Andrey VasnetsovandClaude Fable 5.1 29e21bea96 callgraph: accept struct/trait/enum/type/const roots (#10543)
rust-analyzer's call hierarchy is function-only, so a type root is walked
via find-references instead: each mention is attributed to its enclosing
document symbol (function, type definition, or impl block's self type),
and a type's callees are its methods. Type nodes are square; new edge
kinds `ref` and `member` get their own labels and legend entries.

callgraph

Interactive call-graph reports for one function or type of the Qdrant workspace, viewable in a browser: pan/zoom graph, per-node docs and source snippets, exact call sites, GitHub/editor links.

callgraph report

tools/callgraph/callgraph.py read_bytes_async                        # by name
tools/callgraph/callgraph.py universal_io::traits::read_bytes_async  # :: segments disambiguate
tools/callgraph/callgraph.py lib/common/common/src/universal_io/traits/read.rs:113
tools/callgraph/callgraph.py common::universal_io::traits::append::UniversalAppendFs  # trait/struct/enum/type/const

Prints a file://…/target/callgraph/<fn>.html link when done. Requires rust-analyzer and graphviz dot on PATH; no Python dependencies.

How it works

  • rust-analyzer's call hierarchy over LSP provides resolved (not textual) caller/callee edges; both directions are collected in one run.
  • Trait declarations and their impls are bridged via goto-implementation / goto-declaration, so a walk doesn't dead-end when a call dispatches through a trait (dashed edges in the graph).
  • The call hierarchy is function-only, so a struct/trait root is walked via find-references instead: each mention is attributed to its enclosing function, or — for mentions in type definitions and impl headers — to the enclosing type / the impl block's self type (square nodes, teal edges). A type's "callees" are its methods (trait body + impl blocks, dotted edges).
  • Test code is excluded for real: rust-analyzer runs with cfg(test) off, and tests/, benches/, examples/ targets are filtered by path.
  • Layout by graphviz at generation time; the report itself is one self-contained HTML file with no external resources.

Options

  • --depth N — call hops from the root (default 4)
  • --max-nodes N — per-view node cap (default 250)
  • --out PATH — output HTML path

Performance note

Each run cold-starts rust-analyzer, which re-indexes the workspace (~3 min). If runs become frequent, the upgrade path is a --serve mode that keeps one rust-analyzer instance alive between reports.
