https://technix.github.io/Perl-Analyzer/

This is a set of programs (and modules which can be used separately) that allow you to analyse and visualise Perl codebases:

• Namespaces and their relations
• Dependencies, i.e. list of 'use'd or 'require'd packages
• Inheritance, i.e. list of parent packages
• Methods implemented in package
• Methods inherited from parent packages
• Methods redefined from parent packages
• Calls to methods from parent package via SUPER

The software is split into two parts - analyzer (perl-analyzer, which uses Perl::Analyzer module) and renderer (perl-analyzer-output, which uses Perl::Analyzer::Output and related plugins).

Usage example:

perl-analyzer --source-dir=~/my/perl/Project --datafile=~/my/perl/Project_src.dat
perl-analyzer-output --datafile=~/my/perl/Project_src.dat --output-dir=~/my/perl/Project_analysis --format=html

Available output formats:

dump (requires Data::Dumper)

Generates set of dump files for Perl::Analyzer structures. Useful for debugging purposes.

json (requires JSON)

Generates set of JSON files.

html (requires Text::MicroTemplate and JSON)

Generates set of HTML files. Most informative and useful output - it allows to navigate through namespaces and view detailed package information.

dot, svg, png (requires GraphViz2)

Generates namespace and inheritance diagrams in given format.

To install this module, run the following commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

File analyzer code based on Module::Dependency by Tim Bunce and P Kent.
