Analyze your project commits

First you must create a file to explain how build the project that you will test.

The file is a TOML format et must contains this keys:

  • project_dir : path of the project source code. Absolute path or relative to this file.
  • build_dir : folder where the commands must be run. Relative path to project_dir.
  • build_command : a list of succesive commands to run to build your project. Relative path to project_dir.
  • file_path : a list of all files to analyse. Relative path to project_dir.

See example file tests\MaliciousTest\mcd-config.toml.

To analyze the project's master branch, run the following command:

.\mcd.exe detectCommit -a=XXXXXXXXXX -c=c:\Users\A\mcd\tests\mcd-config.toml -b=master
Configuration file: c:\Users\A\mcd\tests\mcd-config.toml
