The latest version of monocart-coverage-reports shipped with builtin Codacy native coverage reporter. See the release notes: https://github.com/cenfun/monocart-coverage-reports/releases/tag/2.8.7
In one project I am using the reporter and I am uploading the report via the api endpoint. Here is the script: https://github.com/tstyche/tstyche/blob/main/scripts/upload-coverage.js
All works fine. Only problem is that I have to copy the script to each of my projects. Or I could publish it as an npm
package or GitHub Action. Actually codacy-coverage-reporter
can do this job (and already is doing it internally!). So that feels like unnecessary duplication.
Do you consider making it possible to upload Codacy native coverage reports?
This is a feature request. Would it be possible to allow uploading Codacy native coverage report file directly instead of parsing it from
lcov
or similar? (That would be JSON file withCoverageReportFile
or similar object.)Real world use case
monocart-coverage-reports
is a new tool which generates coverage reports for JavaScript. It processes native V8 reports directly instead of converting them to Istanbul or so. They create coverage data object for each file, withlines
map of the following shape:This means that
lcov
is a redundant intermediate format and it would be trivial to provide native coverage report file for Codacy. Which means increase of performance and precision.Example
Codecov supports uploading reports in their native format: https://docs.codecov.com/docs/codecov-custom-coverage-format. And here is how
monocart
generates it: https://github.com/cenfun/monocart-coverage-reports/blob/5dbff72f1cc4e41d6d77f01e7ac54058ce92aa01/lib/generate.js#L263-L283That’s straight forward solution. Much more simple than encoding and decoding
lcov
.
