       clang-tidy - manual page for clang-tidy 15

DESCRIPTION

       USAGE: clang-tidy [options] <source0> [... <sourceN>]

       OPTIONS:

       Generic Options:

       --help                         - Display available options (--help-hidden for more)

       --help-list                    - Display list of available options (--help-list-hidden for
              more)

       --version                      - Display the version of this program

       clang-tidy options:

       --checks=<string>              -
              Comma-separated list of globs with optional '-'  prefix.  Globs  are  processed  in
              order  of appearance in the list. Globs without '-' prefix add checks with matching
              names to the set, globs with the '-' prefix remove checks with matching names  from
              the  set  of  enabled  checks.  This option's value is appended to the value of the
              'Checks' option in .clang-tidy file, if any.

       --config=<string>              -
              Specifies a configuration in YAML/JSON format:

       -config="{Checks: '*',
              CheckOptions: {x: y}}"

       When the value is empty, clang-tidy will
              attempt to find a file named  .clang-tidy  for  each  source  file  in  its  parent
              directories.

       --config-file=<string>         -
              Specify the path of .clang-tidy or custom config file:

       e.g. --config-file=/some/path/myTidyConfigFile
              This option internally works exactly the same way as

       --config option after reading specified config file.
              Use either --config-file or --config, not both.

       --dump-config                  -
              Dumps  configuration  in  the  YAML format to stdout. This option can be used along
              with a file name (and '--' if the file is outside  of  a  project  with  configured
              compilation  database).  The configuration used for this file will be printed.  Use
              along with -checks=* to include configuration of all checks.

       --enable-check-profile         -
              Enable per-check timing profiles, and print a report to stderr.

       --explain-config               -
              For each enabled check explains, where it is enabled, i.e.  in  clang-tidy  binary,
              command line or a specific configuration file.

       --export-fixes=<filename>      -
              YAML file to store suggested fixes in. The stored fixes can be applied to the input
              source code with clang-apply-replacements.

       --extra-arg=<string>           - Additional argument to append  to  the  compiler  command
              line

       --extra-arg-before=<string>     -  Additional  argument to prepend to the compiler command
              line

       --fix                          -
              Apply suggested  fixes.  Without  -fix-errors  clang-tidy  will  bail  out  if  any
              compilation errors were found.

       --fix-errors                   -
              Apply  suggested  fixes  even  if compilation errors were found. If compiler errors
              have attached fix-its, clang-tidy will apply them as well.

       --fix-notes                    -
              If a warning has no fix, but a single  fix  can  be  found  through  an  associated
              diagnostic  note,  apply  the fix.  Specifying this flag will implicitly enable the
              '--fix' flag.

       --format-style=<string>        -
              Style for formatting code around applied fixes:

       - 'none' (default) turns off formatting
              - 'file' (literally 'file', not a placeholder)

       uses .clang-format file in the closest parent
              directory

       - '{ <json> }' specifies options inline, e.g.
              -format-style='{BasedOnStyle: llvm, IndentWidth: 8}'

       - 'llvm', 'google', 'webkit', 'mozilla'
              See clang-format documentation for  the  up-to-date  information  about  formatting
              styles  and options.  This option overrides the 'FormatStyle` option in .clang-tidy
              file, if any.

       --header-filter=<string>       -
              Regular expression matching the names of the headers to  output  diagnostics  from.
              Diagnostics  from the main file of each translation unit are always displayed.  Can
              be used together with -line-filter.  This option overrides the  'HeaderFilterRegex'
              option in .clang-tidy file, if any.

       --line-filter=<string>         -
              List  of  files  with line ranges to filter the warnings. Can be used together with
              -header-filter. The format of the list is a JSON array of objects:

       [      {"name":"file1.cpp","lines":[[1,3],[5,7]]}, {"name":"file2.h"}

              ]

       --list-checks                  -
              List all enabled checks and exit. Use with -checks=* to list all available checks.

       --load=<pluginfilename>        - Load the specified plugin

       -p <string>                    - Build path

       --quiet                        -
              Run clang-tidy in quiet mode. This suppresses  printing  statistics  about  ignored
              warnings and warnings treated as errors if the respective options are specified.

       --store-check-profile=<prefix> -
              By  default  reports are printed in tabulated format to stderr. When this option is
              passed, these per-TU profiles are instead stored as JSON.

       --system-headers               - Display the errors from system headers.

       --use-color                    -
              Use colors in diagnostics. If  not  set,  colors  will  be  used  if  the  terminal
              connected to standard output supports colors.  This option overrides the 'UseColor'
              option in .clang-tidy file, if any.

       --verify-config                -
              Check the config files to ensure each check and option is recognized.

       --vfsoverlay=<filename>        -
              Overlay the virtual filesystem described by file over the real file system.

       --warnings-as-errors=<string>  -
              Upgrades warnings to errors. Same format as  '-checks'.   This  option's  value  is
              appended to the value of the 'WarningsAsErrors' option in .clang-tidy file, if any.

       -p <build-path> is used to read a compile command database.

              For   example,   it  can  be  a  CMake  build  directory  in  which  a  file  named
              compile_commands.json exists (use -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=ON  CMake  option
              to   get   this   output).   When   no  build  path  is  specified,  a  search  for
              compile_commands.json will be attempted through all parent paths of the first input
              file   .   See:  https://clang.llvm.org/docs/HowToSetupToolingForLLVM.html  for  an
              example of setting up Clang Tooling on a source tree.

       <source0> ... specify the paths of source files. These paths are

              looked up in the compile command database. If the path of a file  is  absolute,  it
              needs  to  point  into  CMake's  source  tree. If the path is relative, the current
              working directory needs to be in the CMake source tree and the file must  be  in  a
              subdirectory  of the current working directory. "./" prefixes in the relative files
              will be automatically removed, but the rest of a relative path must be a suffix  of
              a path in the compile command database.

   Configuration files:
              clang-tidy  attempts  to read configuration for each source file from a .clang-tidy
              file  located  in  the  closest  parent  directory   of   the   source   file.   If
              InheritParentConfig  is true in a config file, the configuration file in the parent
              directory (if any exists) will be taken and current config file will be applied  on
              top  of  the  parent  one.  If  any  configuration  options  have  a  corresponding
              command-line  option,  command-line  option  takes   precedence.    The   effective
              configuration can be inspected using -dump-config:

              $ clang-tidy -dump-config
