Analyze code for potentially uncalled / dead methods, now with auto-removal.

Features/Problems:

  • Static analysis of code. Can be easily hooked up to a CI.

  • As with all static analysis tools of dynamic languages, can’t be 100%.

  • Whitelisting known good methods by name or regexp.

  • Use –rails for Rails-specific domain knowledge.

  • Use debride_rm to brazenly remove all unused methods. BE CAREFUL.

  • Use debride_rails_whitelist to generate an emperical whitelist from logs.

  • Uses path_expander, so you can use:

    • dir_arg – expand a directory automatically

    • @file_of_args – persist arguments in a file

    • -path_to_subtract – ignore intersecting subsets of files/directories
