ImanSoftware.DepLens.Cli 1.1.0

DepLens CLI

Analyze a .NET codebase — one or many solutions — and get an interactive dependency graph as a single HTML file.

deplens is the command-line front end for DepLens, a dependency-analysis engine for .NET codebases. It scans a directory for .sln / .slnx files and .csproj projects, resolves Central Package Management versions, and produces a self-contained HTML report you can open in any browser — no server, no restore step.

Installation and verify

Requires the .NET 10 runtime.

dotnet tool install --global imansoftware.depLens.cli

Then

deplens --version

Usage

deplens analyze

Point it at a specific folder (it must be a directory, not a .sln or .csproj file), and optionally choose where the report is written:

deplens analyze "C:\Projects\MyApp" --output ".\reports"

Then open the generated dependency-graph.html in a browser.

What you get

• A package-level dependency graph and a solution-architecture view, in one report
• Solutions grouped visually, including projects shared across solutions
• Central Package Management resolved per project, with the version source (explicit, central, or override) shown
• A tree sidebar that stays in sync with the graph — click either one to explore
