Violation Comments Action

This is a GitHub action that can decorate repository (pull requests and code scanning) with static code analysis.

This might work for very simple use cases. Using the command line tool, in combination with github/codeql-action/upload-sarif, directly in a shell step is probably best in most cases. See how that is done in action.yml.

It uses Violations Command Line . If you want a more advanced use case, perhaps you should use that command line tool in your action.

Usage

Example:

- name: Violation Comments Action
  uses: tomasbjerre/violation-comments-action@master
  with:
    parser: FINDBUGS
    regexp: '.*spotbugs/main\.xml$'

Also example here.

A number of parsers have been implemented. Some parsers can parse output from several reporters.
