SCAN-VIEW(1)

πŸ“¦ version 11.1.0, in ubuntu jammy

πŸ’… scan-view β€” the manual page, bestie edition πŸ’…

okay so this is the manual page for scan-view, living in section 1 of the manual (User Commands, the iconic little corner of the man pages where the executables hang out). yes bestie, we're doing man pages now. it's giving study session. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

scan-view β€” the manual page for scan-view 11 ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the whole vibe. the usage goes a little something like this:

usage: scan-view [-h] [--host HOST] [--port PORT] [--debug]
[--auto-reload]

       [--no-browser] [--allow-all-hosts] <results directory>

and what IS it? it's the clang static analyzer results viewer. that's it. that's the whole job. it takes your analyzer results and shows them to you, slay. πŸ‘‘

πŸ“ positional arguments πŸ“

  • <results directory> β€” the directory full of results. you point at it, it does its thing. that's the deal. πŸ’–

✨ options ✨

  • -h, --help β€” shows this help message and then dips. exit stage left. no notes. πŸ™ˆ
  • --host HOST β€” which host interface to listen on. the default is 127.0.0.1, so by default it's staying home, cozy, not talking to the whole internet. (default=127.0.0.1) 🏠
  • --port PORT β€” which port to listen on. the default is 8181. (default=8181) πŸ”₯
  • --debug β€” prints extra debugging information. more words. more clues. we love a paper trail. πŸ”
  • --auto-reload β€” automatically updates the module for each request. every single request, bestie. it keeps itself fresh. ✨
  • --no-browser β€” doesn't open a web browser on startup. for when you want to open it yourself, in your own time, main character energy. 🚫🌐
  • --allow-all-hosts β€” allows connections from any host. and listen, this is the dramatic one: access is restricted to "127.0.0.1" by default. so flipping this on opens the door for everybody. do with that information what you will. πŸ’€

lowkey a vibe check: if you leave --allow-all-hosts off, only "127.0.0.1" gets in. that's the default for a reason, bestie. 🫢

that's the whole page, no crumbs left behind. this was scan-view version 11, and the page itself is dated January 2022 β€” so yeah, a little vintage, but she still ate. πŸ’œπŸŒˆβ­
