[ANN] pfff_visual, a fancy code visualizer/navigator for OCaml, and more

[Yoann Padioleau]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1676 bytes --]

Hi list,

It is my pleasure to announce pfff_visual, a code visualizer/navigator
for OCaml. Note that this is not a replacement for Emacs or vi, but more a
companion that works with Emacs/Vi.

A demo is available here:
part1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRZjBGD3osw
part2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=993pmNLY_VU

pfff_visual is using pfff, which is mainly an OCaml API to write
static analysis, dynamic analysis, code visualizations, code
navigations, or style-preserving source-to-source transformations such
as refactorings on source code. For now the effort is focused on PHP
but there is preliminary support for Javascript, and C++ code.
There is also preliminary support for OCaml code so that the infrastructure
can be used on the code of pfff itself.

You can get the source of pfff and pfff_visual here:
http://github.com/facebook/pfff

Here is how to install it:
$ git clone git@github.com:facebook/pfff.git
$ ./configure
$ make depend; make; make opt
$ ./pfff_visual /path/to/project/using/supported/languages

pfff has been tested on MacOS and Linux and is licensed under the LGPL.

I might have found a small error in a Makefile in h_visualizations,
where a '-I' is missing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
diff h_visualization/Makefile.orig h_visualization/Makefile
22c22
< INCLUDES= -I $(TOP)/commons $(TOP)/commons/lib-json
---
> INCLUDES= -I $(TOP)/commons -I $(TOP)/commons/lib-json

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

because something like:

    ocamlc -g -dtypes -thread   -I ../commons ../commons/lib-json/  -c
figures.mli

(without repetition of '-I')
won't compile on my machine.

This is because you didn't download the latest version.
You can try: git clone git://github.com/facebook/pfff.git

You can also download pfff tarballs from this page:
http://github.com/facebook/pfff/archives/master

For the people who refuse to vomit while watching a video,
here are a few screenshots of the visualizer applied on the linux
kernel source, the ocaml source, and the source of pfff itself:

http://padator.org/software/pfff/pfff_linux_source.jpg
http://padator.org/software/pfff/pfff_ocaml_source.jpg

http://padator.org/software/pfff/pfff_ocaml_source3.jpg
http://padator.org/software/pfff/pfff_pfff_source.jpg

The screenshots can not show the integration with Emacs though.  You'll have
to suffer and watch the videos for that.

If you don't have git, you can still download pfff by following this link:
 http://github.com/facebook/pfff/archives/master

Re: [Caml-list] [ANN] pfff_visual, a fancy code visualizer/navigator for OCaml, and more

[Andrei Formiga]

Hi,

I like the idea of code visualization and would like to try
pfff_visual. Alas, I'm having trouble building it. The first thing I
noticed is that the repository bundles versions of all its
dependencies, apparently. I have most of these installed already
through GODI, and I didn't look at the makefiles, but does the code
try to use the system versions of the libraries, if present? Right now
the error I'm seeing seems to be related to ocaml-bdb, though I have a
version installed (and working) through GODI:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/andrei/tmp/pfff/external/ocamlbdb'
ocamlc -c bdb.ml
File "bdb.ml", line 255, characters 19-30:
Error: Unbound constructor DB_NOTFOUND
make[2]: *** [bdb.cmo] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/andrei/tmp/pfff/external/ocamlbdb'
make[1]: *** [rec] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/andrei/tmp/pfff'
make: *** [all] Error 2

So maybe this would work if the build could use the version I already
have installed.

Nope. It is using only library code from external/.

I've updated the git repository to remove the dependency to ocamlbdb (it is used
now only when processing PHP code, which I guess you don't care). Can you pull
again or download the latest version (git clone git://github.com/facebook/pfff.git )
and  use ./configure -nobdb ?

Could you send me bdb.ml  and  /usr/include/db.h ?
Which OS are you using ?

[ANN] pfff_visual, a fancy code visualizer/navigator for OCaml, and more

[Yoann Padioleau]

Hi list,

It is my pleasure to announce pfff_visual, a code visualizer/navigator
for OCaml. Note that this is not a replacement for Emacs or vi, but more a
companion that works with Emacs/Vi.

A demo is available here:
 part1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRZjBGD3osw
 part2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=993pmNLY_VU

pfff_visual is using pfff, which is mainly an OCaml API to write
static analysis, dynamic analysis, code visualizations, code
navigations, or style-preserving source-to-source transformations such
as refactorings on source code. For now the effort is focused on PHP
but there is preliminary support for Javascript, and C++ code.
There is also preliminary support for OCaml code so that the infrastructure
can be used on the code of pfff itself.

You can get the source of pfff and pfff_visual here:
 http://github.com/facebook/pfff

Here is how to install it:
 $ git clone git@github.com:facebook/pfff.git
 $ ./configure
 $ make depend; make; make opt
 $ ./pfff_visual /path/to/project/using/supported/languages

pfff has been tested on MacOS and Linux and is licensed under the LGPL.
