Output to Json, XML #552

Closed yumoraby closed 3 years ago

yumoraby commented 3 years ago

With CSV the data exported from the tool, is difficult to maniuplate or process in other tooling without creating a custom import mapping. Outputting to Json or XML will allow to retain and preserve schema and make it easy to port to other systems.

Describe the solution you'd like Ability to export output of the tool in Json/XML

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently the output has to be parsed using the defined schema, any changes in the toolset may not get picked up in the external parser which hosts the schema outside the source content.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

@jansenbe, as @yumoraby mentioned having the contents in JSON/XML will definitely help a lot.

fastlaneb commented 3 years ago

Yes, massaging CSVs into the format you want is a project unto itself. I would love to see JSON! I third this request @jansenbe @yumoraby @vgurusa

jansenbe commented 3 years ago

Good idea, but given my current workload I'm considering it low priority for now. The scanner is open source, I'm not against accepting a community PR that provides this capability.

yumoraby commented 3 years ago

@jansenbe I'll discuss this with my team tomorrow, to see who can help incorporate this feature into the toolset.
