Constants

const Version = "2"

Version is the schema version written into graph.json. v2: symbol IDs use module-rooted import paths (e.g. "github.com/org/repo/pkg::Symbol")

instead of relative file paths ("internal/pkg/file.go::Symbol").
This makes IDs stable across file renames within the same package.

Types

type CallEdge

type CallEdge struct {
	CallerSymbolID string `json:"caller_symbol_id"`
	CallerName     string `json:"caller_name"`
	CalleeRaw      string `json:"callee_raw"`
	// CalleeSymbolID is the *resolved* fully-qualified symbol ID of the
	// callee (e.g. "github.com/foo/bar/internal/auth::(*Service).Validate"),
	// populated by the precise/CHA pass when type info uniquely resolves
	// the call target. Empty when:
	//   - gograph was built without --precise
	//   - the callee is in stdlib or a non-source package the type-checker
	//     didn't load
	//   - the call site is dynamic (interface method, function value, etc.)
	//     and CHA couldn't pin a single concrete target
	// Consumers should prefer CalleeSymbolID for exact symbol matching
	// (eliminates the (*A).M vs (*B).M name-conflation footgun) and fall
	// back to CalleeRaw for legacy or unresolvable edges.
	CalleeSymbolID string `json:"callee_symbol_id,omitempty"`
	File           string `json:"file"`
	Line           int    `json:"line"`
	// ReturnUsage describes how the caller consumes the return value.
	// Values: "discarded", "assigned", "partially_ignored", "returned",
	//         "goroutine", "deferred", "" (nested/passed as argument).
	ReturnUsage string `json:"return_usage,omitempty"`
}

Graph is the top-level data structure written to .gograph/graph.json.

type GraphBaseline

type GraphBaseline struct {
	OrphanCount   int `json:"orphan_count"`
	CouplingEdges int `json:"coupling_edges"`
}

GraphBaseline stores metrics from the previous build for gate comparisons.

type HTTPCallEdge

type HTTPCallEdge struct {
	SourceFile     string   `json:"sourceFile"`
	SourceLine     int      `json:"sourceLine"`
	FunctionName   string   `json:"functionName"`
	Method         string   `json:"method"`
	URL            string   `json:"url"`
	StaticSegments []string `json:"staticSegments"`
	HasDynamic     bool     `json:"hasDynamic"`
}

HTTPCallEdge represents a detected HTTP client call (net/http).

type HTTPRoute

type HTTPRoute struct {
	Method  string `json:"method"`
	Path    string `json:"path"`
	Handler string `json:"handler"`
	// InlineBody holds the rendered source of an anonymous handler function.
	// Populated only when the handler is a *ast.FuncLit (closure), empty otherwise.
	// Captured at build time via go/printer — no file I/O needed at query time.
	InlineBody string `json:"inline_body,omitempty"`
	File       string `json:"file"`
	Line       int    `json:"line"`
}

HTTPRoute represents an HTTP REST endpoint found in the AST.

type ImplementsEdge

type ImplementsEdge struct {
	Interface string `json:"interface"`
	Concrete  string `json:"concrete"`
}

ImplementsEdge records absolute proof that a concrete type implements an interface.

type ImportEdge

type ImportEdge struct {
	FromFile    string `json:"from_file"`
	FromPackage string `json:"from_package"`
	ImportPath  string `json:"import_path"`
	Alias       string `json:"alias,omitempty"`
}

ImportEdge records an import statement in a file.

type LiteralEdge

type LiteralEdge struct {
	TypeName string `json:"type_name"`
	Function string `json:"function"`
	File     string `json:"file"`
	Line     int    `json:"line"`
}

LiteralEdge records a composite-literal initialization site for a named struct (e.g., User{Name: "foo"}). Essential for finding every site that breaks when a required field is added to or removed from a struct.

type MutationEdge

type MutationEdge struct {
	Field    string `json:"field"`
	Function string `json:"function"`
	File     string `json:"file"`
	Line     int    `json:"line"`
	Via      string `json:"via,omitempty"`
}

MutationEdge represents a mutation of a struct field. Two kinds:

Direct  — Via is empty. The function contains a literal assignment to
          a selector like  s.field = x  or  *p = v . This is the
          original behaviour (Function/Field/File/Line).

Indirect — Via is set. The function calls a *method* known to mutate
           its receiver, and the call site's receiver was a field
           selector on the enclosing function's own receiver
           (e.g.  s.counter.Increment()  where Increment() writes
           to counter's internal state). Via holds the bare name of
           the mutating method ("Increment"), so the output can show
           "field 'counter' mutated via Increment at line 12" — the
           caller can tell apart direct assignments from indirect
           mutations through wrapper APIs (atomic.*, sync.Map, etc.).

File/Line always point at the mutation site itself, not at the method definition. Indirect mutations are populated by the precise/SSA pass; non-precise builds only see direct assignments.

type PackageNode

type PackageNode struct {
	ID                   string   `json:"id"`
	Name                 string   `json:"name"`
	ImportPathBestEffort string   `json:"import_path_best_effort"`
	Dir                  string   `json:"dir"`
	Files                []string `json:"files"`
}

PackageNode represents a Go package found in the repository.

type SQLEdge

type SQLEdge struct {
	Query    string `json:"query"`
	Function string `json:"function"`
	File     string `json:"file"`
	Line     int    `json:"line"`
}

SQLEdge represents an extracted SQL query.

type StructField

type StructField struct {
	Name string `json:"name"`
	Type string `json:"type"`
	Tag  string `json:"tag,omitempty"`
}

StructField represents a field inside a struct.

type SymbolKind

type SymbolKind string

SymbolKind categorises a symbol.

const (
	KindFunction  SymbolKind = "function"
	KindMethod    SymbolKind = "method"
	KindStruct    SymbolKind = "struct"
	KindInterface SymbolKind = "interface"
	KindVar       SymbolKind = "var"
	KindConst     SymbolKind = "const"
	// KindType covers type declarations whose underlying type is neither a
	// struct nor an interface: type aliases (type Foo = Bar), named
	// primitives (type StatusCode int), function types
	// (type HandlerFunc func(...)), channel/map/slice types, etc.
	// Without this, those declarations were silently dropped from the
	// symbol table and became invisible to query/node/public/usages.
	KindType SymbolKind = "type"
)

type SymbolNode

type SymbolNode struct {
	ID               string            `json:"id"`
	Kind             SymbolKind        `json:"kind"`
	Name             string            `json:"name"`
	Receiver         string            `json:"receiver,omitempty"`
	PackageName      string            `json:"package_name"`
	File             string            `json:"file"`
	Line             int               `json:"line"`
	EndLine          int               `json:"end_line"`
	Doc              string            `json:"doc,omitempty"`
	Signature        string            `json:"signature,omitempty"`
	MethodSignature  string            `json:"method_signature,omitempty"`
	InterfaceMethods map[string]string `json:"interface_methods,omitempty"`
	StructFields     []StructField     `json:"struct_fields,omitempty"`
	EmbeddedStructs  []string          `json:"embedded_structs,omitempty"`
	Arity            int               `json:"arity,omitempty"`
}

SymbolNode represents a named symbol (function, method, struct, interface).

type TestEdge

type TestEdge struct {
	TestFunc string `json:"test_func"`
	Target   string `json:"target"` // callee name that looks like a production symbol
	File     string `json:"file"`
	Line     int    `json:"line"`
}

TestEdge links a *testing.T test function to the symbols it exercises.
