Complete support of source files

[fenollp]

If we don't know which OTP release a project will compile with, how will we be able to run Geas? As of now it only runs on compiled projects!

Please add support for source files (erlang at least).
Once support is ready, we can add Geas output to other.erldocs.com. There's an issue there already erldocs/other.erldocs.com#88

Yes, actually geas is to be used on own projects and dependencies , so generally, compilation is ok and geas usefull to know on what other release the global project can run, mainly due to dependancies contraints.
A source mode is usefull for the reason you gave, mainly when using geas on a large bunch of external projects.
I will look into this !

Note, you can run geas, let say with 17.5 , and be able to know if a project can run on 18.2 if the geas database is uptodate.
But the need is to know what release is needed to compile.

my last commit allow to check source files if environment variable GEAS_USE_SRC=1 is set.
(unset or GEAS_USE_SRC=0 to go back to default).
Your feedback welcome.

Looking forward to it! How can I use geas on a non rebar/erlang.mk project with GEAS_USE_SRC=1 set?

[crownedgrouse]

Geas do not care of build system. It analyze only. app or .app.src, Beam files or erl files, depending env variable.

[crownedgrouse]

By using geas:info() in a shell, or an escript

[crownedgrouse]

Need only a path to root directory
