aicodeprep (AI Code Prep free / open source command line version)

aicodeprep is a command-line tool designed to simplify the process of sharing your project's code with AI chatbots. It recursively scans your project directory, concatenates all code files into a single text file, and copies the content to your clipboard for easy pasting into a LLM chat.

Purpose

The primary purpose of aicodeprep is to save time when you need to ask AI chatbots questions about your development project. Instead of manually copying and pasting multiple files, aicodeprep automates the process of gathering all your project's code into a single, easily shareable format.

Windows Installation

You can install aicodeprep directly from PyPI:

pip install aicodeprep

Linux Installation (Debian / Ubuntu / Mint)

pip install --user aicodeprep

sudo apt-get install xclip

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc

source ~/.bashrc

Linux Installation (Fedora)

pip install --user aicodeprep

sudo dnf install xclip

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"' >> ~/.bashrc

source ~/.bashrc

xclip is needed in Linux for the clipboard functionality

Usage

After installation, you can run aicodeprep from any directory containing your project files and folders:

aicodeprep

This will create a file named fullcode.txt in the current directory and copy its contents to your clipboard.

Options

• -n, --no-copy: Do NOT copy output to clipboard (default behavior is to copy)
• -o FILENAME, --output FILENAME: Specify the output file name (default: fullcode.txt)

Example:

aicodeprep -n -o my_project_code.txt

This will create my_project_code.txt without copying to clipboard.

Configuration

You can customize aicodeprep's behavior by creating a aicodeprep_config.yaml file in your project directory. Here's an example:

code_extensions:

• .py
• .js
• .html exclude_dirs:
• node_modules
• venv max_file_size: 500000 # in bytes
