loadanalysisdb - Critique a body of code and load the results into a database for later processing.
loadanalysisdb
loadanalysisdb path [...]
Scan a body of code and, rather than emit the results in a textual format, put them into a database so that analyses can be made.
This example doesn't put anything into the database that isn't available from Perl::Critic::Violation in order to keep the code easier to understand. In a full application of the idea presented here, one might want to include the current date and a distribution name in the database so that progress on cleaning up a code corpus can be tracked.
Note the explanation attribute of Perl::Critic::Violation is constant for most policies, but some of them do provide more specific diagnostics of the code in question.
A list of paths to files and directories to find code in.
None.

Perl::Critic DBD::SQLite Perl6::Say Readonly
An SQLite database named "perl_critic_analysis.sqlite" with the following schema:
CREATE TABLE violation ( file_path VARCHAR(1024), line_number INTEGER, column_number INTEGER, severity INTEGER, policy VARCHAR(512), explanation TEXT, source_code TEXT )
None reported.
This is an example program and thus does minimal error handling.
