Edge Filter

Category: Filter (takes in cc.json and outputs cc.json)

Generates visualization data from a cc.json file with edges data. For every node its edge-attributes get aggregated and inserted as node-attribute. After using this command the file can also be visualized inside the visualization, because the edgefilter creates nodes if they did not exist before.

Usage and Parameters

Parameters	Description
FILE	files to filter
-h, --help	displays help and exits
-o, --output-file=<outputFile>	output File (or empty for stdout)
--path-separator=<pathSeparator>	path separator (default = ’/‘)

Usage: ccsh edgefilter [-h] [-o=<outputFile>]
                       [--path-separator=<pathSeparator>] FILE

Example

ccsh edgefilter edges.cc.json -o visual_edges.cc.json

Executing this command would turn an edges.cc.json file that e.g. looks like this:

{
  "projectName": "Sample Project with edges",
  "apiVersion": "1.1",
  "nodes": [
    {
      "name": "root",
      "type": "Folder",
      "attributes": {},
      "children": []
    }
  ],
  "edges": [
    {
      "fromNodeName": "/root/app/codeCharta.html",
      "toNodeName": "/root/app/codeCharta.scss",
      "attributes": {
        "pairingRate": 56,
        "avgCommits": 10
      }
    },
    {
      "fromNodeName": "/root/app/testVille.html",
      "toNodeName": "/root/app/codeCharta.html",
      "attributes": {
        "pairingRate": 42,
        "avgCommits": 8
      }
    }
  ],
  "attributeTypes": {
    "edges": [
      "pairingRate": "relative",
      "avgCommits": "absolute"
    ]
  }
}

Into a visual_edges.cc.json file that looks like this:

{
  "projectName": "Sample Project with edges",
  "apiVersion": "1.1",
  "nodes": [
    {
      "name": "root",
      "type": "Folder",
      "attributes": {},
      "children": [
        {
          "name": "app",
          "type": "Folder",
          "attributes": {},
          "children": [
            {
              "name": "codeCharta.html",
              "type": "File",

                "pairingRate": 49,
                "avgCommits": 18
              }
            },
            {

              }
            },

                "avgCommits": 8
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
