Brux Advanced Features

Master advanced configurations, optimizations, and custom workflows with Brux.

Introduction to Brux

Brux is Syntax's powerful code analysis engine, enabling real-time syntax validation, pattern matching, and language-specific optimizations. This guide dives into advanced configurations, integrations, and best practices for complex projects.

Advanced Configuration

Customize Brux's behavior with advanced JSON/JSON5 configuration files. Enable pattern-matching rules, create language-specific presets, and implement custom validation logic using BruxScript.

Performance Optimization

Learn caching strategies, parallel processing techniques, and memory-efficient parsing methods. Use Brux's profiling tools to identify bottlenecks and generate optimization reports.

Plugin Development

Write custom validation rules and syntax extensions using our BruxScript API. Package and share your plugins through the Syntax Plugin Registry.

Multi-Language Workflows

Configure Brux to handle polyglot projects with automatic language detection and context-aware validation across Python, JavaScript, C++, and more.

CI/CD Integration

Automate Brux validation as part of your CI pipeline. Learn to generate reports, configure thresholds, and integrate with Jira, GitHub, and other platforms.

Security Configs

Configure Brux to identify potential security vulnerabilities, enforce code security standards, and audit external library usage with real-time threat detection.

Sample Configuration


{
  "brux": {
    "general": {
      "languages": ["python", "javascript", "cpp"],
      "max_concurrent_tasks": 8,
      "cache_dir": "~/.brux-cache",
      "validation_profile": "strict"
    },
    "security": {
      "enabled": true,
      "excluded_patterns": [
        "temp_.*",
        "test_.*"
      ],
      "threshold": 85
    },
    "custom_rules": [
      {
        "pattern": ".*_deprecated$",
        "action": "warn"
      },
      {
        "pattern": "^experimental_.+",
        "action": "error"
      }
    ]
  }
}

                

This configuration enables Brux to validate Python, JavaScript, and C++ files with security checks. It sets cache preferences, rule patterns, and security thresholds for advanced users.
