What's this?

This is a custom reporter for ktlint. It makes ktlint output an xml file in JUnit format.

Why on Earth would I need JUnit format?

Two words: GitLab CI (is that actually two words?). If you are using GitLab and you want to see your ktlint reports on the Pull Merge Request page, then you are welcome. Don't forget to publish the report via artifacts:reports:junit:.

OK, what do I do?

Simple as 1 2 3

1. Download ktlint-junit-reporter-1.0.jar from this repo's root. Or build it yourself, the sources are all in here.
2. Place the jar somewhere in your project (I prefer a folder called quality, as you'll see in step 3).
3. Add the reporter to ktlint params: ktlint --reporter=junit,artifact=quality/ktlint-junit-reporter-1.0.jar,output=build/ktlint-report-junit.xml

A jar file. Are you serious?

I was planning to deploy this plugin to MavenCental, but my laziness seems to have paid off: having custom reporters as maven plugins has been deprecated.
