Advanced tools
Depcheck is a tool for analyzing the dependencies in a project to see: how each dependency is used, which dependencies are useless, and which dependencies are missing from `package.json`. It is a port of original [depcheck](https://github.com/depcheck/dep

Install with npm:
npm install --save-dev @depcheck-rs-node/core
Install with yarn:
yarn add --dev @depcheck-rs-node/core
Or use rust to install depcheck-rs cli:

Depcheck not only recognizes the dependencies in JavaScript files, but also supports these syntaxes:
USAGE:
depcheck-rs [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-d, --directory <DIRECTORY>
The directory argument is the root directory of your project [default: .]
-h, --help
Print help information
--ignore-bin-package
A flag to indicate if depcheck ignores the packages containing bin entry
--ignore-path <IGNORE_PATH>
Path to a file with patterns describing files to ignore
--ignore-patterns <IGNORE_PATTERNS>
Comma separated patterns describing files or directories to ignore
--ignore_matches <IGNORE_MATCHES>
A comma separated array containing package names to ignore
-q, --quiet
Less output per occurrence
--skip-missing
A flag to indicate if depcheck skips calculation of missing dependencies
-v, --verbose
More output per occurrence
-V, --version
Print version information
import {depcheck} from "@depcheck-rs-node/core";
const options = {
ignoreBinPackage: false, // ignore the packages with bin entry
skipMissing: false, // skip calculation of missing dependencies
ignorePatterns: [
// files matching these patterns will be ignored
'sandbox',
'dist',
'bower_components',
],
ignoreMatches: [
// ignore dependencies that matches these globs
'grunt-*',
],
ignorePath: '/path/to/your/.depcheckignore',
};
depcheck('/path/to/your/project', options).then((result) => {
console.log(result.unusedDependencies); // an array containing the unused dependencies
console.log(result.unusedDevDependencies); // an array containing the unused devDependencies
console.log(result.missingDependencies); // a lookup containing the dependencies missing in `package.json` and where they are used
console.log(result.usingDependencies); // a lookup indicating each dependency is used by which files
});
