export-codebase

export-codebase is a CLI tool designed for Node.js projects. When you run npx export-codebase in your project directory, it reads all code and configuration files (excluding files listed in .gitignore, all .env files, and the node_modules directory) and combines their contents into a single project.txt file. Each file is prefixed with its relative path (e.g., //src/index.ts), followed by its code. This tool is useful for sharing or archiving your project's codebase in a single text file.

Features

• Ignores files and folders specified in .gitignore
• Always excludes .env files and node_modules directory
• Supports JavaScript, TypeScript, and configuration files
• Outputs all code into a single, well-structured project.txt

Usage

npx export-codebase

Options

• -o, --output <filename>: Specify the output file name (default: "project.txt")
• -s, --silent: Suppress informational logs (errors and final summary will still be shown)
• -h, --help: Display this help message
• --include-hidden: Process hidden files and folders (those starting with '.') that are not explicitly ignored by .gitignore or other rules.
