TLDR: Turn cpplint / cppcheck / flake8 messages to Gerrit comments
Many projects use Gerrit for code-reviews and in addition use static code analysis tools to report about the quality of the code in review. For example, Jenkins comes with a nice integration of Gerrit, there is no suitable way to generate line-by-line annotations of the output of static code analysis tools for Gerrit.
This project allows you to transform the output of the tools: cppcheck, cpplint and flake8 into line by line comments in Gerrit.
This is as easy as:
sudo pip install gerrit-check
The typical usage for this project is to use in conjunction with a continuous integration server that runs for example pre-commit checks on a particular Gerrit change set.
gerrit-check -g gerrit.some.company.com \
-t cpplint \
--user jenkins \
--commit ${GIT_HASH}
This will run cpplint on the modified files and lines identified by the GIT_HASH and submit a review on this patch to the Gerrit instance identified in the arguments.
If access to the Gerrit server is not directly possible, the -l option will
force the output to be written to stdout so that it can be saved and
post-processed.
In a similar way to the above described simplication the script could be used as follows:
gerrit-check -t cpplint --commit ${GIT_HASH} \
| ssh [email protected] gerrit review ${GIT_HASH} --json
