# This scripts counts the lines of code and comments in all source files
# and prints the results to the command line. It uses the commandline tool
# "cloc". You can either pass --loc, --comments or --percentage to show the
# respective values only.
# Some parts below need to be adapted to your project!

# Get the location of this script.

# Run cloc - this counts code lines, blank lines and comment lines
# for the specified languages. You will need to change this accordingly.
# For C++, you could use "C++,C/C++ Header" for example.
# We are only interested in the summary, therefore the tail -1
SUMMARY="$(cloc "${SCRIPT_DIR}" --include-lang="Python" --md | tail -1)"

# The $SUMMARY is one line of a markdown table and looks like this:
# SUM:|101|3123|2238|10783

# To make the estimate of commented lines more accurate, we have to
# subtract any copyright header which is included in each file.
# For Fly-Pie, this header has the length of five lines.
# All dumb comments like those /////////// or those // ------------ 
# are also subtracted. As cloc does not count inline comments,
# the overall estimate should be rather conservative.
