  --checkSecurity     Scan for security vulnerabilities
  --scope=<type>      Dependency scope: all|dependencies|devDependencies|peerDependencies
  --includeDev        Include devDependencies in analysis
  --cacheDir=<path>   Cache directory for incremental analysis
  --pretty            Pretty-print JSON output

Report Generation

Generate Multiple Report Formats

# Generate all report formats from analysis results
node scripts/generate-report.js analysis-result.json ./reports

# Available formats:
# - Markdown report (DEPENDENCY_ANALYSIS_REPORT.md)
# - JSON summary (DEPENDENCY_ANALYSIS_SUMMARY.json)
# - CSV issues (DEPENDENCY_ANALYSIS_ISSUES.csv)
# - TeamCity report (TEAMCITY_REPORT.txt)
# - GitHub Actions report (GITHUB_ACTIONS_REPORT.json)

Integration Examples

GitHub Actions Workflow

- name: Analyze Dependencies
  run: |
    node scripts/enhanced-analyzer.js . \
      --generateFixScript \
      --checkSecurity \
      --checkOutdated

- name: Upload Analysis Report
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
  with:
    name: dependency-analysis
    path: DEPENDENCY_ANALYSIS_REPORT.md

TeamCity Integration

# Generate TeamCity-compatible report
node scripts/enhanced-analyzer.js . --checkSecurity
# TeamCity report automatically includes build statistics and problems

Advanced Usage Patterns

Custom Configuration

const analyzer = new EnhancedDependencyAnalyzer('/path/to/project', {
  parallel: true,
  incremental: true,
  generateFixScript: true,
  checkSecurity: true,
  maxDepth: 10,
  cacheDir: '.dependency-cache',
  excludePatterns: ['docs/**', 'examples/**']
});

const result = await analyzer.analyze();

Batch Project Analysis

# Analyze multiple projects
for project in project1 project2 project3; do
  node scripts/enhanced-analyzer.js $project \
    --generateFixScript
done

Framework Support

The enhanced analyzer provides deep support for:

• React: Hooks, components, lazy loading
• Vue: SFC, script setup, async components
• Angular: Modules, services, lazy routes
• Next.js: Dynamic imports, API routes
• Nuxt.js: Auto-imports, composables
• Svelte: Components, stores
• Build Tools: Webpack, Vite, Rollup, esbuild

Performance Optimization

• Parallel Analysis: Processes files concurrently for large projects
• Smart Caching: Incremental analysis avoids re-scanning unchanged files
• Batch Operations: Groups npm commands for efficiency
• Memory Efficient: Streaming analysis for large codebases
• Progress Tracking: Real-time analysis progress
