pygount

Pygount is a command line tool to scan folders for source code files and count the number of source code lines in it. It is similar to tools like sloccount and cloc but uses the pygments package to analyze the source code and consequently can analyze any programming language supported by pygments.

The name is a combination of pygments and count.

Pygount is open source and distributed under the BSD license. The source code is available from https://github.com/roskakori/pygount.

Quickstart

For installation run

$ pip install pygount

To get a list of line counts for a projects stored in a certain folder run for example:

$ pygount ~/projects/example

To limit the analysis to certain file types identified by their suffix:

$ pygount --suffix=cfg,py,yml ~/projects/example

To get a summary of each programming language with sum counts and percentage:

$ pygount --format=summary ~/projects/example

To analyze a remote git repository directly without having to clone it first:

$ pygount --format=summary https://github.com/roskakori/pygount.git

You can pass a specific revision at the end of the remote URL:

$ pygount --format=summary https://github.com/roskakori/pygount.git/v1.5.1

This example results in the following summary output:

Plenty of tools can post process SLOC information, for example the SLOCCount plug-in for the Jenkins continuous integration server.

A popular format for such tools is the XML format used by cloc, which pygount also supports and can store in an output file:

$ pygount --format=cloc-xml --out=cloc.xml ~/projects/example

To get a short description of all available command line options use:

$ pygount --help
