How to count the targets in a project

[pepicrft]

Shai asked how one can count the number of modules in a Tuist project. Even though we don’t have a first-class solution for that, you can use tuist dump in combination with jq as suggested by @danieleformichelli to achieve that:

tuist dump | jq '.targets | length'

View in #support on Slack

@Shai_Mishali: is there an easy way to get a count of all modules in a tuist project?

@Daniele_Formichelli: Maybe tuist dump and ask ChatGPT to extract it using jq ?

@Shai_Mishali: haha
i tried tuist graph --format json
but that’s also hard

@Mike: there has been some thought on making graph inspection generally easier to do, but nothing has shipped (or been shared as a prototype yet even) https://hachyderm.io/@Waltflanagan/113035515423036297

@Pedro: I’d follow @Daniele_Formichelli’s recommendation. When we have the solution that @Mike referenced it’ll much easier, but need some time to implement it

@Stefan_Fessler: one question: don’t you have every module in a subfolder of your project? maybe count them?
project
• modules
◦ moduelA
◦ moduelB
◦ ….

@Daniele_Formichelli: Isn’t tuist dump | jq '.targets | length' enough or am I missing something?

@Stefano_Mondino: might be harder if “project” is actually a workspace made of many projects
