Hello team, we’re using detekt-cli in our CI, and we have several custom rules that require a BindingContext, and it seems they are not ran when we use the cli tool. Here’s how we use it, is there something we need to add?

java -jar /usr/local/lib/detekt/detekt-cli-all.jar --config /path/to/detekt.yaml --plugins /path/to/custom_rules.jar

[Xavier F. Gouchet]

The custom rules are ran properly as we have some logs showing stating that the binding context is EMPTY and stating the rules won’t run

Hmm thanks indeed, I’ll look into that

Ok, follow up on this, I’m using gradle with a build.gradle.kts file in my project, and when ading some classpaths, I’m getting the following error 😕

TL;DR;

org.jetbrains.kotlin.resolve.lazy.NoDescriptorForDeclarationException: Descriptor wasn’t found for declaration SCRIPT

Any idea what the issue is here? There’s one issue in the github project but I don’t think it’s related
