6. Customized Reports
The reports, regardless of format, are organized using a set of preference files that can be used to customize the way tags are organized for convenience and are customizable. For the HTML report the preferences also affect the report appearance for the Features section Feature Groups and icons. For instance, you may choose to reorder some of them under a "Security" features group.
The preferences files are located in the application directory under /preferences. There are two of them. In addition to tag organization, you can configure if certain features should be counted for occurrences and even displayed in the report as detailed matches or not.
The preferences approach lets you customize the look and organization of the features with no programming so you can easy group them how you want in minutes.
Each feature group represents a bucket to associate like features in. Each feature includes a search pattern to locate related matches based on the tag name (See Rules/Tags), a hover display description and icon. Icon values are based on fontawesome. It's not necessary to use the entire tag name if it is distinct enough but you can.
To add a feature, simply locate a rule or tag that you would like to see that is not already shown in the report where desired and duplicate one of the existing entries. Or customize the layout by moving existing entries as needed.
All tags that include value of "Metric" are excluded automatically from the HTML "Features" report page even if they are defined in the tagreportgroups.json and as well as from the detailed matches since this keyword for tags is intended to represent characteristics worth counting but do not qualify as features. They will automatically appear in the Summary Tag Counters area of the HTML report or as tag counters in the other report formats.
