プロジェクトの歴史

The public GitHub repository was created in 2022 and the first GitHub release was tagged as 0.1.1 in July 2022. The README positions the project as a simple include-graph analyzer built around LLVM/Clang compilation database inputs.

The project stayed narrow by design: its documented feature set is include-tree printing, reverse trees, topological order, cycle listing, dependant lookup, and graph export rather than a broader static-analysis platform.

採用の歴史

Homebrew packages clang-include-graph from GitHub release archives and ships bottles for macOS and Linux. Homebrew analytics showed 412 installs over the prior 365 days for the formula, indicating niche but real command-line distribution.

使われ方

The tool expects a compile_commands.json database or compile_flags.txt, then lets users select translation units and choose output formats such as JSON, Graphviz, GraphML, PlantUML, tree views, cycles, or dependency queries.

パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

For package-manager users it is a compact example of a modern LLVM-dependent C++ analysis CLI: the formula tracks tagged GitHub tarballs, depends on boost and llvm, and exists primarily to make source-tree architecture inspection scriptable.

タイムライン

Related projects

• The project is closely related to clang-uml, another bkryza Clang-based diagramming tool, but clang-include-graph focuses only on include relationships.
• It also relies on the Clang JSON compilation database convention used by CMake, Bear, and other C/C++ build tooling.
