Support for CI Integration

I think this is a great idea. Especially if we only have to support one format.

Hey,
prelude -> I'm a JavaScript guy who rarely touched ruby before, so unfortunately I'm not able to implement this on my own :(

Basically, what CSSCSS does, can be considered as Copy & Paste Detection (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplicate_code) there are other tools for other languages that can detect & report such issues (https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpcpd).

Those tools normally can output the results in a special XML format, that can be consumed by various CI Tools (like Jenkins for example).
They mostly convert it to some nice diagrams & can also fail the build if the
rate of copy-pasted code is above a user defined value.

The defacto standard pmd-cpd XML output would look like this:

What do you think, could that reporter be easily integrated into the CSSCSS? I think a lot people would benefit from this.

Nice to hear :)
As usual, there are a few formats out there, but from my experience pmd-cpd is the one that
has the best support out there.

I'm thinking about output into a HTML template which obviously could be personalised with CSS but I don't know where to start. Did you already investigate in this? I would like to push this forward. Please let me know if something exists where I contribute.

@verpixelt Nothing has been done for this either.

Okay. I'm looking right now for a few Devs who will help me build something ;)

We did a little thing, called it csscssbeauty and you can find it right here: https://github.com/garthenweb/csscssbeauty
At this moment it's nothing fancy, but you get your output in a simple HTML template which will live reload while your changing things in your editor of choice. We will put in more time and effort soonish.
