# Recator 🔧

**Recator** - Automated code duplicate detection and refactoring library for Python

[![Python Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.7%2B-blue)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-Apache%202.0-green)](LICENSE)

## 📋 Overview

Recator is a powerful Python library that automatically detects and refactors code duplicates across multiple programming languages using simple heuristics without requiring LLMs. It works efficiently on CPU and supports various programming languages including Python, JavaScript, Java, C/C++, and more.

## ✨ Features

- **Multi-language Support**: Python, JavaScript, Java, C/C++, C#, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Kotlin, Swift
- **Multiple Detection Algorithms**:
  - Exact duplicate detection (hash-based)
  - Token-based similarity detection
  - Fuzzy matching using sequence comparison
  - Structural similarity detection (same structure, different names)
- **Automated Refactoring Strategies**:
  - Extract Method - for duplicate code blocks
  - Extract Class - for structural duplicates
  - Extract Module - for file-level duplicates
  - Parameterize - for similar code with differences
- **Safe Mode**: Creates `.refactored` versions without modifying originals
- **CPU Efficient**: Uses simple heuristics, no GPU or LLM required
- **Configurable**: Adjustable thresholds and parameters

## 🚀 Installation

```bash
# Basic installation
pip install recator

# Or install from source
git clone https://github.com/pyfunc/recator.git
cd recator
pip install -e .

# Install with development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Install with advanced features
pip install -e ".[advanced]"
```

## 📖 Usage

### Command Line Interface

```bash
# Basic analysis
recator /path/to/project

# Verbose analysis with custom parameters
recator /path/to/project -v --min-lines 6 --threshold 0.9

# Preview refactoring suggestions
recator /path/to/project --refactor

# Show duplicate code snippets (first N) during analysis
recator /path/to/project --analyze --show-snippets --max-show 5 -v

# Interactive selection of duplicates to refactor (dry-run preview)
recator /path/to/project --refactor --interactive --dry-run

# Refactor on demand by selecting duplicates (IDs or ranges)
# Example selects IDs 1, 3, 4, 5
recator /path/to/project --refactor --select 1,3-5 --dry-run

# Apply refactoring (creates .refactored files)
recator /path/to/project --refactor --apply

# Analyze specific languages only
recator /path/to/project --languages python javascript

# Exclude patterns
recator /path/to/project --exclude "*.test.js" "build/*"

# Save results to JSON
recator /path/to/project --output results.json

# Show duplicate code snippets (once per duplicate) and all occurrences
recator /path/to/project --analyze --show-snippets --max-show 0 --max-blocks 0 -v

# Suppress overlapping/near-identical groups (default) vs show all
recator /path/to/project --analyze -v                         # suppressed
recator /path/to/project --analyze -v --no-suppress-duplicates  # no suppression

# Control snippet preview size in verbose mode
recator /path/to/project --analyze -v --snippet-lines 12
```

### Python API

```python
from recator import Recator

# Initialize with project path
recator = Recator('/path/to/project')

# Analyze for duplicates
results = recator.analyze()
print(f"Found {results['duplicates_found']} duplicates")

# Get detailed duplicate information
for duplicate in results['duplicates']:
    print(f"Type: {duplicate['type']}")
    print(f"Files: {duplicate.get('files', [])}")
    print(f"Confidence: {duplicate.get('confidence', 0)}")

# Preview refactoring
preview = recator.refactor_duplicates(dry_run=True)
print(f"Estimated LOC reduction: {preview['estimated_loc_reduction']}")

# Apply refactoring
refactoring_results = recator.refactor_duplicates(dry_run=False)
print(f"Modified {len(refactoring_results['modified_files'])} files")
```

