Tokei is a fast and accurate code analysis CLI tool and library, allowing you to easily and quickly see how many blank lines, comments, and lines of code are in your codebase. All releases and work on Tokei and tokei.rs (the free companion badge service) are funded by the community through GitHub Sponsors.
You can always download the latest version of tokei through GitHub Releases or Cargo. Tokei is also available through other package managers, though they may not always contain the latest release.
cargo install tokei
- Added
-n/--num-format=[commas, dots, plain, underscores]for adding separator formatting for numbers. - The total is now included in output formats such as JSON.
--no-ignorenow implies other ignore flags.- Added
--no-ignore-dotflag to ignore files such as.ignore. - Added single line comments to F*
- Updated various dependencies.
Tokei 12 comes with some of the biggest user facing changes since 1.0, now in the latest version tokei will now analyse and count multiple languages embedded in your source code as well as adding support for Jupyter Notebooks. Now for the first time is able to handle and display different languages contained in a single source file. This currently available for a limited set of languages, with plans to add more support for more in the future. The currently supported languages are;
Tokei will now analyse and report the source code contained in <script>,
<style>, and <template> tags in HTML and other similar languages. Tokei will
read the value of thetype attribute from the <script> tag and detects the
appropriate language based on its mime type or JavaScript if not present. Tokei
will do the same for <style> and <template> except reading the lang
attribute instead of type and defaulting to CSS and HTML each respectively.
Tokei will now read Jupyter Notebook files (.ipynb) and will read the source
code and markdown from Jupyter's JSON and output the analysed result.
Tokei will now detect any code blocks marked with specified source language and count each as their respective languages or as Markdown if not present or not found. Now you can easily see how many code examples are included in your documentation.
Tokei will now detect blocks of rustdoc documentation (e.g. //////!) and
parse them as markdown.
Tokei is now also capable of handling "verbatim" strings, which are strings that
do not accept escape sequences like \. Thanks to @NickHackman for providing
the implementation! This is initially supported for C++, C#, F#, and Rust.
To be able to show these new features, tokei's output has been changed to look like below. For brevity the CLI only displays one level deep in each language, however the library's parser is fully recursive and you can get access to the complete report using the library or by outputting the JSON format.

Thanks to some major internal refactoring, Tokei has received significant performance improvements, and is now one of the fastest code counters across any size of codebase. With Tokei 11 showing up to 40–60% faster results than tokei's previous version. To showcase the improvements I've highlighted benchmarks of counting five differently sized codebases. Redis (~220k lines), Rust (~16M lines), and the Unreal Engine (~37.5M lines). In every one of these benchmarks Tokei 11 performed the best by a noticeable margin.
All benchmarks were done on a 15-inch MacBook Pro, with a 2.7GHz Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3 RAM running macOS Catalina 10.15.3. Your mileage may vary, All benchmarks were done using hyperfine, using default settings for all programs.
Note This benchmark is not accurate due to tokei and loc both taking
less than 5ms to complete, there is a high degree of error between the times and
should mostly be considered equivalent. However it is included because it is
notable that scc takes nearly 3x as long to complete on smaller codebases
(~5k lines).

in a
.tokeirc/tokei.toml. Namelycolumnsto set the default column output,typesto filter your count to just a single set of languages, andtreat_doc_strings_as_commentswhich is a new option that allows you to specify whether to treat doc strings such as"""in Python as comments or code. The config files can be specified in two places, the current directory tokei is running in and your system configuration directory. The priority of options is as followsCLI > <current_directory> > <configuration_directory>. - Tokei is now available on Conda.
- Tokei's README has been translated to chinese.
LanguageTypenow implementsHash.- Tokei now batches it's console output, this should result in a small performance boost.
- There is now a
--columnsargument for manually setting tokei's output width. - The
--sortargument is now case-insensitive. - Tokei will now mark languages who's files failed to parse correctly as potentially inaccurate.
- Due to a bug in trust-ci
x86_64-unknown-netbsdversions are will not be available in GitHub releases. (You will still be able to install from source.) - Due to toml-rs's lacking enum support the TOML output option has been disabled.
