Comment Removal

Repomix can automatically remove comments from your codebase when generating the output file. This can help reduce noise and focus on the actual code.

Usage

To enable comment removal, set the removeComments option to true in your repomix.config.json:

{
  "output": {
    "removeComments": true
  }
}

Supported Languages

Repomix supports comment removal for a wide range of programming languages, including:

• JavaScript/TypeScript (//, /* */)
• Python (#, """, ''')
• Java (//, /* */)
• C/C++ (//, /* */)
• HTML (<!-- -->)
• CSS (/* */)
• And many more...

Example

Given the following JavaScript code:

// This is a single-line comment
function test() {
  /* This is a
     multi-line comment */
  return true;
}

With comment removal enabled, the output will be:

function test() {
  return true;
}

Notes

• Comment removal is performed before other processing steps, such as line number addition.
• Some comments, such as JSDoc comments, may be preserved depending on the language and context.