### Custom Configuration

```python
from recator import Recator

config = {
    'min_lines': 5,                    # Minimum lines for duplicate
    'min_tokens': 40,                  # Minimum tokens for duplicate
    'similarity_threshold': 0.90,      # Similarity threshold (0-1)
    'languages': ['python', 'java'],   # Languages to analyze
    'exclude_patterns': ['*.min.js'],  # Patterns to exclude
    'safe_mode': True,                 # Don't modify originals
}

recator = Recator('/path/to/project', config)
results = recator.analyze()
```

## 🔍 Detection Algorithms

### 1. Exact Duplicate Detection
Finds identical code blocks using hash comparison.

### 2. Token-based Detection
Compares token sequences to find duplicates that may have different formatting.

### 3. Fuzzy Matching
Uses sequence matching algorithms to find similar (but not identical) code.

### 4. Structural Detection
Identifies code with the same structure but different variable/function names.

## 🛠️ Refactoring Strategies

### Extract Method
```python
# Before: Duplicate blocks in multiple places
def process_user(user):
    # validation block (duplicate)
    if not user.email:
        raise ValueError("Email required")
    if "@" not in user.email:
        raise ValueError("Invalid email")
    # ... processing

def update_user(user):
    # validation block (duplicate)
    if not user.email:
        raise ValueError("Email required")
    if "@" not in user.email:
        raise ValueError("Invalid email")
    # ... updating

# After: Extracted method
def validate_user_email(user):
    if not user.email:
        raise ValueError("Email required")
    if "@" not in user.email:
        raise ValueError("Invalid email")

def process_user(user):
    validate_user_email(user)
    # ... processing

def update_user(user):
    validate_user_email(user)
    # ... updating
```

### Extract Module
Creates shared modules for file-level duplicates.

### Parameterize
Converts similar code with differences into parameterized functions.

## 🔧 Configuration File

Create a `recator.json` configuration file:

```json
{
  "min_lines": 4,
  "min_tokens": 30,
  "similarity_threshold": 0.85,
  "languages": ["python", "javascript", "java"],
  "exclude_patterns": [
    "*.min.js",
    "*.min.css",
    "node_modules/*",
    ".git/*",
    "build/*",
    "dist/*"
  ],
  "safe_mode": true
}
```

Use with: `recator /path/to/project --config recator.json`

## 🧪 Examples

See `examples/1/` for a minimal TypeScript example with intentionally duplicated blocks:

```bash
# From repository root
recator examples/1 --analyze --languages javascript \
  --min-lines 7 --min-tokens 15 \
  --show-snippets --max-show 0 --max-blocks 0 -v

# Interactive refactor preview for selected duplicates
recator examples/1 --refactor --interactive --dry-run --show-snippets

# Compare suppression behavior
recator examples/1 --analyze --languages javascript --min-lines 7 -v
recator examples/1 --analyze --languages javascript --min-lines 7 -v --no-suppress-duplicates
```

## 🧩 Duplicate Snippet Display & On-demand Refactor

- **Show snippets:** Use `--show-snippets` with `--analyze` to print representative code blocks for duplicates (e.g., exact blocks or token previews). Control output size with `--max-show`.
- **On-demand refactor:** Use `--interactive` to choose duplicates interactively, or `--select 1,3-5` to pass IDs directly. Combine with `--refactor` and `--dry-run` for a safe preview. Use `--apply --no-dry-run` to apply changes where supported.

Tip: Start with stricter thresholds and increase gradually to avoid excessive output on large codebases.

## 🧱 Portability Notes

Recator uses a pure-Python, stable 64-bit hashing (FNV-1a) to identify identical fragments. This avoids reliance on OpenSSL-backed `hashlib` algorithms, so it works even in environments where `md5/sha*` are unavailable.

## ⚙️ How It Works

1. **Scanning**: Traverses project directory to find source files

3. **Detection**: Applies multiple algorithms to find duplicates
4. **Analysis**: Groups and ranks duplicates by confidence
5. **Refactoring**: Suggests or applies appropriate refactoring strategies
6. **Output**: Generates modified files or preview reports
