CodeCounter::Engine.add_path("Some Group", "some/path")

  # Don't add recursively:
  CodeCounter::Engine.add_path("Some Group", "other/path", false)

  # Add recursively, and don't filter by file extension:
  CodeCounter::Engine.add_path("Some Group", "my/script/dir", true, true)
end

# Add a dependency on our config task here so that our config gets loaded when
# we run `rake stats`.
task :code_counter => :stats_configuration

code_counter

Additionally, you can configure things using some environment variables:

• ADDITIONAL_SOURCE_DIRECTORIES: A comma-separated list of directories to scan for source files. You may assign a directory to a named group by prefixing the path with a group name and colon. E.G. ADDITIONAL_SOURCE_DIRECTORIES='Libraries:my_awesome_code'
• ADDITIONAL_SCRIPT_DIRECTORIES: A comma-separated list of directories to scan for scripts. You may assign a directory to a named group by prefixing the path with a group name and colon. E.G. ADDITIONAL_SCRIPT_DIRECTORIES='Scripts:my_awesome_scripts'
• IGNORE_FILE_GLOBS: A comma-separated list of file globs to ignore.

• make bin accept passed cmd line arguments to run
• stop relying on ENV vars
• count number of total files
• count number of of .rb or passed in filter files
• find todo, perf, bug, hack, etc comments and display them with info about them (line number etc)
• reduce duplication between bin and task
• comments:code ratio
• support for more languages
  • JS
  • CoffeeScript
  • Gherkin
• don't accidentally count actual binaries
• Include Rakefile* in analysis

• Fork the project.
• Make your feature addition or bug fix.
• Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
• Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
