wheels analyze code

Analyzes code quality in your CFWheels application, checking for best practices, potential issues, and code standards compliance.

Usage

wheels analyze code [path] [--type=<type>] [--format=<format>] [--output=<file>]

Parameters

• path - (Optional) Specific file or directory to analyze. Defaults to entire application.

• --type - (Optional) Type of analysis: all, complexity, standards, duplication. Default: all

• --format - (Optional) Output format: console, json, html. Default: console

• --output - (Optional) File path to save analysis results

Description

The analyze code command performs comprehensive code quality analysis on your CFWheels application. It checks for:

• Code complexity and maintainability

• Adherence to CFWheels coding standards

• Potential bugs and code smells

• Duplicate code detection

• Function length and complexity metrics

• Variable naming conventions

• Deprecated function usage

Examples

Basic code analysis

wheels analyze code

Analyze specific directory

wheels analyze code app/controllers

Check only for code duplication

wheels analyze code --type=duplication

Generate HTML report

wheels analyze code --format=html --output=reports/code-analysis.html

Analyze complexity for models

wheels analyze code app/models --type=complexity

Output

The command provides detailed feedback including:

• Complexity Score: Cyclomatic complexity for functions

• Code Standards: Violations of CFWheels conventions

• Duplicate Code: Similar code blocks that could be refactored

• Suggestions: Recommendations for improvement

• Metrics Summary: Overall code health indicators

Notes

• Large codebases may take several minutes to analyze

• The complexity threshold can be configured in settings

• HTML reports include interactive charts and detailed breakdowns

• Integration with CI/CD pipelines is supported via JSON output
