meta-codechecker

A Layer to support CodeChecker as a frontent to clang static analysis

usage

This layer exposes a bbclass and the recipes needed to support inclusion of the tooling. Note that meta-clang is a requirement.

In a recipe enable:

To enable the layer within a single recipe, do add

inherit codechecker
CODECHECKER_ENABLED = "1"

In conf/local.conf

INHERIT += "codechecker"
CODECHECKER_ENABLED = "1"

options:

To generate a static HTML site as report do add:

CODECHECKER_REPORT_HTML = "1"

To generate a codeclimate compatible report do add:

CODECHECKER_REPORT_CODECLIMATE = "1"

The output will be in tmp/deploy/CodeChecker/*

To upload the results to the CodeChecker webserver (e.g. docker container) add:

CODECHECKER_REPORT_STORE = "1"
CODECHECKER_REPORT_HOST = "http://yourcodecheckerhost:8001/"
CODECHECKER_REPORT_ENDPOINT = "myproductname"
# ENDPOINT cannot have '.' or '+' or ' '  in the name !
#
# optionally have the endpoint created
#CODECHECKER_REPORT_ENDPOINT_CREATE = "1"

Note: The URL of the product to store the results for, in the format of 'http[s]://]host:port/'. (default: localhost:8001/Default)

Note: this was tested against the docker container docker pull codechecker/codechecker-web:6.15.2

output location

The output will be in:
