A Ruby CLI application that analyzes Git repository metrics to provide insights into team productivity, code quality, and development health. Built following Clean Code principles with comprehensive refactoring and modern Ruby practices.
- Git Analysis: 13 core metrics across 4 categories (Commit Activity, Code Churn, Reliability, Flow)
- Multiple Formats: Analysis reports in text, JSON, CSV, HTML, and Markdown
- Time Periods: Flexible analysis from 30-day windows to complete repository history
- Clean Architecture: Extensively refactored following SOLID principles and Sandi Metz rules
- Service Objects: Modular design with 50+ service objects and value objects
- Ruby Best Practices: 100% compliance with Clean Code methodology
# Clone the repository
git clone <repository-url>
cd dev-metrics-new
# Install dependencies
bundle install
# Or install RSpec manually for testing
gem install rspec# Analyze current repository (default: last 30 days)
./bin/dev-metrics analyze
# Analyze complete repository history
./bin/dev-metrics analyze --all-time
# Generate HTML report
./bin/dev-metrics analyze --format=html
# Generate JSON report with custom time period
./bin/dev-metrics analyze --format=json --since=2024-01-01# Available Commands
./bin/dev-metrics analyze [path] # Analyze repositories (default: current directory)
./bin/dev-metrics scan [path] # Legacy alias for analyze
./bin/dev-metrics config # Manage configuration
./bin/dev-metrics help # Show help information
# Format Options
--format=text # Plain text report (default)
--format=html # Rich HTML report with styling
--format=json # JSON data for integration
--format=csv # CSV for spreadsheet analysis
--format=markdown # Markdown format
# Time Period Options
--all-time # Analyze complete repository history
--since=DATE # Start date (YYYY-MM-DD or relative like 30d)
--until=DATE # End date (YYYY-MM-DD)
# Other Options
--contributors=X # Focus on specific contributors (comma-separated)
--exclude-bots # Exclude bot accounts from analysis
--exclude-merges # Exclude merge commits from analysis
--no-progress # Disable progress indicators- commits_per_developer: Developer contribution analysis
- commit_size: Lines changed distribution
- commit_frequency: Temporal commit patterns

- co_change_pairs: File coupling analysis
- revert_rate: Code stability measurement
- bugfix_ratio: Quality indicator with pattern analysis
- large_commits: Risk assessment for oversized changes
- lead_time: Development cycle efficiency

commit_size: ✅ Success - 10 categories, 27 records
bugfix_ratio: ✅ Success - 4 categories, 34 commits analyzed
RELIABILITY
----------------------------------------
bugfix_ratio: ✅ Success - 4 categories, 34 commits analyzed
revert_rate: ✅ Success - 4 categories, 27 commits
large_commits: ✅ Success - 6 categories, 27 commits

# Run specific metric tests

rspec --format documentation"Path does not exist" error with --all-time flag
- ✅ Fixed: CLI argument parser now properly distinguishes flags from paths
- Use:
./bin/dev-metrics analyze --all-time(not--all-timeas a path)
Metrics showing 0 data points
- ✅ Fixed: Custom BaseMetric calculate methods bypass error handling
- Now shows actual data: "34 commits analyzed" instead of "0 records"
Missing require statements after refactoring
- ✅ Fixed: All require_relative statements properly maintained
- Service objects and value objects correctly loaded via Zeitwerk
Large commit analysis showing incorrect data
- ✅ Fixed: Repository constructor and method calls properly aligned
- Test scripts updated to use correct parameter patterns
Comprehensive Ruby Refactoring Completed ✅
- SOLID Principles: Full compliance with Single Responsibility, Open/Closed, etc.
- Sandi Metz Rules: All classes <100 lines, methods <10 lines, <4 parameters
- Service Objects: 50+ specialized services (CommitClassifier, AuthorBugfixAnalyzer, etc.)
- Value Objects: Rich domain models (BugfixSummary, TimePeriod, etc.)
- Clean Architecture: Proper separation of concerns and dependency injection
- Error Handling: Robust BaseMetric framework with custom calculate methods
- Template System: ERB-based reporting with multiple output formats
Current Status: ✅ Production Ready
- Core Functionality: 13 Git metrics fully implemented and tested
- Refactoring: Complete codebase refactoring following Clean Code principles
- Architecture: Service-oriented design with 50+ service objects
- Testing: Comprehensive RSpec test suite
- CLI: Fully functional command-line interface with multiple output formats
- Documentation: Complete metric analysis with rich HTML/JSON reports
Recent Achievements:
- Fixed data points display issues (0 → 34+ data points)
- Resolved CLI argument parsing for
--all-timeflag - Implemented custom BaseMetric error handling bypass
- Simplified codebase by removing unused report formats
- Created 4 specialized service objects for bugfix ratio analysis
