Motivation

Static code analysis is a helpful tool to improve and keep high level of code quality. Static code analyzer inspects the source code and looks for issues like wrong usage of some API, bugprone statements, potential performance issues and many others. The static analyzers available on our KDE instance of GitLab are clazy and clang-tidy. Since both of those analyzers are based on the clang C++ compiler, the issues the analyzers find are reported as regular compiler warnings.

Setting up

The GitLab CI pipeline for each project is defined in project's .gitlab-ci.yml file, which must be placed in the top-level directory of the project's git repository.

Below are examples of default configuration that you need to add to the .gitlab-ci.yml file in order to get the static analysis jobs working. The configuration is slightly different based on whether your project is part of Frameworks, Applications or Extragear "groups", or whether it's a completely standalone project (e.g. a personal project).

Frameworks, Applications and Extragear projects

include:
  - https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/raw/master/invent/ci-before.yml
  - https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/raw/master/invent/ci-<PRODUCT>-linux.yml
  - https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/raw/master/invent/ci-static-analysis.yml

Replace <PRODUCT> with the lower-case name of the product your application belongs to, i.e. frameworks, applications or extragear.

Playground/Miscellaneous projects
