Architecture History
Track and visualize changes in your codebase's structure over time, akin to a version control system for your project's architecture.
Navigate Through Architectural Changes
Review how your codebase's structure has evolved across different commits. Architecture History allows developers to track and visualize changes in the Code Manifest over time, providing a comprehensive view of your project's architectural evolution.
Compare Versions
Identify additions, deletions, or modifications in classes, functions, and their relationships between various points in time. This feature helps you understand the impact of changes and make informed decisions about future architectural modifications.
Git Integration
By integrating with Git, NanoAPI enables you to track architectural changes alongside your code changes. This integration provides a seamless experience for developers who want to understand how their codebase has evolved over time.
Benefits of Architecture History
Architecture History provides valuable insights into the development trajectory of your project, aiding in refactoring decisions and ensuring consistency in architectural design:
- •Architectural Accountability: Track who made architectural changes and when, providing accountability and context for decision-making.
- •Regression Prevention: Identify when architectural regressions were introduced, making it easier to revert problematic changes.
- •Knowledge Preservation: Maintain a historical record of architectural decisions, which is invaluable for onboarding new team members and preserving institutional knowledge.
- •Trend Analysis: Observe patterns in architectural evolution over time, helping teams make data-driven decisions about future development.
Integration with Other Features
By leveraging the Code Manifest, Symbol Extraction, and Architecture History features of NanoAPI, developers can effectively transform and manage their applications, promoting a more modular, scalable, and maintainable architecture.
Code Manifest Integration
Architecture History builds upon the Code Manifest, tracking changes to the manifest over time. This integration provides a comprehensive view of how your codebase's structure has evolved.
Symbol Extraction Tracking
Track how symbols have been extracted and refactored over time, providing insights into the evolution of your microservices architecture.
Visualization Tools
Visualize architectural changes over time using NanoAPI's powerful visualization tools. These visualizations make it easy to understand complex architectural transformations.
