Sloc Cloc and Code (scc)
A tool similar to cloc, sloccount and tokei. For counting physical the lines of code, blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages.
Goal is to be the fastest code counter possible, but also perform COCOMO calculation like sloccount and to estimate code complexity similar to cyclomatic complexity calculators. In short one tool to rule them all and the one I wish I had before I wrote it.
Also it has a very short name which is easy to type scc.

Pitch
Why use scc?
- It is very fast and gets faster the more CPU you throw at it
- Accurate
- Works very well across multiple platforms without slowdown (Windows, Linux, macOS)
- Large language support
- Can ignore duplicate files
- Has complexity estimations
Why not use scc?
- Unable to tell the difference between Coq and Verilog (currently, if enough people raise a bug it will be resolved)
- You don't like Go for some reason
- You are working on a Linux system with less than 4 CPU cores and really need the fastest counter possible (use loc or polyglot)
Usage
Command line usage of scc is designed to be as simple as possible.
Full details can be found in scc --help.
$ scc --help

Features
scc uses a small state machine in order to determine what state the code is when it reaches a newline \n. As such it is aware of and able to count
- Single Line Comments
- Multi Line Comments
- Strings
- Multi Line Strings
- Blank lines
Because of this it is able to accurately determine if a comment is in a string or is actually a comment.
It also attempts to count the complexity of code. This is done by checking for branching operations in the code. For example, each of the following for if switch while else || && != == if encountered in Java would increment that files complexity by one.
Performance
Generally scc will be very close to the runtime of tokei or faster than any other code counter out there. It is designed to scale to as many CPU's cores as you can provide.
However if you want greater performance and you have RAM to spare you can disable the garbage collector like the following on linux GOGC=-1 scc . which should speed things up considerably.
Benchmarks are run on fresh 32 CPU Optimised Digital Ocean Virtual Machine 2018/09/19 all done using hyperfine with 3 warm-up runs and 10 timed runs.

API Support
The core part of scc which is the counting engine is exposed publicly to be integrated into other Go applications. See https://github.com/pinpt/ripsrc for an example of how to do this.
Adding/Modifying Languages
To add or modify a language you will need to edit the languages.json file in the root of the project, and then run go generate to build it into the application. You can then go install or go build as normal to produce the binary with your modifications.
Issues
Its possible that you may see the counts vary between runs. This usually means one of two things. Either something is changing or locking the files under scc, or that you are hitting ulimit restrictions. To change the ulimit see the following links.
- https://superuser.com/questions/261023/how-to-change-default-ulimit-values-in-mac-os-x-10-6#306555
- https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/108174/how-to-persistently-control-maximum-system-resource-consumption-on-mac/221988#221988
- https://access.redhat.com/solutions/61334
- https://serverfault.com/questions/356962/where-are-the-default-ulimit-values-set-linux-centos
- https://www.tecmint.com/increase-set-open-file-limits-in-linux/
To help identify this issue run scc like so scc -v . and look for the message too many open files in the output. If it is there you can rectify it by setting your ulimit to a higher value.
Low Memory
If you are running scc in a low memory environment < 512 MB of RAM you may need to set --filegccount or --fgc to a lower value such as 0 to force the garbage collector to be on at all times.
A sign that this is required will be scc crashing with panic errors.
Tests
scc is pretty well tested with many unit, integration and benchmarks to ensure that it is fast and complete.
Package
Run go build for windows and linux then the following in linux, keep in mind need to update the version
GOOS=darwin GOARCH=amd64 go build -ldflags="-s -w" && zip -r9 scc-1.0.0-x86_64-apple-darwin.zip scc
GOOS=darwin GOARCH=386 go build -ldflags="-s -w" && zip -r9 scc-1.0.0-i386-apple-darwin.zip scc
