So, this one is quite simple, let say, you want to count the lines of code you have inside a project, from a file or a whole directory, how are you going to do it ?

HOW

This is done with a simple bash function

loc(){
    echo -ne "Lines of Code : ";
    if [ -n "$1" ]; then
        find . -wholename $1 | xargs wc -l;
    else
        find . -name '*' -type f | xargs cat | wc -l;
    fi
}

Basically, it will find files depending on your input and use wc to count lines of your code.

You can then add this in your ~/.bashrc and source before use it or save it in separate shell file that you can call and use when you want !
