Can you add support for more languages?

[gnu-user]

Love your project, very interesting read! Would it be possible for you to add support for additional languages such as Lisp, SQL, Clojure, Rust, etc?

Thanks!

[mbStavola]

Kotlin and Rust would be cool!

[dooglio]

How about CMake?

[chrisetheridge]

Clojure / ClojureScript would be awesome!

[anvaka]

Absolutely!

I added sql (all files with .sql extension): https://anvaka.github.io/common-words/#?lang=sql
And rust (all files with .rs extension): https://anvaka.github.io/common-words/#?lang=rust

What would be the most accurate file extension for Clojure/Lisp/Kotlin/CMake?

[quangdatv]

How about Swift and Obj-C?

[chrisetheridge]

Clojure / ClojureScript files all use the extension of .clj and .cljs respectively.

[rmflight]

How about .R and .r for the R language??

[gnu-user]

@anvaka And if you could also add Common Lisp while you're adding Clojure I would really appreciate it! The extensions for Common Lisp are most frequently .lisp or .lsp .

[anvaka]

@rmflight I had R before. Unfortunately visualizations were not usable for R - they were made mostly from numbers. That's because I can only differentiate languages by file extension. As it turned out .r was also used for resource files, which looked mostly like an assembly language (thus the numbers)

[anvaka]

Added:

• Lisp
• Clojure
• Kotlin
• CMake
• Swift

Please let me know if something doesn't make sense or is missing

[dooglio]

For CMake, I love that you made it in the shape of the Kitware logo!

[gnu-user]

Thanks @anvaka this looks great! While on functional languages you could also try adding Haskell, the file extension most commonly used is .hs or .lhs also in terms of rendering the word cloud Haskell has a great logo.

You can find a high resolution version of the logo at the following URL: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1c/Haskell-Logo.svg/2000px-Haskell-Logo.svg.png

[derekbrown]

Requesting Elixir.

[anvaka]

Added both:

• Haskel (only .hs and .hsc extensions, as described by linguist).
• Elixir

[ZevEisenberg]

If you add Objective-C, keep in mind that .h is a header format shared across multiple languages, and .m is shared with Matlab (I think). You might need more advanced heuristics to figure out what language a file is. There may be some good language detection in cloc that you can use for inspiration.

[ForNeVeR]

That's very nice! Could you please add support for F#? .fs and .fsi are the extensions.

[anvaka]

@ZevEisenberg yes, unfortunately I don't have anything advanced yet. I guess one could use user defined function which would classify source code text more accurately...

For now I'm just considering .m and .mm as objective c/c++ code.

@ForNeVeR the same is true about .fs extension - I know Forth, GLSL, and Filterscript are using it. Please let me know if you see anything suspicious...

[joneshf]

This is great! Would you be up for adding PureScript (.purs) and elm (.elm)?

[anvaka]

Added

• Elm
• PureScript
• Pascal

[anvaka]

@rmflight I added R language. I used case sensitive .R extension and results seems better than for .r (which was mixed with resource files). Please let me know if something doesn't look right:

https://anvaka.github.io/common-words/#?lang=r

[anvaka]

Erlang is here

[rmflight]

@anvaka That actually looks like it is capturing the relevant semantics of the language! Thank you!

[bdkosher]

Awesome visualizer! I'd like to request the addition of Groovy (.groovy).

The logo is quite busy,

but there's a simplified version used as an icon for their console.

[anvaka]

@bdkosher here it is

[nadako]

How about Haxe (.hx)? :)
