Code-Ref

Keep distant parts of your code base in sync by using searchable cross-references.

It's a simple, yet powerful concept. Just run npx coderef to copy a unique tag to your clipboard (like §SDyBm), then use it to link different parts of your codebase together.

Example

someScript.js

const el = document.querySelector('#someElement')
const color = '#00f' // Search this project for §xRDEM to find other locations that use this color.
el.style.backgroundColor = color

pageStyle.css

body {
    /* Search this project for §xRDEM to find other locations that use this color. */
    color: #00f;
}

Anyone reading this code can know that if they use their favorite project-searching tool (via their editor, grep, etc), they can easily find all related pieces of code.

Happy Coding!

API

If for some reason you choose to install and import this package, you will find it exposes a single generate function, which, when called, returns a randomly generated tag.
