Run
Runs multiple DCM commands at once and provides the merged output (console, code climate / gitlab, json, checkstyle, sonar).
This command is supposed to be used on CI/CD. It has no progress indication and does not show any output on a successful run.
To execute the command, run:
$ dcm run --analyze --unused-code lib # or dcm r --analyze --unused-code lib

Suppressing Individual Commands​
Using --exclude
affects all passed commands and won't help with configuring excludes for only one of the passed commands.
To configure excludes for individual commands, use the analysis_options.yaml configuration.
Output Example​
Console (default)​
Use --reporter=console
to get output in console format.
JSON​
Use --reporter=json
to get output as a single JSON object containing metadata and violations grouped by file.
