📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Activate a Tree-sitter–based C analyzer (CAnalyzer), enable discovery of .c/.h sources, and convert C analyzer tests to unit-level AST checks. The analyzer extracts functions, structs, includes, and basic symbols, and integrates with the existing analysis second-pass flow using NullLanguageServer placeholders.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
C Analyzer Implementation
api/analyzers/c/analyzer.py
New active CAnalyzer class using Tree-sitter Language: entity labeling/naming, docstring extraction from preceding comment, symbol population (call, parameters, return_type), simplified dependency handling, resolution helpers, and get_include_paths. Removed prior multi-pass call-graph helpers.
Analyzer Registration / Source discovery
api/analyzers/source_analyzer.py
Registers CAnalyzer for .c/.h, adds *.c/*.h to discovery, and creates NullLanguageServer placeholders in second pass for C files while preserving skip behavior for NullLanguageServer.
Tests — C analyzer
tests/test_c_analyzer.py
Rewrote test to exercise CAnalyzer with in-memory File/Entity: asserts entity types, names, labels, docstrings, include extraction, dependency check, resolve_path, symbol presence, and error cases for unknown keys. Removed Graph-based integration assertions.
Test fixtures
tests/source_files/c/src.c
Sample C file updated to include "myheader.h" and <stdio.h> and a block comment above add for docstring testing.
Tests — housekeeping
tests/...
Removed unused filesystem path construction and adjusted test imports/structure to unit-style assertions.

🐰 I nibble the AST with whiskers bright,

I find the funcs and headers hidden in light.
A hop through comments, includes in a row,
Calls and types i’v gathered — watch them grow.
Hooray — the C-forest ready to show!

Pull request overview

Adds C #include directive handling intended to create INCLUDES edges between files in the graph, along with a unit test update to validate the relationship.

Changes:

  • Replaced the (previously commented) C analyzer implementation with a concrete analyzer that attempts to parse C AST and create graph nodes/edges.
  • Added process_include_directive and wired it into the C analyzer “first pass”.
  • Updated tests/test_c_analyzer.py to assert INCLUDES edges for an included header.

Parse first, then construct File(path, tree) from bytes.

File is created before the tree exists, and f is typed as io.TextIOWrapper, so f.read() returns str. Line 402 then always falls into the exception path because str.decode() does not exist, which wipes every extracted function body.

- Around line 341-357: The code creates a synthetic File node from the raw
include text (using os.path.dirname(normalized_path)) instead of resolving the
include relative to the including file; change the logic to first resolve the
include against the including file's directory (e.g. resolved =
Path(parent_of_including_file) / normalized_path), then check the graph for an
existing File entity for that resolved path and reuse it (lookup via whatever
graph method exists, e.g. graph.get_file_by_path/find_file), and only create a
new File and call graph.add_file(File(...)) if no real entity is found; update
references to use included_file = existing_or_new_file so INCLUDES point to the
actual analyzed header rather than a top-level synthetic node.
- Around line 408-419: first_pass() and second_pass() incorrectly call
query.captures() on a Query (which doesn't exist) and treat the result as a
tuple; replace those calls with the existing helper or a QueryCursor: use
self._captures(tree, query) (the inherited helper that returns a dict keyed by
capture name) when invoking C_LANGUAGE.query("(function_definition) `@function`")
and iterate captures['function'] to call process_function_definition(file, node,
path, graph, source_code); in second_pass() also remove any indexing like [0] on
capture results and instead access the dict entries returned by _captures() or
use a QueryCursor created from the Query and call
cursor.captures(tree.root_node) before processing nodes.

In `@tests/test_c_analyzer.py`:
- Line 24: The test calls analyzer.analyze(path, g) but SourceAnalyzer does not
implement analyze(); either add a public analyze(self, path, g) wrapper on
SourceAnalyzer that delegates to the appropriate existing method (for example
call analyze_local_folder(path, g) or analyze_sources(path, g) based on input)
or update the test to call an existing method such as analyze_local_folder(path,
g); additionally ensure the analyzers dispatch map enables CAnalyzer by
uncommenting the ".c" and ".h" entries in the analyzers dict so C files are
actually handled when the wrapper or chosen method delegates to CAnalyzer.

This PR has been substantially rewritten to address all 17 review comments. The original implementation bypassed the AbstractAnalyzer interface entirely (used non-existent Function/Struct types, missing Graph.add_function/add_struct methods, wrong File constructor, text/bytes confusion, etc.).

What changed:

  1. Complete rewrite of CAnalyzer: Now properly extends AbstractAnalyzer with super().__init__() and implements all required abstract methods (get_entity_label, get_entity_name, get_entity_docstring, get_entity_types, add_symbols, is_dependency, resolve_path, resolve_type, resolve_method, resolve_symbol, add_dependencies).

  2. Include directive support: Added get_include_paths() helper method for extracting #include paths from parsed C files using tree-sitter queries via self._captures().

  3. source_analyzer.py integration: Uncommented the C analyzer import, added .c/.h to the analyzers dict, added NullLanguageServer for C/H extensions in the second pass, and added .c/.h to the file globbing in analyze_sources().

