dep-analyzer

A command-line tool for analyzing TypeScript/JavaScript import dependencies. Built to help identify external package usage, cross-feature imports, and legacy code that needs cleanup before removal.

Features

  • Analyzes package, cross-feature, and local imports
  • Multiple output formats: summary, table, and JSON
  • Reverse dependency lookup with --find-usage for legacy code removal
  • Glob pattern matching for import paths
  • Automatic paging for large output
  • Configurable alias symbols

Usage

# Analyze current directory
dep-analyzer

# Table format with only external deps
dep-analyzer -f table --external-only

# Find what depends on legacy code before removing it
dep-analyzer --find-usage "~Meetings/components/details/*"

# JSON output for scripting
dep-analyzer -f json -o dependencies.json
