Automatically fixing SonarQube and SpotBugs Java rules with source-to-source transformations.
- String literals should not be duplicated
- String function use should be optimized for single characters
- Strings should not be concatenated using '+' in a loop
- Parsing should be used to convert "Strings" to primitives
- Strings literals should be placed on the left side when checking for equality
- Constructors should not be used to instantiate "String", "BigInteger", "BigDecimal" and primitive-wrapper classes
- "entrySet()" should be iterated when both the key and value are needed
- Collection.isEmpty() should be used to test for emptiness
- "Collections.EMPTY_LIST", "EMPTY_MAP", and "EMPTY_SET" should not be used
Please download the runnable.jar.
For a quickstart with default settings (all rules and ignoring test files):
java -jar spongebugs-runner-2.0.0.jar /tmp/project/path/srcPlease make sure that your java points to a JDK (version >= 8).
You can pass several path arguments to the jar, including directories and .java files. Make sure to provide full paths.
For more advanced settings, such as including/excluding specific rules, or to not ignore test files, refer to RUNNING.md.
