RepoToTxt

Gather all the info your LLM needs to understand your repo in one command.

Prerequisites

Create a virtual environment and then run:

pip install -r ./requirements.txt

Create a personal access token on Github and add it to your environment variables.

Powershell

$env:GITHUB_TOKEN="your-token"

Bash

export GITHUB_TOKEN="your-token"

How To Use

Analyzing a GitHub Repository

Run python main.py and paste your target repo's GitHub URL when prompted:

python main.py https://github.com/username/repository

Your results will be saved as outputs/{REPO_NAME}_analysis.txt

Analyzing a Local Directory

To analyze a local directory, provide the path to the directory:

python main.py /path/to/your/directory

Analyzing Specific Subdirectories

You can now analyze specific subdirectories within a local directory. Use the following syntax:

python main.py /path/to/base/directory [subdir1] [subdir2] [subdir3]

For example:

python main.py ../mycoolapp/cloud checkout functions admin

This will create separate analysis files for each subdirectory in the outputs folder:

• outputs/checkout_analysis.txt
• outputs/functions_analysis.txt
• outputs/admin_analysis.txt

Configuration

Update the value of ADD_INSTRUCTIONS in main.py if you wish to add LLM instructions to the file.

Output

The analysis output includes:

1. README content
2. Repository/directory structure
3. File contents (with optional summarization for large files)

Note

When analyzing GitHub repositories, ensure that your GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable is set correctly.
