Synopsis
codeql pack ls <options>... -- <dir>Description
[Experimental] [Deep plumbing] List the CodeQL packages rooted at this directory. This directory must contain a qlpack.yml or .codeqlmanifest.json file.
Primary options
<dir>
The root directory of the package or workspace, defaults to the current working directory. If this parameter points to a directory containing a qlpack.yml, then this operation will run on only that CodeQL package. If this parameter points to a directory containing a codeql-workspace.yml, then this operation will run on all CodeQL packages in the workspace.
Options for configuring which CodeQL packs to apply this command to.
--format=<fmt>
Select output format, either text (default) or json.
--groups=[-]<group>[,[-]<group>...]
List of CodeQL pack groups to include or exclude from this operation. A qlpack in the given workspace is included if:
- It is in at least one of the groups listed without a minus sign (this condition is automatically satisfied if there are no groups listed without a minus sign), and
- It is not in any group listed with a minus sign
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.)
