Andreas Sewe created MCHECKSTYLE-229:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Enable logging of non-violations
Key: MCHECKSTYLE-229
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-229
Project: Maven Checkstyle Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.12.1
Reporter: Andreas Sewe
CHECKSTYLE-182 is now addressed in 2.12 and produces nice-looking outputs on
the console. :-)
Alas, {{logViolationsToConsole}} only does so if the output in question is
indeed a violation, i.e., something that you normally would like to fail the
build ({{failOnViolation}} is true by default). This is typically not the case
for things that Checkstyle considers warnings ({{violationSeverity}} defaults
to {{error}}).
As far as I can see, there is no way to configure the
{{maven-checkstyle-plugin}} to log things that are not considered violations
({{consoleOutput}} only prints meaningless "Starting audit" messages, so that
parameter doesn't offer a workaround).
As far as I can see, a more flexible way would be to have the following three
properties:
* {{failOnViolation}}
* {{violationSeverity}} (one of {{error}}, {{warning}}, {{info}})
* {{logSeverity}} (one of {{error}}, {{warning}}, {{info}}, {{none}})
This would allow one to drop {{logViolationsToConsole}} (can be emulated by
setting {{logSeverity}} equal to or lower than {{violationSeverity}}) while at
the same time enabling the logging of, e.g., non-violation warnings.
What do you think?
