eLOCuent

Node.js script to analyze lines of code in a (smallish) codebase and generate a CSV with stats about each line. It works by running git blame, then parsing the output.

The metadata stored in the CSV is:

• file: the file the line is from
• line: the line number
• type: The type of code ("html", "css", "js", "svelte"). CSS and JS defined in Svelte files is recognized as HTML and CSS, so "svelte" is only used for the HTML in Svelte files.
• commit: The identifier (SHA hash) of the commit that last changed this line
• date, time, timezone: The date, time, and timezone respectively that the commit was made
• datetime: The full date and time (including timezone) in ISO 8601 format
• author: The full name of the author of the last commit that changed this line. For your own website this will likely be your own name on every line.
• depth: the indentation level of the line
• length: the number of characters in the line after trimming (i.e. excluding whitespace at the start and end).
