Build and test deteKT static analysis diKTat code style codecov

Releases Maven Central FOSSA Status Chat on Telegram

Hits-of-Code Lines of code GitHub repo size Awesome Kotlin Badge

DiKTat is a strict coding standard for Kotlin, consisting of a collection of Kotlin code style rules implemented as Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) visitors built on top of KTlint. It serves the purpose of detecting and automatically fixing code smells in the Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) process. You can find the comprehensive list of supported rules and inspections here.

DiKTat has gained recognition and has been added to the lists of static analysis tools, kotlin-awesome, and kompar. We extend our gratitude to the community for this support!

Why Choose DiKTat for CI/CD?

While there are other tools like detekt and ktlint performing static analysis, you might wonder why DiKTat is necessary. Here are the key reasons:

  1. More Inspections: DiKTat boasts over 100 inspections tightly coupled with its Codestyle.

  2. Unique Inspections: DiKTat introduces unique inspections not found in other linters.

  3. Highly Configurable: Every inspection is highly configurable, allowing customization and suppression. Check configuration options and suppression.

  4. Strict Codestyle: DiKTat enforces a detailed Codestyle that can be adopted and applied in your project.

Download binary

  1. Download diKTat manually: here

    OR use curl:

    curl -sSLO https://github.com/saveourtool/diktat/releases/download/v2.0.0/diktat && chmod a+x diktat

For Windows only. Download diKTat.cmd manually: here

Run diKTat

Finally, run KTlint (with diKTat injected) to check your '*.kt' files in 'dir/your/dir':

$ ./diktat "dir/your/dir/**/*.kt"

On Windows

diktat.bat "dir/your/dir/**/*.kt"

To autofix all code style violations, use --mode fix option.

Run with Maven using diktat-maven-plugin

You can see how it is configured in our examples:

Add this plugin to your pom.xml:
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.saveourtool.diktat</groupId>
                <artifactId>diktat-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>${diktat.version}</version>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>diktat</id>
                        <phase>none</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>check</goal>
                            <goal>fix</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <inputs>
                                <input>${project.basedir}/src/main/kotlin</input>
                                <input>${project.basedir}/src/test/kotlin</input>
                            </inputs>
                            <diktatConfigFile>diktat-analysis.yml</diktatConfigFile>
                           <excludes>
                              <exclude>${project.basedir}/src/test/kotlin/excluded</exclude>
                           </excludes>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>

To run diktat in only-check mode use command $ mvn diktat:check@diktat. To run diktat in autocorrect mode use command $ mvn diktat:fix@diktat.

Requesting a specific Maven executionId on the command line (the trailing diktat in the above example) may be essential in these cases:

  • In your pom.xml, you have multiple executions with different configurations (e. g.: multiple rule sets):

    <executions>
    
        <execution>
            <id>diktat-basic</id>
            <configuration>
                <diktatConfigFile>diktat-analysis.yml</diktatConfigFile>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    
        <execution>
            <id>diktat-advanced</id>
            <configuration>
                <diktatConfigFile>diktat-analysis-advanced.yml</diktatConfigFile>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    
    </executions>
  • Your YAML file with DiKTat rules has a non-default name and/or resides in a non-default location:

    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>diktat</id>
            <configuration>
                <diktatConfigFile>/non/default/rule-set-file.yml</diktatConfigFile>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    • You can omit the diktatConfigFile or if it points to non-existed file then DiKTat runs with default configuration.

If you omit the executionId:

$ mvn diktat:check

— the plug-in will use the default configuration and search for diktat-analysis.yml file in the project directory (you can still customize the rule sets by editing the YAML file).

Run with Gradle using diktat-gradle-plugin

Requires a gradle version no lower than 7.0

You can see how the plugin is configured in our examples:

Add this plugin to your `build.gradle.kts`:
plugins {
    id("com.saveourtool.diktat") version "2.0.0"
}

Note If you want to apply the plugin to multi-module projects"

import com.saveourtool.diktat.plugin.gradle.DiktatGradlePlugin

plugins {
    id("com.saveourtool.diktat") version "2.0.0" apply false
}

allprojects {
    apply<DiktatGradlePlugin>()
}

You can then configure diktat using diktat extension:

diktat {
    inputs {
        include("src/**/*.kt")  // path matching this pattern (per PatternFilterable) that will be checked by diktat
        exclude("src/test/kotlin/excluded/**")  // path matching this pattern will not be checked by diktat
    }
    debug = true  // turn on debug logging
}

Also in diktat extension you can configure different reporters and their output. You can specify json, html, sarif, plain (default). If output is set, it should be a file path. If not set, results will be printed to stdout. You can specify multiple reporters. If no reporter is specified, plain will be used with stdout as output.

diktat {
    reporters {
        plain()
        json()
        html {
            output = file("someFile.html")
        }
        // checkstyle()
        // sarif()
        // gitHubActions()
    }
}

You can run diktat checks using task ./gradlew diktatCheck and automatically fix errors with task ./gradlew diktatFix.

Run with Spotless

Spotless is a linter aggregator.

