Correct me if I'm wrong, KtLint does not have a baseline file you could use the wrapper

detekt-formatting

. However auto correcting formatting issue cannot be combined with the baseline ... its all or nothing

Has there been any more work done along the lines of type resolution? Is there a branch with it? (Attempting to do something similar to the PR , but I'm having issues https://github.com/arturbosch/detekt/pull/485/files#diff-b891a4f3964171c1075597dbac3d82d7R22)

I think Lint uses UAST nowadays, no? It was a massive amount of work for them to migrate to it tho as far as I remember

Lint works on UAST - yes. I’d rewrite the detekt rules to leverage UAST. We get so many things for free. Gradle Integration / Baseline / nice HTML reports / XML reports / quickfixes / IDE integration / inspection of any file type and so many more things Additionally, Lint does work on Kotlin only projects - https://github.com/vanniktech/kotlin-on-code-quality-tools/tree/master/custom-android-lint-rules - they have their own plugin for that which can be applied to kotlin/java only modules and the same lint rules can be used

Hello!

Happy to add it the answer to the docs/migration guidelines if you think it’s worth it

Is it possible to import a detekt-config.yml into IntelliJ/Android Studio code style settings in some way?

@Mike thank you, i was looking on the maven repo but i have not paid attention to the version number. Adding jcenter as buildScript dependency works fine for me, but i guess its a bit misleading that the official example does not work So I opened an issue https://github.com/arturbosch/detekt/issues/1568

i'm seeing this warning even though I don't have

failFast

set in my detekt-config.yml (in RC14 run via maven antrun plugin or via cli manually):

Using deprecated property 'failFast' in the yaml config. Please migrate to the new '--fail-fast' cli-flag or 'failFast' detekt extension property.

I am using

toolVersion = "1.0.0.RC9"

Is it possible to hide the output of detekt in terminal if it is all good? I would only like to see the errors.

Tried with -q and it didn't work

With regards to the 1.0: I know there was quite a big discussion about it and I did see the Roadmap. Is there any list of specific issues that need to be resolved? What do you think about adding a tag to those issues?

Hello everyone, how do I use a custom report output I've made, inside the

detekt

section of Gradle?

Hi, any detekt github samples with html report.

Are there alternatives to using the spread (

*

) operator when dynamically building a list to call a varargs method with? or is the detekt

SpreadOperator

rule just there to make sure there's awareness of the performance implications of doing so?

Hi. When I'm running

./gradlew detekt

I see this message: "Using deprecated property 'failFast' in the yaml config. Please migrate to the new '--fail-fast' cli-flag or 'failFast' detekt extension property." However, there is no failFast property declared in yaml config file. Using

1.0.0-RC14

.

Hey guys, does anyone knows how to integrate the detekt with the build process. In my case i want to break the build if detekt has found any code smell?

Hi, I am experiencing some trouble running Detekt on one of our Kotlin (JVM) projects through Gradle. I have it configured in Gradle/Groovy with a basic

detekt {
    toolVersion = "1.0.0-RC14"
    input = files("src/main/kotlin")
    filters = ".*/resources/.*,.*/build/.*"
}

I get loads of errors in the console, all with the following message:

Analyzing '[filename redacted]' led to an exception.
The original exception message was: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/gitlab/arturbosch/detekt/rules/LinesOfCodeKt$tokenSequence$1
Running detekt '1.0.0-RC14' on Java '1.8.0_151-b12' on OS 'Mac OS X'.

(am running Gradle 5.4.1) What I’ve tried - Building and running Detekt via the CLI - this works fine, and gives me a report (I ran it on the same project that fails via the Gradle). - Switching to version 1.0.0-RC13 via Gradle yields the same errors as with RC14 - Clearing out the gradle caches and

gradle clean

does not seem to have any effect - (edit) Running the gradle task inside a Docker container using

gradle@latest

image doesn’t help Ideally, I want it to be run via Gradle - does anyone have any pointers as to what may the cause of this issue, or perhaps how I can fix it?

After #kotliners release! Grab RC15 while its hot - https://bintray.com/arturbosch/code-analysis/detekt/1.0.0-RC15 Happy to take any regressions! Changelog: https://arturbosch.github.io/detekt/changelog-rc.html#rc15 Migration from test-pattern -> https://arturbosch.github.io/detekt/howto-migratetestpattern.html Cli binary -> https://github.com/arturbosch/detekt/releases/tag/1.0.0-RC15

Is there any way to configure

detekt

to mark the unused methods as a code smell?

What does

McCabe complexity

means in Complexity Report?

Does Detekt analyze Java sources too, or just Kotlin? I’m looking to add static analysis to a mixed Java/Kotlin Android project, and would ideally have one tool for analyzing both

Does detekt find code duplication?

Upgrading a project from RC14 to RC16 (although RC15 exhibits same issue). Groovy Gradle DSL. Multi-module project where main has code as well as subprojects. Add Detekt plugin in

allprojects

configuration. When it runs, it succeeds on all projects BUT then Detekt fails with this error: Execution failed for task ':detekt'.

/dev/cbttds/cbttdsshrd-service-base/cbttdsshrd-test/build/reports/detekt/main.xml does not exist

and using --stacktrace shows the following Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: /dev/cbttds/cbttdsshrd-service-base/cbttdsshrd-test/build/reports/detekt/main.xml does not exist at io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt.output.XmlReportConsolidationKt.readContent(XmlReportConsolidation.kt:44) at io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt.output.XmlReportConsolidationKt.mergeXmlReports(XmlReportConsolidation.kt:20) Is this an issue specific to multi-module? It seems like Detekt is attempting to consolidate reports or something similar, but I'm not seeing anything in change log about this. Or is this a Gradle task taking place? Any hints or assistance greatly appreciated.

Hi there! Having issue with upgrading from RC14 to RC16. I’m using ktlint wapper and custom ruleset. After upg version, detekt task started to fail with

Cannot set value for plugins on detekt task and apply detektPlugins configuration at the same time.

message. My detekt config block is in attached snippet. Anyone faced that error?

ah! found the fix: https://github.com/arturbosch/detekt/commit/0cd1374ecd3e4ede42f7f4971689d5e597040497 Guess I'll wait for the next release 🙂

Congrats on the 1.0 release! 🎉 Is there a changelog for 1.0?

what am I missing? how can I have a centralized baseline for the project?

Is there a way to enforce indent tabs instead of spaces? EDIT --- So far my research on the matter shows that there is no way to use tabs with either detekt or ktlint. I get the desire to avoid indent-wars, but this effectively prevents teams with existing code bases and style guides based on tabs to use either detekt or ktlint, or forces them to disable all the relevant rule(set)s and write their own. Plainly that sucks 😞