  4. Test rewrite: Rewrote test_c_analyzer.py as standalone unit tests that don't require FalkorDB. Tests cover entity extraction (functions, structs), labels, call symbols, include extraction, and is_dependency. Added #include directives to the test fixture src.c.

  5. Removed dead code: Removed all the old custom process_* methods, the utils import, and Function/Struct type usage.

All 8 tests pass, lint is clean.

Don't erase whether an include was quoted or system.

strip('"<>') collapses #include "foo.h" and #include <foo.h> into the same foo.h token. That removes the information the graph layer needs to resolve quoted includes relative to the current file and to avoid binding system headers to an unrelated project header with the same basename. Return the normalized path together with the include kind, or keep the original node type.

The new tests still don't cover include relationships end to end.

This only checks raw extraction from CAnalyzer. It will still pass when SourceAnalyzer never creates any file-to-file include edge, so the PR’s main behavior remains untested. Please add one integration test that runs through SourceAnalyzer and asserts the include relationship for this fixture.

(e.g., ("foo.h", "quote") or ("foo.h", "system")) or by returning the original
capture node type alongside the path; adjust the captures handling in
get_include_paths and consumers to build includes as tuples (path, kind) or

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Anonymous structs will crash analysis of valid C code.

struct_specifier is legal without a name, but this branch raises ValueError in that case. Because SourceAnalyzer.create_hierarchy() does not catch it, a file containing struct { ... } value; will abort the whole analysis. Skip unnamed structs or synthesize a stable anonymous name instead of throwing.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

C includes are discovered, but never materialized into graph edges.

Registering .c/.h here is not enough for the feature: neither pass calls CAnalyzer.get_include_paths(), and the C/header branch is skipped behind NullLanguageServer, so the graph still ends up with no file-to-file include relationship at all. Add a dedicated non-LSP include pass after all File nodes are registered and connect each source file to the resolved header file there.

Based on learnings, "Analyzer orchestration should be centralized in api/analyzers/source_analyzer.py".

Also applies to: 155-158, 191-191

These tests pass even if the target entity disappears.

test_function_label, test_struct_label, and test_call_symbols only assert inside the loop. If "add", "exp", or "main" stops being extracted, each test exits without any failure and still passes.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
The previous implementation bypassed the AbstractAnalyzer interface entirely,
using non-existent types (Function, Struct), missing methods (graph.add_function,
graph.add_struct), wrong File constructor args, and text/bytes confusion.

This rewrite:
- Properly extends AbstractAnalyzer with super().__init__()
- Implements all required abstract methods (get_entity_label, get_entity_name,
  get_entity_docstring, get_entity_types, add_symbols, etc.)
- Uses self._captures() for correct QueryCursor-based tree-sitter queries
- Adds get_include_paths() helper for #include directive extraction
- Enables C/H support in source_analyzer.py (uncommented import, added to
  analyzers dict, LSP setup, and file globbing)
- Rewrites test_c_analyzer.py as standalone unit tests (no DB required)
- Adds #include directives to test fixture (src.c)

63-80: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Tests pass silently if target entity is missing.

test_function_label, test_struct_label, and test_call_symbols only assert inside the loop. If the target entity ("add", "exp", or "main") isn't extracted, these tests exit without failure. This was noted in a previous review.

The test_docstring_extraction and test_no_docstring methods correctly use the return + self.fail() pattern — apply the same here:

30-35: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Anonymous structs will crash the analysis pipeline.

This was flagged in a previous review and remains unaddressed. C allows anonymous structs (e.g., struct { int x; } value;), and the current code raises ValueError when name_node is missing. Since SourceAnalyzer.create_hierarchy() doesn't catch this exception, files containing anonymous structs will abort the entire analysis.

Consider returning a synthesized name or skipping unnamed structs:

🛡️ Proposed fix: synthesize a stable anonymous name
     def get_entity_name(self, node: Node) -> str:
         if node.type == 'struct_specifier':
             name_node = node.child_by_field_name('name')
             if name_node:
                 return name_node.text.decode('utf-8')
-            raise ValueError("Struct has no name")
+            # Anonymous struct - synthesize stable name from position
+            return f"<anon_struct_{node.start_byte}>"

100-106: Consider returning an empty list instead of raising for unknown keys.

The resolve_symbol method raises ValueError for unknown keys, but the call site in SourceAnalyzer.second_pass() (context snippet 2) has no exception handling. While add_symbols currently only adds the three known keys, a future change adding new symbol types would crash the entire pipeline.

Returning an empty list is a safer fallback that matches how other analyzers handle unknown cases:

♻️ Defensive fallback
     def resolve_symbol(self, files: dict[Path, File], lsp: SyncLanguageServer, file_path: Path, path: Path, key: str, symbol: Node) -> list[Entity]:
         if key in ["parameters", "return_type"]:
             return self.resolve_type(files, lsp, file_path, path, symbol)
         elif key in ["call"]:
