Check Source with PMD

To check all source Codecode using the Java Quickstart configuration, add the following to your build file:

@BuildCommand(summary = "Checks source code with PMD")
public void pmd() throws Exception {
    new PmdOperation()
        .fromProject(this)
        .execute();
}

./bld pmd test

To check the main source directory using a custom ruleset, Java Error Prone configuration, and failing on any violation.

@BuildCommand(value = "pmd-main", summary = "Checks main source code with PMD")
public void pmdMain() throws Exception {
    new PmdOperation()
            .fromProject(this)
            .failOnViolation(true)
            .inputPaths(srcMainDirectory())
            .ruleSets("config/pmd.xml", "category/java/errorprone.xml")
            .execute();
}

./bld compile pmd-main

Please check the PmdOperation documentation for all available configuration options.
