All Code Aggregator

Overview

The All Code Aggregator script consolidates all programming-related code files in the current directory into a single full_code.txt file. This is especially useful for providing your entire codebase to AI models for analysis or assistance.

Features

• Directory Tree Generation: Creates an ASCII representation of the directory structure, excluding specified directories.
• Code Aggregation: Combines contents of programming-related files into a master file.
• Customizable Inclusions/Exclusions: Easily specify which files or directories to include or exclude.

Setup

1. Clone the Repository

Usage

Basic usage

python all_code.py

Specify a Directory

python all_code.py -d /path/to/start/directory

Copy Aggregated Content to Clipboard Instead of Writing to File

python all_code.py -c

Combine Both Arguments: Specify Directory and Copy to Clipboard

python all_code.py -d /path/to/start/directory -c

Exclude Specific File Extensions

python all_code.py -X .json,.md,.html

Combine Multiple Options: Specify Directory, Copy to Clipboard, and Exclude Extensions

python all_code.py -d /path/to/start/directory -c -X .json,.md,.html

More options

python all_code.py --help
usage: all_code.py [-h] [-c] [-d DIRECTORY] [-o OUTPUT_FILE] [-i INCLUDE_FILES] [-x EXTENSIONS] [-e EXCLUDE_DIRS]

Aggregate code files into a master file with a directory tree.

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c, --clipboard       Copy the aggregated content to the clipboard instead of writing to a file.
  -d, --directory DIRECTORY
                        Specify the directory to start aggregation from. Defaults to the current working directory.
  -o, --output-file OUTPUT_FILE
                        Name of the output file. Defaults to full_code.txt.
  -i, --include-files INCLUDE_FILES
                        Comma-separated list of files to include. If not provided, all files are included.
  -x, --extensions EXTENSIONS
                        Comma-separated list of programming extensions to use. Replaces the default set if provided.
  -e, --exclude-dirs EXCLUDE_DIRS
                        Comma-separated list of directories to exclude. Replaces the default set if provided.
  -X, --exclude-extensions EXCLUDE_EXTENSIONS
                        Comma-separated list of file extensions to exclude from aggregation.

Exclusions

The All Code Aggregator script automatically excludes specific directories and files to streamline the aggregation process and avoid including unnecessary or sensitive information.

Excluded Directories

The following directories are excluded by default:

• venvz
• node_modules
• __pycache__
• .git
• dist
• build
• temp
• old_files
• flask_session

Excluded Extensions

Users can now exclude specific file extensions using the -X or --exclude-extensions argument.

Example:

python all_code.py -X .json,.md,.html

This will exclude all .json, .md, and .html files from aggregation.

Purpose: These directories are typically used for virtual environments, dependencies, build artifacts, version control, or temporary files that are not part of the core codebase.

Example Output to full_code.txt

    return f"Hello, {name}!"

// Function to add two numbers
function add(a, b) {
    return a + b;
}

// Function to subtract two numbers
function subtract(a, b) {
    return a - b;
}

// Function to multiply two numbers
function multiply(a, b) {
    return a * b;
}

// Function to divide two numbers
function divide(a, b) {
    if (b === 0) {
        throw new Error("Division by zero is not allowed.");
    }
    return a / b;
}

// Example usage
console.log("Add: " + add(5, 3));         // Output: Add: 8
console.log("Subtract: " + subtract(5, 3)); // Output: Subtract: 2
console.log("Multiply: " + multiply(5, 3)); // Output: Multiply: 15
console.log("Divide: " + divide(5, 3));     // Output: Divide: 1.6666666666666667

Testing the script

If you want to test the script, run the following command.

python test_all_code.py

As of the current commit, only the command line args and their effects were tested, but more tests can be added in the future.
