RemoveCommentary

A simple and efficient tool to clean up comments from your codebase recursively.

Features

• Supports multiple languages: C-styled languages (C/C++/Java/Rust/C#), Python, Haskell, and Markup (HTML/XML).
• Recursively traverses directories to process all applicable files.
• Safely removes both single-line and multi-line/block comments.

Usage

To use this tool, run the executable with the directory path as the argument:

RemoveCommentary <path_to_directory>

For example:

RemoveCommentary ./src

This will process all files in the ./src directory, removing comments based on the file extensions.

Note: Please backup your codebase in advance in case of unexpected damages.

Requirements

• Rust Programming Language
• walkdir and derive_more crates

Building

Compile the program with Rust's package manager, Cargo:

cargo build --release

The resulting executable will be in target/release.
