maykopetersen/cppcheck repository overview

⁠cppcheck

⁠🤷 What is this?

A Cppcheck Docker image based on the official Cppcheck documentation and Docker best practices.

The Official Cppcheck repository is https://github.com/cppcheck-opensource/cppcheck⁠.

⁠🧑‍💻 How to use?

You can analyze your code by mounting the source-code directory into the container at /workspace and passing Cppcheck options directly:

docker run --rm -it \
  -v .:/workspace \
  maykopetersen/cppcheck:latest \
  --output-file=cppcheck-report.xml --xml-version=2 --enable=all --force --max-configs=1 .

💡Tip

The report generated by cppcheck can be used by SonarScanner⁠ to analyze the code and send the results to SonarQube⁠. If you use SonarQube Community Edition⁠ you should install the SonarQube C++ Community plugin (cxx plugin)⁠.

To speed up Cppcheck analysis, run something like this (it is recommended to use /opt/build-dir as the build folder):

docker run --rm -it \
  -v .:/workspace/ \
  maykopetersen/cppcheck:latest \
  --output-file=cppcheck --xml-version=2 --enable=all --force --max-configs=1 --cppcheck-build-dir=/opt/build-dir -j $(nproc) .

You can see all available options by running the --help command:

docker run --rm maykopetersen/cppcheck:latest --help

You can learn more about Cppcheck by reading the official documentation⁠.

⁠🔎 Details

Cppcheck was built according to the official documentation⁠, which says:

The recommended release build is:

make MATCHCOMPILER=yes FILESDIR=/usr/share/cppcheck HAVE_RULES=yes CXXOPTS="-O2" CPPOPTS="-DNDEBUG"

Flags

  • MATCHCOMPILER=yes Several Token matching patterns are converted into more efficient C++ code at compile time (requires Python 3.7 or later).
  • FILESDIR=/usr/share/cppcheck Specifies the folder where Cppcheck files (addons, cfg, platform) are installed to.
  • HAVE_RULES=yes For rules support (requires Perl Compatible Regular Expressions - PCRE)
  • CXXOPTS="-O2" Enables most compiler optimizations.
  • CPPOPTS="-DNDEBUG" Disables assertions.
  • HAVE_BOOST=yes Enables usage of more efficient container from Boost (requires Boost to be installed).

These build options were configured in the CMake build system to match the recommended release build.