Gradle

Diktat can be run via spotless-gradle-plugin since version 5.10.0

Add this plugin to your build.gradle.kts
plugins {
   id("com.diffplug.spotless") version "5.10.0"
}

spotless {
   kotlin {
      diktat()
   }
   kotlinGradle {
      diktat()
   }
}
You can provide a version and configuration path manually as configFile.
spotless {
   kotlin {
      diktat("2.0.0").configFile("full/path/to/diktat-analysis.yml")
   }
}

Maven

Diktat can be run via spotless-maven-plugin since version 2.8.0

Add this plugin to your pom.xml
<plugin>
   <groupId>com.diffplug.spotless</groupId>
   <artifactId>spotless-maven-plugin</artifactId>
   <version>${spotless.version}</version>
   <configuration>
      <kotlin>
         <diktat />
      </kotlin>
   </configuration>
</plugin>
You can provide a version and configuration path manually as configFile
<diktat>
  <version>2.0.0</version> <!-- optional -->
  <configFile>full/path/to/diktat-analysis.yml</configFile> <!-- optional, configuration file path -->
</diktat>

GitHub Integration

We suggest everyone to use common "sarif" format as a reporter in CI/CD. GitHub has an integration with SARIF format and provides you a native reporting of diktat issues in Pull Requests.

img.png

Github Integration 1) Add the following configuration to your project's setup for GitHub Actions:

Gradle Plugin:

    githubActions = true

Maven Plugin (pom.xml):

    <githubActions>true</githubActions>

Maven Plugin (cli options):

mvn -B diktat:check@diktat -Ddiktat.githubActions=true
  1. Add the following code to your GitHub Action to upload diktat SARIF report (after it was generated):
      - name: Upload SARIF to Github using the upload-sarif action
        uses: github/codeql-action/upload-sarif@v1
        if: ${{ always() }}
        with:
          sarif_file: ${{ github.workspace }}

Note: codeql-action/upload-sarif limits the number of uploaded files at 15. If your project has more than 15 subprojects, the limit will be exceeded and the step will fail. To solve this issue one can merge SARIF reports.

diktat-gradle-plugin provides this capability with mergeDiktatReports task. This task aggregates reports of all diktat tasks of all Gradle project, which produce SARIF reports, and outputs the merged report into root project's build directory. Then this single file can be used as an input for GitHub action:

with:
    sarif_file: build/reports/diktat/diktat-merged.sarif

Customizations via diktat-analysis.yml

In Diktat we have supported diktat-analysis.yml that can be easily changed and help in customization of your own rule set. It has simple fields: name — name of the rule, enabled (true/false) — to enable or disable that rule (all rules are enabled by the default), configuration — a simple map of some extra unique configurations for this particular rule. For example:

- name: HEADER_MISSING_OR_WRONG_COPYRIGHT
  # all rules are enabled by the default. To disable add 'enabled: false' to the config.
  enabled: true
  configuration:
    isCopyrightMandatory: true
    copyrightText: Copyright (c) Jeff Lebowski, 2012-2020. All rights reserved.

Note, that you can specify and put diktat-analysis.yml that contains configuration of diktat in the parent directory of your project on the same level where build.gradle/pom.xml is stored.
See default configuration in diktat-analysis.yml
Also see the list of all rules supported by diKTat.

Suppress warnings/inspections

Suppress warnings on individual code blocks In addition to enabling/disabling warning globally via config file (`enable = false`), you can suppress warnings by adding `@Suppress` annotation on individual code blocks or `@file:Suppress()` annotation on a file-level.

For example:

@Suppress("FUNCTION_NAME_INCORRECT_CASE")
class SomeClass {
    fun methODTREE(): String {

    }
}
Disable all inspections on selected code blocks Also you can suppress **all** warnings by adding `@Suppress("diktat")` annotation on individual code blocks.

For example:

@Suppress("diktat")
class SomeClass {
    fun methODTREE(): String {

    }
}
ignoreAnnotated: disable inspections on blocks with predefined annotation In the `diktat-analysis.yml` file for each inspection it is possible to define a list of annotations that will cause disabling of the inspection on that particular code block:
- name: HEADER_NOT_BEFORE_PACKAGE
  enabled: true
  ignoreAnnotated: [MyAnnotation, Compose, Controller]
Suppress groups of inspections by chapters It is easy to suppress even groups of inspections in diKTat.

These groups are linked to chapters of Codestyle.

To disable chapters, you will need to add the following configuration to common configuration (- name: DIKTAT_COMMON):

    disabledChapters: "1, 2, 3"

Mapping of inspections to chapters can be found in Groups of Inspections.

Running against the baseline

When setting up code style analysis on a large existing project, one often doesn't have an ability to fix all findings at once. To allow gradual adoption, diktat and ktlint support baseline mode. When running ktlint for the first time with active baseline, the baseline file will be generated. It is a xml file with a complete list of findings by the tool. On later invocations, only the findings that are not in the baseline file will be reported. Baseline can be activated with CLI flag:

./diktat --baseline=diktat-baseline.xml **/*.kt

or with corresponding configuration options in maven or gradle plugins. Baseline report is intended to be added into the VCS, but it can be removed and re-generated later, if needed.
