  <code>ig</code> is a tool to interactively visualize include graphs for C++ projects

## Overview

Point `ig` at any directory containing C++ source or header files and it will
construct a full graph of all includes, serve you a local website and visualize
the graph interactively with [sigma.js](http://sigmajs.org), for you to admire.

Usage is very easy:

```sh
$ ig -o include
```

will inspect the folder `include`, serve a website on `localhost:8080` and even
open your browser for you. The full set of options currently include:

```sh
usage: graph.py [-h] [-p PATTERNS] [-i PREFIXES] [-v] [--port PORT] [-o] [-j]
                [--relation {includes,included-by}]
                [--group-granularity GROUP_GRANULARITY] [--full-path]
                [--colors COLORS] [--color-variation COLOR_VARIATION]
                [--color-alpha-min COLOR_ALPHA_MIN]
                directories [directories ...]

Visualize C++ include graphs

positional arguments:
  directories           The directories to look at

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -p PATTERNS, --pattern PATTERNS
                        The file (glob) patterns to look for
  -i PREFIXES, -I PREFIXES, --prefix PREFIXES
                        An include path for headers to recognize
  -v, --verbose         Whether to turn on verbose output
  --port PORT           The port to serve the visualization on
  -o, --open            Whether to open the webpage immediately
  -j, --json            Whether to print the graph JSON and not serve it
  --relation {includes,included-by}
                        The relation of edges in the graph
  --group-granularity GROUP_GRANULARITY
                        How coarse to group nodes (by folder)
  --full-path           If set, shows the full path for nodes
  --colors COLORS       The base RGB colors separated by commas
  --color-variation COLOR_VARIATION
                        The variation in RGB around the base colors
  --color-alpha-min COLOR_ALPHA_MIN
                        The minimum alpha value for colors
```

But does it scale? It scales quite well. The graph you see above is the include
graph for the entire LLVM and clang codebase, which spans more than 5,000 files
and 1.5M LOC. Note that the visualization also includes sliders to group nodes
by folder and filter out low-degree nodes.

## Installation

Get it with pip:

```sh
$ pip install ig-cpp
```

Works with Python 2 and 3.

## Examples

Who ever said C++ was an ugly language?
