Get analyzer statistics from CodeChecker storage using cli

[polskikh]

I need to get information about analyzer statistics (successful, failed). At the moment I can get this information only from metadata.json file, right?

But what if I want to get this information from storage using CLI? Because this information is stored and I can see it in UI.

Because I have cases when I need to get this information and pass it to another service (for example for dashboards). And I don't have CodeChecker artifacts (metadata.json)

What do you think about it?

(By all means, DO NOT RELY ON metadata.json, IT'S FORMAT OR CONTENTS! That is an internal artifact that is only used to carry CodeChecker-specific information (that is not the actual bug reports) between the "facades" of CodeChecker (log -> analyze -> parse/store).)

I've been out of the loop regarding CodeChecker, but if the web GUI really shows the number of failed files (it didn't back when I was around :slightly_smiling_face: ) then you could try obtaining a machine-readable JSON run information via CodeChecker cmd runs -o json --url [...].

@whisperity CodeChecker cmd runs -o json --url will return just this information:

{
    "REPORT_NAME": {
      "detectionStatusCount": {
      },
      "runDate": "2018-11-01 15:10:57.108259",
      "name": "REPORT_NAME",
      "versionTag": "TAG",
      "runCmd": "CodeChecker.py check -b make -o output_folder -j 10 --ctu",
      "runId": 49,
      "duration": 1521,
      "resultCount": 2089
    },
}

Ok, If I shouldn't read metadata.json, how can I get clangsa and clang-tidy stats? Search in stdout?

We use codechecker 6.7.1 as CLI and 6.8 as server

Analyzer statistics as a feature (https://github.com/Ericsson/codechecker/commit/b5b815b2a767dabb405e2ce4b195bb2166f66896) was introduced in release 6.8. Please update your CLI.

The getRunData function returns a RunDataList, in which each element contains an analyzer statistics data field:

The JSON output should show these fields.

If you don't request the JSON output, you also should see this value:

Hi @whisperity , it's awesome!

I think we can close this issue

Thanks for the help and your time! 🙂
