codemodctl

CLI tool and utilities for workflow engine operations, file sharding, and codeowner analysis.

Installation

npm install codemodctl

Usage

As a CLI Tool

# Analyze CODEOWNERS and generate sharding configuration
codemodctl codeowner --shard-size 20 --state-prop shards --rule ./rule.yaml

As a Library

Deterministic File Sharding

import { getShardForFilename, fitsInShard, distributeFilesAcrossShards } from 'codemodctl/sharding';

// Get the shard index for a specific file - always deterministic!
const shardIndex = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });

// Same file + same shard count = same result, every time
const shard1 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });
const shard2 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });
console.log(shard1 === shard2); // always true

// Check if a file belongs to a specific shard
const belongsToShard = fitsInShard('src/components/Button.tsx', { 
  shardCount: 5, 
  shardIndex: 2 
});

// Distribute all files across shards
const files = ['file1.ts', 'file2.ts', 'file3.ts'];
const distribution = distributeFilesAcrossShards(files, 5);

Codeowner Analysis

import { analyzeCodeowners, findCodeownersFile } from 'codemodctl/codeowners';

// Analyze codeowners and generate shard configuration
const result = await analyzeCodeowners({
  shardSize: 20,
  rulePath: './rule.yaml',
  projectRoot: process.cwd()
});

console.log(`Generated ${result.shards.length} shards for ${result.totalFiles} files`);
result.teams.forEach(team => {
  console.log(`Team "${team.team}" owns ${team.fileCount} files`);
});

Complete API

import codemodctl from 'codemodctl';

// Access all utilities through the default export
const shardIndex = await codemodctl.sharding.getShardForFilename('file.ts', { shardCount: 5 });
const analysis = await codemodctl.codeowners.analyzeCodeowners(options);

Key Features

Deterministic File Sharding

The sharding algorithm uses deterministic hashing to ensure:

Perfect consistency: Same file + same shard count = same result, always
No external dependencies: Result depends only on filename and shard count
Even distribution: SHA1 hashing provides good distribution across shards
Simple API: No complex parameters or configuration needed
Team-aware sharding: Works with codeowner boundaries

Codeowner Analysis

Automatic CODEOWNERS detection: Searches common locations (root, .github/, docs/)
AST-grep integration: Analyze files using custom rules
Team-based grouping: Groups files by their assigned teams
Shard generation: Creates optimal shard configuration based on team ownership

API Reference

Sharding Functions

getShardForFilename(filename, { shardCount }) - Get shard index for a file
fitsInShard(filename, { shardCount, shardIndex }) - Check shard membership
distributeFilesAcrossShards(files, shardCount) - Distribute files across shards
calculateOptimalShardCount(totalFiles, targetShardSize) - Calculate optimal shard count
getFileHashPosition(filename) - Get consistent hash position for a file

All functions are deterministic: same input always produces the same output.

Codeowner Functions

analyzeCodeowners(options) - Complete analysis with shard generation
findCodeownersFile(projectRoot?, explicitPath?) - Locate CODEOWNERS file
loadAstGrepRule(rulePath) - Parse AST-grep rule from YAML
analyzeFilesByOwner(codeownersPath, rule, projectRoot?) - Group files by owner
generateShards(filesByOwner, shardSize) - Generate shard configuration
normalizeOwnerName(owner) - Normalize owner names

Usage Examples

Simple Deterministic Sharding

import { getShardForFilename, distributeFilesAcrossShards } from 'codemodctl/sharding';

// Get shard for a file - always deterministic
const shard = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });

// Same input always gives same output
const shard1 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });
const shard2 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });
console.log(shard1 === shard2); // always true

// Different shard counts may give different results (that's expected)
const shard5 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 5 });
const shard10 = getShardForFilename('src/components/Button.tsx', { shardCount: 10 });
// shard5 and shard10 may be different, but each is consistent

// Distribute files deterministically  
const files = ['file1.ts', 'file2.ts', 'file3.ts'];
const distribution = distributeFilesAcrossShards(files, 5);

Key Benefits

No complex parameters: Just filename and shard count
Perfectly deterministic: Same input = same output, always
Fast and simple: Pure hash-based assignment
Works across runs: File gets same shard whether filesystem changes or not
