Advanced oelint

## Purpose

Based on the [OpenEmbedded Styleguide](https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Styleguide) and work done by [oe-stylize-tool](https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded/blob/master/contrib/oe-stylize.py) this module offers a (nearly) complete linter for bitbake-recipes.

The tool should help anyone working with YOCTO/OpenEmbedded to write more clean, less 'magical' recipes, without the need to know all the internals of your used poky/OpenEmbedded version.

It could also be used as part of a CI to avoid hard to debug issues slipping to your code base - be sure to checkout [rulefile](#defining-a-ruleset) for that use case.

As every linter this tool is sometimes extra picky, but for the good of it, not just to bug people.
Especially for novice users it might be a help to avoid the most common pitfalls of bitbake recipes.

The tool does handle includes/requires automatically, so you don't have to pass them via CLI.

**NOTE**: .bbappend-files have to be passed via CLI - these are NOT gathered automatically.

## Install

With pip (**recommended**)

```shell
pip3 install oelint_adv
```

from source

```shell
git clone https://github.com/priv-kweihmann/oelint-adv
cd oelint-adv
python3 setup.py install # might require sudo/root permissions
```

**NOTE** if you install from source, you'll have to provide all matching
required python libraries on your own. See [requirements.txt](requirements.txt) for details

/disk/meta-some/cppcheck-native/cppcheck-native_1.87.bb:0:error:oelint.var.mandatoryvar.SECTION:Variable 'SECTION' should be set
/disk/meta-some/cppcheck-native/cppcheck.inc:1:warning:oelint.vars.summary80chars:'SUMMARY' should not be longer than 80 characters

```

## Apply automatic fixing

Some of the rules are capable of fixing the issues found automatically.
This will be done if you pass **--fix** as a startup parameter.

As long as you don't pass **--nobackup** a backup copy (filename + .bak) will be created for all files fixed.

### Non-default rulesets

To enable rulesets that are not part of the standard ruleset pass
**--addrules \<ruleset-name\>** to CLI.

These rules are sometimes contrary to OE-style-guide, so use them with caution.

#### jetm ruleset

To enable pass **--addrules jetm** to CLI.

Rules marked with **[F]** are able to perform automatic fixing.

* oelint.jetm.vars.dependssingleline - Each [R]DEPENDS entry should be put into a single line
  
### Writing your own additional rules

By passing `--customrules` via CLI you could add additional rules to be checked.
The argument should point to a directory - every class derived from `Rule` will be automatically loaded.
Please use the following as a template for your own:

```python
from oelint_adv.cls_rule import Rule


class FooMagicRule(Rule):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(id="foocorp.foo.magic",
                         severity="error",
                         message="Too much foo happening here")

    def check(self, _file, stash):
        res = []
        items = stash.GetItemsFor(filename=_file)
        for i in items:
            if "Foo" in i.Raw:
                res += self.finding(i.Origin, i.InFileLine)
        return res

    # To provide automatic fixing capability
    # add the following optional function
    def fix(self, _file, stash):
        res = []
        items = stash.GetItemsFor(filename=_file)
        for i in items:
            if 'Foo' in i.Raw:
                # you have to replace the content of `RealRaw` and `Raw`
                # with the fixed content
                # `Raw` is the raw block with expanded inlines blocks
                # `RealRaw` is the raw block without any modifications
                #           this is what will be actually written to the file
                i.RealRaw = i.RealRaw.replace('Foo', 'Bar')
                i.Raw = i.Raw.replace('Foo', 'Bar')
                # Return the file name to signalize that fixes have been
                # applied
                res.append(_file)
        return res
```

For more details please see the function docstrings of the API.

You can find this example also in the development [source tree](https://github.com/priv-kweihmann/oelint-adv/tree/master/docs)

Additional real-life examples can be found in e.g. [meta-rubygems](https://github.com/priv-kweihmann/meta-rubygems/tree/master/files/lint/oelint-custom)

## Defining a ruleset

If you pass the option `--rulefile` you could define the rules to be checked and their severity via a simple json file.

The rule file could look like this:

```json
{
  "<rule>": "<severity>"
}
```

to override the severity, or

```json
{
  "<rule>": ""
}
```

to keep the original severity.

### Example

```json
{
  "oelint.file.includenotfound": "",
  "oelint.file.requirenotfound": "warning"
}
```

would enable the two rules `oelint.file.includenotfound` and `oelint.file.requirenotfound`.
The severity of `oelint.file.includenotfound` will be the default of the tool, while `oelint.file.requirenotfound` will report `warning` instead of the original suggested severity.

### Adding additional constants

Please see [oelint-parser](https://github.com/priv-kweihmann/oelint-parser) for further details, how to add your own constants to the parser.

## Output message format

You can freely define a custom output format.
The following placeholder symbols will be automatically replaced

| name       | replaced by                |
| ---------- | -------------------------- |
| {path}     | path of the file           |
| {line}     | line of the finding        |
| {severity} | severity of the finding    |
| {id}       | error-ID of the finding    |
| {msg}      | description of the finding |

## Configuration file

You can define your own global or project wide defaults for all CLI parameters with an ini-style configuration file.

In the following order files are probed

* file pointed to by environment variable `OELINT_CONFIG`
* file `.oelint.cfg` in current work directory
* file `.oelint.cfg` in your `HOME` directory

Explicitly passed options to CLI are always chosen over the defaults defined by the configuration file

### File format

```ini
[oelint]
# this will set the --nowarn parameter automatically
nowarn = True
# this will set A + B as suppress item
# use indent (tab) and line breaks for multiple items
suppress = 
  A
  B
# this will set messageformat parameter
messageformat = {severity}:{id}:{msg}
```

You can find an example file [here](docs/.oelint.cfg.example)

## Inline suppression

You can suppress one or more checks on a line by line basis

```bitbake
# nooelint: <id>[,<id>,...]
```

suppresses all the specified IDs for the next line.
Multiple IDs can be separated by commas.

### Example

```bitbake
# nooelint: oelint.vars.insaneskip
INSANE_SKIP:${PN} = "foo"
```

will not warn about the usage of `INSANE_SKIP`.
