SQL for your code

Code in a new light

NeonQuery allows you to treat your Codebase like a Database. It is SQL for your code.

select case when
  classes.name is not null then
    classes.name || '.' || functions.name
  ELSE
    functions.name end as name,
    cast(count as integer) as y, functions.identity
from(
  select count(*) as count, parent_identity
  from parameters
  where project = 'your_project'
  group by parent_identity
) as cph
join functions
  on cph.parent_identity = functions.identity
left join classes
  on functions.parent_identity = classes.identity
join node_to_git as git
  on functions.id = git.node_id
where functions.project = 'your_project'
  and git.oid = '665da50567413485c46dca3f9fd6f6ba7e288e97'
order by y desc limit 5

NeonQuery analyzes and persists your data in a way that lets you query it like a SQL database. During analysis NeonQuery captures all relevant data including type information and the code hierarchy. Every bit of information is saved in a relational database allowing you to use SQL to understand your code.

Search beyond text

Code is highly relational. It forms a connected network of various elements. However, normally it’s treated like flat text.
With traditional code-search approaches you are limited to text-based queries. You might be able to use a regex or some basic filtering. However, the structure, context and relationships of your code are lost and can't be queried.

NeonQuery changes that. It gives you the full power of SQL to query your code in a structured way. With all the relevant information still in place. Call sites, class instantiations, assignments and full type information – everything is at your fingertips. Ask any question like:

What are the longest functions with 4 or more arguments that are called at least 5 times?
Which classes have the most methods, ranked by the sum of all method calls combined?
How many functions use more than two primitive types as their parameters, and how often are they called?

Analyze and share

A better way of understanding code

With the built-in dashboards you can take control of your code. View your most important metrics at a glance, then drill down into the specifics with deep links to your code.

Beautiful graphs help you understand all the aspects of your code. Customize them and define your own.

From your entire codebase to file level down to every single element – with NeonQuery you decide what you want to focus on and what’s the main angle of your analysis. You can see functions within their call context, not just in their files. Your goal: Understanding your codebase. Our goal: Providing you the best tools, so you can easily succeed.

NeonQuery is language agnostic and provides you with a useful abstraction layer. You can jump between functions, classes and statements. Dive into your code, dig around and discover how it really works all together.
