Measure file similarity in a many-to-many fashion

Overview

Mesi

Lint and Test codecov PyPI PyPI - Downloads License


Mesi is a tool to measure the similarity in a many-to-many fashion of long-form documents like Python source code or technical writing. The output can be useful in determining which of a collection of files are the most similar to each other.

Installation

Python 3.9+ and pipx are recommended, although Python 3.6+ and/or pip will also work.

pipx install mesi

If you'd like to test out Mesi before installing it, use the remote execution feature of pipx, which will temporarily download Mesi and run it in an isolated virtual environment.

pipx run mesi --help

Usage

For a directory structure that looks like:

lab-one
├── StudentOne
│   ├── pyproject.toml
│   ├── deliverables
│   │   └── python_program.py
│   └── README.md
├── StudentTwo
│   ├── pyproject.toml
│   ├── deliverables
│   │   └── python_program.py
│   └── README.md
│

where similarity should be measured between each student's deliverables/python_program.py file, run the command:

mesi lab-one/*/deliverables/python_program.py

A lower distance in the produced table equates to a higher degree of similarity.

See the help menu (mesi --help) for additional options and configuration.

Algorithms

There are many algorithms to choose from when comparing string similarity! Mesi implements all the algorithms provided by TextDistance. In general levenshtein is never a bad choice, which is why it is the default.

Bugs/Requests

Please use the GitHub issue tracker to submit bugs or request new features, options, or algorithms.

Dependencies

Mesi uses two primary dependencies for text similarity calculation: polyleven, and TextDistance. Polyleven is the default, as its singular implementation of Levenshtein distance can be faster in most situations. However, if a different edit distance algorithm is requested, TextDistance's implementations will be used.

    Mesi is a tool to check the similarity between many different files; this is its first release, with support for many basic features and lots of text similarity/distance algorithms. You can even try out Mesi without downloading it!

    pipx run mesi --help
    

    If you don't have pipx installed, you may need to install it, but that's something you should do anyways. :smile:
