< h3 id = "installation" > Installation< / h3 >
< p > PMD is distributed as a zip archive, which includes both < a href = "#running-pmd-via-command-line" > PMD< / a > and < a href = "pmd_userdocs_cpd.html" > CPD< / a > .
You can download the latest binary distribution from < a href = "https://github.com/pmd/pmd/releases" > the github releases page< / a > .< / p >
< p > Unzip it into any directory, optionally add the < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > bin< / code > subdirectory in your < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > PATH< / code > , and you’ re good to go!< / p >
< h2 id = "running-pmd-via-command-line" > Running PMD via command line< / h2 >
< div class = "bs-callout bs-callout-primary" > PMD comes with several command line utilities, like CPD, the rule designer or PMD itself.
On Unix, you can run any of them using the script < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > run.sh< / code > , located inside the < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > bin/< / code >
directory of the PMD distribution. The first argument is the name of the utility you want
to execute (‘ pmd’ , ‘ designer’ , …), e.g. PMD is launched via < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > run.sh pmd< / code > . The rest of
the arguments are specific to the utility used.< br / > < br / >
On Windows, each utility has its own startup script, e.g. < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > pmd.bat< / code > , < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > cpd.bat< / code > .< / div >
< p > The PMD command (< code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > pmd.bat< / code > or < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > run.sh pmd< / code > ) requires two options:< / p >
< ul >
2022-12-31 14:44:28 +00:00
< li > < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > -d < path> < / code > : Root directory for sources to be analyzed. This can be a single file name, a directory,
or a jar or zip file containing the sources.< / li >
2020-11-14 09:20:07 +00:00
< li > < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > -R < path> < / code > : the ruleset file you want to use. PMD uses xml configuration files, called < em > rulesets< / em > , which specify
which rules to execute on your sources. You can also run a single rule by referencing it using its < em > category< / em > and
name (more details < a href = "pmd_userdocs_making_rulesets.html#referencing-a-single-rule" > here< / a > ). For example, you can check for unnecessary
modifiers on Java sources with < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > -R category/java/codestyle.xml/UnnecessaryModifier< / code > .< / li >
< / ul >
< div class = "alert alert-info" role = "alert" > < i class = "fa fa-info-circle" > < / i > < b > Note:< / b > At the moment the formerly provided rulesets (eg < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > rulesets/java/basic.xml< / code > ) are deprecated,
though you can still use them. PMD includes a quickstart ruleset for some languages (currently, Java)
as base configurations, which you can reference as e.g. < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > rulesets/java/quickstart.xml< / code > . You’ re strongly
encouraged to < a href = "pmd_userdocs_making_rulesets.html" > create your own ruleset< / a > from the start though.< / div >
< p > Additionally, the following options, are specified most of the time even though they’ re not required:< / p >
< ul >
< li > < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > -f < format> < / code > : report format. PMD supports many report formats out of the box. You may want to start with the basic
< code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > text< / code > format (default) or < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > xml< / code > format. The supported formats are < a href = "pmd_userdocs_cli_reference.html#available-report-formats" > documented here< / a > .< / li >
2021-11-26 08:47:44 +00:00
< li > < code class = "language-plaintext highlighter-rouge" > --aux-classpath < classpath> < / code > : class path containing the compiled class files of the analysed Java sources, if any.
2020-11-14 09:20:07 +00:00
Setting this up correctly allows PMD to do much deeper analysis using reflection. Some rules, such as < a href = "pmd_rules_java_bestpractices.html#missingoverride" > MissingOverride< / a > ,
require it to function properly.< / li >
