📦 Installation

pip install docuai

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or higher
• OpenAI API key

⚙️ Configuration

DocuAI requires an OpenAI API key. Set it using one of these methods:

Option 1: Environment Variable (Recommended)

export OPENAI_API_KEY='your-api-key-here'

Add to your shell profile for persistence:

echo "export OPENAI_API_KEY='your-key'" >> ~/.bashrc  # or ~/.zshrc

Option 2: .env File

Create a .env file in your project directory:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here

Option 3: Per-Command

OPENAI_API_KEY='your-key' docuai generate script.py

🎯 Quick Start

Generate Documentation

# Single file (saves to filename_docs.md)
docuai generate app.py

# Entire project (saves to dirname_documentation.md)
docuai generate .

# GitHub repository
docuai generate https://github.com/username/repo --output docs.md

Analyze Code Quality

# Single file (saves to filename_analysis.md)
docuai analyze app.py

# Entire project (saves to dirname_analysis.md)
docuai analyze .

# Custom output
docuai analyze . --output analysis.md

📚 Usage Examples

Python Project

docuai generate my_project/

Output: Comprehensive documentation including:

• Project overview and architecture
• Class and function documentation
• Usage examples
• Best practices

React/TypeScript Application

docuai analyze src/

Output: Code quality report with:

• Code smells and anti-patterns
• Security vulnerabilities
• Performance issues
• Refactoring suggestions

Full-Stack Project Analysis

# Analyze entire codebase
docuai generate . --output PROJECT_DOCS.md

🛠️ Commands

generate

Generate comprehensive documentation for code files, directories, or repositories.

Syntax:

docuai generate <input_path> [--output OUTPUT]

Arguments:

• input_path - File path, directory path, or GitHub URL
• --output - Optional custom output filename

Examples:

docuai generate app.py                    # Single file
docuai generate .                         # Current directory
docuai generate /path/to/project          # Specific directory
docuai generate https://github.com/user/repo  # GitHub repo

analyze

Analyze code for quality issues, smells, and improvements.

Syntax:

docuai analyze <input_path> [--output OUTPUT]

Examples:

docuai analyze app.py                     # Single file
docuai analyze .                          # Current directory
docuai analyze https://github.com/user/repo --output report.md

🌍 Supported Languages

Language	File Extensions	Parser
Python	.py	AST
JavaScript	.js, .jsx	Esprima
TypeScript	.ts, .tsx	Esprima

📖 Documentation

Directory Traversal

DocuAI recursively processes all supported files in directories and subdirectories.

Automatically Ignored:

• .git, .venv, venv
• node_modules
• __pycache__, dist, build
• .idea, .vscode

GitHub Integration

Analyze any public GitHub repository:

docuai generate https://github.com/username/repo

How it works:

• Clones repository to temporary directory
• Processes all supported files
• Generates documentation
• Cleans up temporary files

For private repositories:

git clone https://github.com/username/private-repo
cd private-repo
docuai generate .

Output Files

All commands automatically save results to .md files:

Command	Default Output
docuai generate file.py	file_docs.md
docuai analyze file.py	file_analysis.md
docuai generate .	dirname_documentation.md
docuai analyze .	dirname_analysis.md

Use --output to specify custom filenames.

🔧 Troubleshooting

API Key Not Found

ValueError: OpenAI API key not found

Solution: Set your API key using one of the methods in Configuration

Unsupported File Type

ValueError: Unsupported file type

Solution: DocuAI only supports .py, .js, .jsx, .ts, .tsx files

No Files Found

No supported files found

Solution: Ensure your directory contains supported file types and isn't in the ignore list

💡 Tips

• Large Projects: Use --output to save results to a specific file
• API Costs: DocuAI uses GPT-5, which costs ~$0.01 per file analyzed
• Best Results: Ensure your code has clear function/class names and comments
• Performance: Processing large repositories may take a few minutes
