Code Analyzer

Description

code-analyzer is a CLI tool designed to analyze change information about plugins in the WooCommerce monorepo.

Commands

Currently there are just 2 commands:

1. lint. Analyzer is used as a linter for PRs to check if hook/template/db changes were introduced. It produces output either directly on CI or via setting output variables in GH actions.

Here is an example analyzer command, run from this directory:

pnpm run analyzer -- lint "release/6.8" "6.8.0" -b release/6.7

In this command we compare the release/6.7 and release/6.8 branches to find differences, and we're looking for changes introduced since 6.8.0 (using the @since tag).

To find out more about the other arguments to the command you can run pnpm run analyzer -- --help

2. major-minor. This simple CLI tool gives you the latest .0 major/minor released version of a plugin's mainfile based on Woo release conventions.

Here is an example major-minor command, run from this directory:

pnpm run analyzer major-minor -- "release/6.8" "plugins/woocommerce/woocommerce.php"

In this command we checkout the branch release/6.8 and check the version of the woocommerce.php mainfile located at the path passed. Note that at the time of writing the main file in this particular branch reports 6.8.1 so the output of this command is 6.8.0.

This command is particularly useful combined with the analyzer, allowing you to determine the last major/minor.0 version of a branch or ref before passing that as the version argument to analyzer.
