@mottalrd Hey Alfredo, thanks for suggesting this idea!
I've thought about a topic that is tangential to what you are talking about: Dependency Freshness.
@mscottford has talked about this in the Software Engineering Radio podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ob8RanicKE
It's based on this paper: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7202955
For some of my projects I've been using these tools:
bundle_report outdated
will give you a percentage showing how many dependencies are out of date in your system.Those two tools give me an idea of "dependency freshness" for a Ruby application.
Did you have an existing Ruby gem in mind when it comes to adding a dependency structure matrix analysis?
Good morning RubyCritic community, I use this tool often and I am very grateful for all your contributions here!
I love the churn/complexity visualisation of RubyCritic and I am wondering if other code visualisations have been considered for implementation. These are some visualisations that I would love to see in RubyCritic: (a) Treemaps (here). CodeCity is another cool variation of this here (b) Dependency Structure Matrix (here)
Has any of these been considered for implementation? If so can anyone point me to the conversation?
Thank you 🙏 have a good day Alfredo
