unused-exports

Tries to find javascript module named exports that are not being used by other javascript modules.

How it works and how you should use it

It will recursively list all js files under a path, and by comparing required modules with module.exports it tries to find unused exports.

This method has several limitations but still might help you finding dead or poorly maintained code in big projects.

You should manually confirm the results before removing any code.

Install

npm i -g unused-exports

How to use

There are only 2 options, path and ignore.

unused-exports --path ./src --ignore node_modules/

Troubleshooting basics

If you have weird/weak results please try it with DEBUG=unused-exports:* unused-exports ... etc.

Testing

npm run test or npm run demo
