Dockerfile to build lastest cppcheck

cppcheck-docker

Introduction

Dockerfile to build latest and any tagged version of cppcheck.

Main aims:

1. Ability to build the most recent version of cppcheck. With this Dockerfile you can build the lastest main and any tagged version.

2. Make the result image as small as possible. This Dockerfile uses alpine linux and removes any unneeded file and strips the resulting cppcheck binary.

3. Easy to use. Only need to mount a directory to /src to start check.

Usage

Available Multi-Arch Images

CI/CD will automatically build, test and push new images to container registries. Currently, the following registries are supported:

• DockerHub
• GitHub Container Registry

CLI

docker run -v $(pwd):/src neszt/cppcheck-docker

To allow Ctrl + C during cppcheck run use -t docker argument:

docker run -t -v $(pwd):/src neszt/cppcheck-docker

Cppcheck manual

Build your own image

Latest:

docker build -t cppcheck .

For Specific version use any tag from cppcheck tags

docker build --build-arg SOURCE_BRANCH=2.2 -t cppcheck .

cppcheck-docker's Issues

license?

Hey @neszt - I found this helpful - thanks.

You have a license for this? I'd like to leverage, but want to make sure I'm in the clear (ie, apache2, or MIT, or... )?

Build Failure

Cppcheck no longer builds under Alpine.

I get 2 errors:

cli/filelister.cpp: In function 'void addFiles2(std::map<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>, long unsigned int>&, const string&, const std::set<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char> >&, bool, const PathMatch&)':
cli/filelister.cpp:205:86: error: 'NAME_MAX' was not declared in this scope
  205 |                 char buf[sizeof(*dir_result) + (sizeof(dir_result->d_name) > 1 ? 0 : NAME_MAX + 1)];
      |                                                                                      ^~~~~~~~

  207 |             UNUSED(dir_result_buffer.buf); // do not trigger cppcheck itself on the "unused buf"
      |                                      ^~~

I don't know how long this has been the case as the last build I did (1.90 dev) was last year.

It builds OK on Ubuntu, so I'm pretty sure it's not a coding error.

cppcheck-htmlreport & cppcheck-codequality

• cppcheck-htmlreport doesn't work because requires packages python3 and py3-pygments
• It would be nice to add cppcheck-codequality (https://gitlab.com/ahogen/cppcheck-codequality) for gitlab cicd. install: apk add py3-pip; pip install cppcheck-codequality

Tag docker image

Could you please add a tag other than latest to your docker images?

This way the dependency is not broken if you change something in the future.

Thanks!

cppcheck: error: unrecognized command line option: "-c".

Hi Neszt,

thanks for providing the docker Conatiner. When i use your docker image inside gitlab i encounter the error

cppcheck: error: unrecognized command line option: "-c".

My yml file looks like follows:

check:
  image: neszt/cppcheck-docker:latest
  except:
    changes:
      - 'doc/**'
      - 'README.md'
  script:
    - bash -c "echo $PWD" 

Do you have an idea what could cause the issue?

Thanks for your help.
