The new --no-generation option for the parse/analyze commands is nice in that it tells you why the command failed:
❯ phylum parse -t cargo --no-generation ./Cargo.toml
❗ Error: could not parse lockfile: ./Cargo.toml
Caused by:
Parsing "./Cargo.toml" requires lockfile generation, but it was disabled through the CLI
❯ echo $?
1
It would be even nicer if the exit code was unique instead of 1 like it is for other parse failures. That way it would be possible, when iterating over a range of dependency files, to recognize the --no-generation situation and skip over the manifests while allowing lockfiles to continue.
