Run with NPM

The npm packagepackmind-cli allows to compute best practices suggestions on a code base to detect locations where best practices are not followed. It also provides facilities to produce a report file for tools like SonarQube, or in the SARIF format (Static Analysis Results Interchange Format).

npm: packmind-clinpm

Installation

We recommend installing the packmind-cli tool globally.

npm i -g packmind-cli 

Configuration

There is one mandatory parameter to set:

• PACKMIND_API_KEY: A valid user API Key to connect to your Packmind instance.

We recommend setting these values as environment variables, but you can also pass them as command-line arguments.

The simplest way to export them is to set them in the shell configuration file (.zshrc for zsh, .bashrcfor bash):

export PACKMIND_API_KEY="..."

Make sure to run the source command so that the environment variable is properly loaded.

source ~/.zshrc

Run a scan in standalone mode

Run the following command to ensure everything works fine:

packmind-cli scan .
