input from stdin or a file

[windrg]

Describe the bug In Usage, I cannot find a way to input from STDIN or a file - ie build.log

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Expected behavior Other tools provides a way to do this. But Bear doesn’t seem to have.

Environment:

• OS name: Ubuntu
• OS version: 20.04
• OS architecture: x86_64
• Bear version:
• Bear install method: apt Additional context
• Can you give us a reference to the project that you are running against this tool? [e.g. No if it's a close source project, but in case of an open source project a link to the sources could be nice.]

  compiledb can get inputs from stdin or a file

• What build tools this project is using? [e.g. GNU make wtih configure script]

  make

• What architecture you are trying to compile for? [e.g. cross compiling]

  ARM - cross compiling

• Could you attach build logs? If you can re-run the command which failed (e.g. bear -- make) with extra verbose log switches (e.g. bear --verbose -- make) and send the output of it, that would help a lot.

  No, I can’t. But Bear works when I issue like this $bear make …. Then it generates a compile_commands.json very well as I expected.

Bear does not process build logs, therefore it won't be a thing.

Bear runs the build and intercepts the process executions. The program intercept is which generates the event log file about the intercepted process execution. And citnames is another tool, which reads this event log file and creates the compilation database.
