Possible to get report in JSON format?

[prakash-26790]

I just want to extract the incompatibilities in JSON format.
So is there any flag available which I can give while running the compliance checker tool?

Hi,

There is no such flag yet.

But you have two options here:

1. Read the first line of the HTML report. It's structured data like this and can be quickly read and parsed:

    kind:binary;verdict:incompatible;affected:6.7;added:111;removed:0;type_problems_high:14;type_problems_medium:1;type_problems_low:6;method_problems_high:0;method_problems_medium:0;method_problems_low:0;checked_methods:1632;checked_types:184;tool_version:2.2
   

2. Use https://github.com/lvc/japi-tracker for your project. It generates JSON reports like this: https://github.com/lvc/api-reports-4j/blob/master/report/accumulo.json

Thank you.
