Docs / Using Prism

Graph

The local graph of your repository, and the file you can open and share.

Open the graph of this repo. Do not grep for structure.

Prism keeps a graph of packages, files, symbols, tests, and the imports between them. It is built on your machine. Nothing is uploaded.

Ask the graph tool when you want to know where something is, what uses it, or how one file reaches another. Every edge says whether it was measured, guessed from a heuristic, or inferred. Open the file before you rely on an inferred edge.

prism graph export

export writes graph.json: every node and edge with its provenance, for your own tools. Prism 2.0 no longer writes an HTML page or a markdown report; ask the graph tool, or run prism cycles and prism deps, for the measured findings.

Understand a repo

Orient to an unfamiliar repository with DNA, stack, and landmarks.

The repository index

Prism's parsed copy of your repository. Every answer comes from it.
