# Clippy Dev Tool
The Clippy Dev Tool is a tool to ease Clippy development, similar to `rustc`s
`x.py`.
Functionalities (incomplete):
## `lintcheck`
Runs clippy on a fixed set of crates read from
`clippy_dev/lintcheck_crates.toml` and saves logs of the lint warnings into the
repo. We can then check the diff and spot new or disappearing warnings.
From the repo root, run:
```
cargo run --target-dir clippy_dev/target --package clippy_dev \
--bin clippy_dev --manifest-path clippy_dev/Cargo.toml --features lintcheck -- lintcheck
```
or
```
cargo dev-lintcheck
```
By default the logs will be saved into
`lintcheck-logs/lintcheck_crates_logs.txt`.
You can set a custom sources.toml by adding `--crates-toml custom.toml` or using
`LINTCHECK_TOML="custom.toml"` where `custom.toml` must be a relative path from
the repo root.
The results will then be saved to `lintcheck-logs/custom_logs.toml`.
### Configuring the Crate Sources
The sources to check are saved in a `toml` file. There are three types of
sources.
1. Crates-io Source
```toml
bitflags = {name = "bitflags", versions = ['1.2.1']}
```
Requires a "name" and one or multiple "versions" to be checked.
2. `git` Source
````toml
puffin = {name = "puffin", git_url = "https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/puffin", git_hash = "02dd4a3"}
````
Requires a name, the url to the repo and unique identifier of a commit,
branch or tag which is checked out before linting. There is no way to always
check `HEAD` because that would lead to changing lint-results as the repo
would get updated. If `git_url` or `git_hash` is missing, an error will be
thrown.
3. Local Dependency
```toml
clippy = {name = "clippy", path = "/home/user/clippy"}
```
For when you want to add a repository that is not published yet.
#### Command Line Options (optional)
```toml
bitflags = {name = "bitflags", versions = ['1.2.1'], options = ['-Wclippy::pedantic', '-Wclippy::cargo']}
```
It is possible to specify command line options for each crate. This makes it
possible to only check a crate for certain lint groups. If no options are
specified, the lint groups `clippy::all`, `clippy::pedantic`, and
`clippy::cargo` are checked. If an empty array is specified only `clippy::all`
is checked.
**Note:** `-Wclippy::all` is always enabled by default, unless `-Aclippy::all`
is explicitly specified in the options.
