Question: Can I access the classes/methods/functions in modules? about dependency-cruiser HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi Sander,

Thank you for the thoughtful response. I definitely support your taking time off, we do too little of that in this always on world.

Thanks for the pointer to webstorm, looks very interesting. And I completely understand that this is out of scope for dependency-cruiser. I will still use it for its intended purpose 😌.

Stale without reaction from maintainers is not very nice to be honest.

Hi @Midnighter sorry about that! Stalebot doesn't know when I'm taking time off to focus on my private well being - like having a holiday or taking care of family members. Maybe one day I'll teach it that.

As to your question: dependency-cruiser focuses on inter-module dependencies as the one thing to do well. Diving into details inside modules is possible (and interesting!), but will also take a lot of time to set up and maintain. If this would have been my full time, reliably paid job I might have dug into it (and created a separate program for it).

As an alternative: the makers of webstorm do build things like this for a living, though, and it might be their offering does what you need: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/module-dependency-diagram.html
