ScanCode

ScanCode

A wrapper for ScanCode.

Configuration​

Example​

{
  "ScanCode": {
    "options": {
      "commandLine": "--copyright,--license,--info,--strip-root,--timeout,300",
      "commandLineNonConfig": null,
      "preferFileLicense": false,
      "regScannerName": null,
      "minVersion": null,
      "maxVersion": null,
      "configuration": null,
      "readFromStorage": true,
      "writeToStorage": true
    }
  }
}

Options​

commandLine​

STRING_LIST Default

Command line options that modify the result. These are added to the [ScannerDetails] when looking up results from a [ScanStorage].

commandLineNonConfig​

STRING_LIST

Command line options that do not modify the result and should therefore not be considered in [configuration], like "--processes". If this does not contain "--processes", it is added with a value of one less than the number of available processors.

preferFileLicense​

BOOLEAN Default

A flag to indicate whether the "high-level" per-file license reported by ScanCode starting with version 32 should be used instead of the individual "low-level" per-line license findings. The per-file license may be different from the conjunction of per-line licenses and is supposed to contain fewer false-positives. However, no exact line numbers can be associated to the per-file license anymore. If enabled, the start line of the per-file license finding is set to the minimum of all start lines for per-line findings in that file, the end line is set to the maximum of all end lines for per-line findings in that file, and the score is set to the arithmetic average of the scores of all per-line findings in that file.

regScannerName​

STRING

A regular expression to match the scanner name when looking up scan results in the storage.

minVersion​

STRING

The minimum version of stored scan results to use.

maxVersion​

STRING

The maximum version of stored scan results to use.

configuration​

STRING

The configuration to use for the scanner. Only scan results with the same configuration are used when looking up scan results in the storage.

readFromStorage​

BOOLEAN Default

Whether to read scan results from the storage.

writeToStorage​

BOOLEAN Default

Whether to write scan results to the storage.
