copycode 0.2.1

Copy all your code to your clipboard or a file with one command.

CopyCode

CopyCode is a CLI tool that gathers your source code files and copies them to your clipboard or saves them to a file. It is especially useful when you want to quickly provide your project's code to AI tools like ChatGPT. The package also displays the number of files processed, total lines of code, and a list of processed files.

Features

• Copies .py, .js, and .html by default, or any extensions specified via configuration or command-line arguments.
• Excludes any files or directories you specify in the config file or with the --exclude flag.
• Generates a header before each file in the combined output.
• Outputs statistics including the number of files processed and total lines of code.
• Displays the names of all processed files.
• Optionally exports the combined code to a text file instead of just copying to the clipboard.
• Open source, MIT-licensed.
• can be configured using a config file

Installation

pip install copycode

Usage

copycode [path] [--exclude=files_or_folders] [--filetypes=.py,.js,...] [--outfile=output.txt]

other examples

Copy all .py, .js, and .html files from the current directory

copycode

Specify a different path

copycode /path/to/project

Exclude multiple files or folders

copycode . --exclude=secret.py,test.py

Specify filetypes to process instead of the defaults

copycode . --filetypes=.py,.ts

Save the output to a file instead of copying to clipboard

copycode . --outfile=all_code.txt

Installation

You can create a file named .copyconfig in your project or working directory. By default, copycode looks for a file named .copyconfig in the same directory as the main.py script. If it is not found, the defaults are used.

Below is an example config.yaml:

filetypes:
  - .py
  - .js
  - .html

exclude:
    - secret.py
    - node_modules

If you do not provide a config file, copycode defaults to excluding nothing and processing .py, .js, and .html files only. Any command-line arguments (like --exclude or --filetypes) will override or replace values from the config file.
