## About

I wanted reports from CppCheck to appear in GitLab Merge Requests as [Code
Quality reports](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/merge_requests/code_quality.html#implementing-a-custom-tool), 
which is a JSON file defined by the Code Climate team/service.

That's all this does: convert CppCheck XML to Code Climate JSON.

### Usage

CppCheck already has a script to convert its XML report to HTML for easy
human reading. See "Chapter 11 HTML Report" in the [CppCheck Manual v?.?](http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net/manual.pdf)

This script follows that example and provides similar command-line options. So
usage is as follows:

```bash
# Generate CppCheck report as XML
cppcheck --xml --enable=warning,style,performance ./my_src_dir/ 2> cppcheck_out.xml
# Convert to a Code Climate JSON report
python3 -m cppcheck-codequality --input-file=cppcheck_out.xml --output-file=cppcheck.json
```

Now, in your GitLab CI script, [upload this file](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/pipelines/job_artifacts.html#artifactsreportscodequality) 
as a Code Quality report.

```yaml
my-code-quality:
  script:
    - [...]
  artifacts:
    reports:
      codequality: cppcheck.json
```
