This is an 'internal' fork of the OSS version of Madge to enable the use of custom
dependencyFiltersto generaten-level depth graphs. For example to graph all modules under a single scope, for example@ux.
Madge is a developer tool for generating a visual graph of your module dependencies, finding circular dependencies, and give you other useful info. Joel Kemp's awesome dependency-tree is used for extracting the dependency tree.
- Works for JavaScript (AMD, CommonJS, and ES6 modules)
- Also works for CSS preprocessors (Sass, Stylus, and Less)
- NPM installed dependencies are excluded by default (can be enabled)
- All core Node.js modules (assert, path, fs, etc) are excluded
- Will traverse child dependencies automatically

I've worked with Madge on my free time for the last couple of years and it's been a great experience. It started as an experiment but turned out to be a very useful tool for many developers. I have many ideas for the project and it would definitely be easier to dedicate more time to it with some financial support 🙏
Regardless of your contribution, thanks for your support!
Graph generated from madge's own code and dependencies.
A graph with circular dependencies. Blue has dependencies, green has no dependencies, and red has circular dependencies.
npm -g install madgeGraphviz is only required if you want to generate visual graphs (e.g. in SVG or DOT format).
brew install graphviz || port install graphvizapt-get install graphviz

You can use configuration file either in .madgerc in your project or home folder or directly in package.json. Look here for alternative locations for the file.

Madge uses dependency-tree which uses filing-cabinet to resolve modules. However it requires configurations for each file type (js/jsx) and (ts/tsx). So provide both webpackConfig and tsConfig options to madge.
Only one syntax is used by default. You can use both though if you're willing to take the degraded performance. Put this in your madge config to enable mixed imports.
For ES6 + CommonJS:
{
"detectiveOptions": {
"es6": {
"mixedImports": true
}
}
}For TypeScript + CommonJS:
{
"detectiveOptions": {
"ts": {
"mixedImports": true
}
}
}Put this in your madge config.
{
"detectiveOptions": {
"es6": {
"skipTypeImports": true
}
}
}Put this in your madge config.
{
"detectiveOptions": {
"ts": {
"skipTypeImports": true
}
}
}Ensure you have this in your .tsconfig file.
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "commonjs",
"allowJs": true
}
}Ensure you have installed Graphviz. If you're running Windows, note that Graphviz is not added to the PATH variable during install. You should add the folder of gvpr.exe (typically %Graphviz_folder%/bin) to the PATH variable manually.
Homebrew doesn't include GTS by default. Fix this by doing:
brew uninstall graphviz
brew install gts
brew install graphvizTry running madge with a different layout, here's a list of the ones you can try:
-
dot "hierarchical" or layered drawings of directed graphs. This is the default tool to use if edges have directionality.
-
neato "spring model'' layouts. This is the default tool to use if the graph is not too large (about 100 nodes) and you don't know anything else about it. Neato attempts to minimize a global energy function, which is equivalent to statistical multi-dimensional scaling.
-
fdp "spring model'' layouts similar to those of neato, but does this by reducing forces rather than working with energy.
-
sfdp multiscale version of fdp for the layout of large graphs.
-
twopi radial layouts, after Graham Wills 97. Nodes are placed on concentric circles depending their distance from a given root node.
-
circo circular layout, after Six and Tollis 99, Kauffman and Wiese 02. This is suitable for certain diagrams of multiple cyclic structures, such as certain telecommunications networks.
