## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
```shell copy
|
|
codeql resolve extractor --language=<lang> <options>...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
\[Deep plumbing] Determine the extractor pack to use for a given
|
|
language.
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
### Primary Options
|
|
|
|
#### `-l, --language=<lang>`
|
|
|
|
\[Mandatory] The name of the extractor to locate.
|
|
|
|
#### `--search-path=<dir>[:<dir>...]`
|
|
|
|
A list of directories under which extractor packs may be found. The
|
|
directories can either be the extractor packs themselves or directories
|
|
that contain extractors as immediate subdirectories.
|
|
|
|
If the path contains multiple directory trees, their order defines
|
|
precedence between them: if the target language is matched in more than
|
|
one of the directory trees, the one given first wins.
|
|
|
|
The extractors bundled with the CodeQL toolchain itself will always be
|
|
found, but if you need to use separately distributed extractors you need
|
|
to give this option (or, better yet, set up `--search-path` in a
|
|
per-user configuration file).
|
|
|
|
(Note: On Windows the path separator is `;`).
|
|
|
|
#### `--just-check`
|
|
|
|
Don't print any output, but exit with code 0 if the extractor is found,
|
|
and code 1 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
#### `--format=<fmt>`
|
|
|
|
Select output format. Choices include:
|
|
|
|
`text` _(default)_: Print the path to the found extractor pack to
|
|
standard output.
|
|
|
|
`json`: Print the path to the found extractor pack as a JSON string.
|
|
|
|
`betterjson`: Print details about the found extractor pack as a JSON
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
### Common options
|
|
|
|
#### `-h, --help`
|
|
|
|
Show this help text.
|
|
|
|
#### `-J=<opt>`
|
|
|
|
\[Advanced] Give option to the JVM running the command.
|
|
|
|
(Beware that options containing spaces will not be handled correctly.)
|
|
|
|
#### `-v, --verbose`
|
|
|
|
Incrementally increase the number of progress messages printed.
|
|
|
|
#### `-q, --quiet`
|
|
|
|
Incrementally decrease the number of progress messages printed.
|
|
|
|
#### `--verbosity=<level>`
|
|
|
|
\[Advanced] Explicitly set the verbosity level to one of errors,
|
|
warnings, progress, progress+, progress++, progress+++. Overrides `-v`
|
|
and `-q`.
|
|
|
|
#### `--logdir=<dir>`
|
|
|
|
\[Advanced] Write detailed logs to one or more files in the given
|
|
directory, with generated names that include timestamps and the name of
|
|
the running subcommand.
|
|
|
|
(To write a log file with a name you have full control over, instead
|
|
give `--log-to-stderr` and redirect stderr as desired.)
|
|
|
|
#### `--common-caches=<dir>`
|
|
|
|
\[Advanced] Controls the location of cached data on disk that will
|
|
persist between several runs of the CLI, such as downloaded QL packs and
|
|
compiled query plans. If not set explicitly, this defaults to a
|
|
directory named `.codeql` in the user's home directory; it will be
|
|
created if it doesn't already exist.
|
|
|
|
Available since `v2.15.2`.
