[ANN] lein-codeindex 0.1.0 - Easy code indexing and referencing for Emacs, Vim and other editors

[Sanel Zukan]

Hi everyone,

I'm happy to announce first version of lein-codeindex, source code indexer

that will scan and reference your project files and all dependencies

used by the project.

This is Leiningen plugin that can generate references for Emacs (with

etags) or Vim and other editors (with ctags).

You can details on github page

(https://github.com/sanel/lein-codeindex) and some common usage in

this post: http://acidwords.com/posts/2016-12-29-code-indexing-with-lein-codeindex.html.

Best,

Sanel

What is the benefit of tags over cider's go to definition functionality or docs functionality?

Plenty of functions comes without docs strings, especially private
ones.

Also, go-to-definition will jump to implementation of current
function/ns only; you are not able to use auto-completion with tags,
symbol regex search (e.g. 'into-*') nor listing all references to
e.g. 'assoc-in' used through the code.

If you are funky enough, you can even integrate tags index with your
zsh/bash shell:

Played around with it and it was pretty cool. Did have to change your code to specify a full path for ctags on my machine.

The thing is, when I tried something like namespace/function it didn't follow... that would be my main usage I'd say. Any plans to accomplish that?

Thanks! I'll add this as TODO for the next version.

I'm aware of this problem. This issue is mainly related to ctags/etags
limitations and has been brought up before [1]. For now, maybe you can
try with newer ctags version [2] or adjust $HOME/.ctags with custom
Clojure regular expressions and cut off namespace part (pretty crude
solution).

But the answer is yes, this is in my TODO for one of the next releases.
