Philipp Ottlinger commented on RAT-576:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for your interest in RAT and your report - I assume (as the gradle 
plugin is not official part of Creadur yet) that Gradle does not report all of 
the stuff that were improved in RAT0.18.

A Maven run allows setting  a verbose flag:
./mvnw apache-rat:check -Drat.verbose=true
which increases the output:

[INFO] Excluding patterns: **/log*.xml, **/*.log, .github/**, 
src/main/resources, *.md, **/.checkstyle/**/*, **/out*/**, **/*.md, 
**/dependency-reduced-pom.xml, **/.gitignore, **/docs/**/*, src/test/resources, 
.travis.yml, **/site*/**, .codacy.yml, .editorconfig
[INFO] Including patterns: 
[INFO] Excluding IDEA collection.

[INFO] Excluding STANDARD_SCMS collection.

[INFO] Processing exclude file from STANDARD_SCMS.
[INFO] RAT summary:
[INFO]   Approved:  11
[INFO]   Archives:  0
[INFO]   Binaries:  2
[INFO]   Document types:  4
[INFO]   Ignored:  59
[INFO]   License categories:  1
[INFO]   License names:  1
[INFO]   Notices:  1
[INFO]   Standards:  11
[INFO]   Unapproved:  0
[INFO]   Unknown:  0
[INFO] No issues found.

Apart from that the report is written and contains a much more detailed view of 
the scan, e.g.:
-----------------------------------------------------
Document Types detected
-----------------------------------------------------

BINARY: 2
IGNORED: 59
NOTICE: 1 
STANDARD: 11 

*****************************************************
Detail
*****************************************************

  Documents with unapproved licenses will start with a '!'
  The first character on the next line identifies the document type.
   
   char         type
    A       Archive file
    B       Binary file
    I       Ignored file  
    N       Notice file
    S       Standard file
    U       Unknown file.

  /.codacy.yml
  I         text/x-yaml    

This would allow comparing the rat.txt files of 2 consecutive runs with the 
help of AI top see differences ..... would this be helpful for you as well?

As we provide language-agnostic functionality for Ant, Maven, CLI the current 
effort is to allow the same configuration for all 3 UIs -
if that is done we want to change the module structure of RAT and could think 
of adding the Gradle plugin as well (just to provde a little bit more context 
to you).

> *Prologue:* RAT-575
> (on) *Rationale:* big projects are experiencing longer build times with RAT 
> 0.17/ 0.18 (and this statistics can help to determine which paths/file types 
> should be added into excludes list).
> (i) *More details:* 
>  * show list like this: 
>  ** number of scanned .java files: XYZ
>  ** number of scanned .xml files: ABC
>  ** number of scanned .txt files: DEF
>  * only show this list in verbose mode
