How to count lines of code?

I tried rake stats but that seem开发者_运维技巧s highly inaccurate. Perhaps it ignores several directories?

---

I use the free Perl script cloc. Sample usage:

phrogz$ cloc .
     180 text files.
     180 unique files.                                          
      77 files ignored.

Here's a simple solution. It counts the lines of code in your rails project's app folder - CSS, Ruby, CoffeeScript, and all. At the root of your project, run this command:

find ./app -type f | xargs cat | wc -l

EDIT

Read the comments. Then try this instead:

find ./app -type f -name "*.rb" | xargs cat | sed "/^\s*\(#\|$\)/d" | wc -l

You can try out these two options:

1. Hack rake stats

Rakestats snippet from blogpost:

namespace :spec do
  desc "Add files that DHH doesn't consider to be 'code' to stats"
  task :statsetup do
  require 'code_statistics'

  class CodeStatistics
    alias calculate_statistics_orig calculate_statistics
    def calculate_statistics
      @pairs.inject({}) do |stats, pair|
        if 3 == pair.size
          stats[pair.first] = calculate_directory_statistics(pair[1], pair[2]); stats
        else
          stats[pair.first] = calculate_directory_statistics(pair.last); stats
        end
      end
    end
  end
  ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Views',  'app/views', /\.(rhtml|erb|rb)$/]
  ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Test Fixtures',  'test/fixtures', /\.yml$/]
  ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Email Fixtures',  'test/fixtures', /\.txt$/]
  # note, I renamed all my rails-generated email fixtures to add .txt
  ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Static HTML', 'public', /\.html$/]
  ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Static CSS',  'public', /\.css$/]
  # ::STATS_DIRECTORIES << ['Static JS',  'public', /\.js$/]
  # prototype is ~5384 LOC all by itself - very hard to filter out

  ::CodeStatistics::TEST_TYPES << "Test Fixtures"
  ::CodeStatistics::TEST_TYPES << "Email Fixtures"
  end
end
task :stats => "spec:statsetup"

2. metric_fu - A Ruby Gem for Easy Metric Report Generation

PS: I haven't tried any of the above, but metric_fu sounds interesting, see the screenshots of the output.

This one calculates number of files, total lines of code, comments, and average LOC per file. It also excludes files inside directories with "vendor" in their name.

Usage:

count_lines('rb')

Code:

def count_lines(ext)

  o = 0 # Number of files
  n = 0 # Number of lines of code
  m = 0 # Number of lines of comments

  files = Dir.glob('./**/*.' + ext)

  files.each do |f|
    next if f.index('vendor')
    next if FileTest.directory?(f)
    o += 1
    i = 0
    File.new(f).each_line do |line|
      if line.strip[0] == '#'
        m += 1
        next
      end
      i += 1
    end
    n += i
  end

  puts "#{o.to_s} files."
  puts "#{n.to_s} lines of code."
  puts "#{(n.to_f/o.to_f).round(2)} LOC/file."
  puts "#{m.to_s} lines of comments."

end

If your code is hosted on GitHub, you can use this line count website. Just enter your GitHub URL and wait for the result.

Example for Postgres: https://line-count.herokuapp.com/postgres/postgres
