Polishing and improving codebases automatically

Polishing and improving codebases automatically

refine leverages the capabilities of libCST (Library for Concrete Syntax Trees), a Python library designed for parsing, manipulating, and generating Python code in a syntax-preserving way. It builds upon libCST's codemod module, which provides utilities for transforming code programmatically.

Key Differentiators

Chained Codemod Execution

refine enables running multiple codemod's in a single CLI execution, streamlining workflows compared to libCST's one-codemod-per-execution approach.

Priority Management

Codemods are applied in a predefined order based on priorities defined by the modules. This ensures automatic logical sequencing of transformations.

Streamlined Features

Single-Pass Efficiency

Chained execution minimizes redundant parsing and tree-building processes, improving efficiency for large-scale projects.

Focus on Developer Productivity

By reducing the need for multiple executions, refine enhances developer workflows, especially in CI/CD pipelines or batch processing.
