Introducing RefactorCode - Enhance your code with a single command 👨‍💻

Imagine that you are working on a project, your primary goal is to get a working application. But because you have a lot on your hand, you don't have time to review and clean up code to make it readable for other developers. That's where RefactorCode comes in!

  • Checks for any bugs and corrects them (out of bounds, performance issues, logical bugs).
  • Removes commented out and unreachable code.
  • Adds comments to explain existing code.
  • Splits very large functions into smaller functions for better modularity.

Usage

refactorcode ./yourfile

-o or --output- Allows to set the…

If haven't clicked away from reading that cheesy intro, let me tell you about what it does:

Features

  • It adds helpful comments to explain what a particular section of codes does.
  • Removes unreachable and commented out code (y'all have done it at some point)
  • If a code is implemented in an inefficient way, it rewrites it to make it more performant without changing its functionality.
  • Corrects common bugs like edge case issues or out of bounds.
  • Breaks down very large functions into more modular ones

Setup

There are detailed instructions in the github repo but here is a basic overview of how to set it up:

  • Clone the repo and do npm install, and npm link
  • Get an API key from Gemini, create a .env file and add the API key like this:
API_KEY=YOURAPIKEYHERE
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Finally, start improving your code, type:

refactorcode .\theFileToBeRefactored
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

It also supports multiple files at the same time!
