610
    ...         return "--lint", filename, "--config", config_file
611
612
    As you can see you don't need to copy additional keyword-arguments you
613
    introduced from ``create_arguments()`` to ``generate_config()`` and
614
    vice-versa. ``linter`` takes care of forwarding the right arguments to the
615
    right place, so you are able to avoid signature duplication.
616
617
    If you override ``process_output``, you have the same feature like above
618
    (auto-forwarding of the right arguments defined in your function
619
    signature).
620
621
    Note when overriding ``process_output``: Providing a single output stream
622
    (via ``use_stdout`` or ``use_stderr``) puts the according string attained
623
    from the stream into parameter ``output``, providing both output streams
624
    inputs a tuple with ``(stdout, stderr)``. Providing ``use_stdout=False``
625
    and ``use_stderr=False`` raises a ``ValueError``. By default ``use_stdout``
626
    is ``True`` and ``use_stderr`` is ``False``.

    Documentation:
629
    Bear description shall be provided at class level.
630
    If you document your additional parameters inside ``create_arguments``,
631
    ``generate_config`` and ``process_output``, beware that conflicting
632
    documentation between them may be overridden. Document duplicated
633
    parameters inside ``create_arguments`` first, then in ``generate_config``
634
    and after that inside ``process_output``.

638
639
    :param executable:
640
        The linter tool.
641
    :param use_stdin:
642
        Whether the input file is sent via stdin instead of passing it over the
643
        command-line-interface.
644
    :param use_stdout:
645
        Whether to use the stdout output stream.
646
    :param use_stderr:
647
        Whether to use the stderr output stream.
648
    :param config_suffix:
649
        The suffix-string to append to the filename of the configuration file
650
        created when ``generate_config`` is supplied. Useful if your executable
651
        expects getting a specific file-type with specific file-ending for the
652
        configuration file.
653
    :param executable_check_fail_info:
654
        Information that is provided together with the fail message from the
655
        normal executable check. By default no additional info is printed.
656
    :param prerequisite_check_command:
657
        A custom command to check for when ``check_prerequisites`` gets
658
        invoked (via ``subprocess.check_call()``). Must be an ``Iterable``.
659
    :param prerequisite_check_fail_message:
660
        A custom message that gets displayed when ``check_prerequisites``
661
        fails while invoking ``prerequisite_check_command``. Can only be
662
        provided together with ``prerequisite_check_command``.
663
    :param output_format:
664
        The output format of the underlying executable. Valid values are
665
666
        - ``None``: Define your own format by overriding ``process_output``.
667
          Overriding ``process_output`` is then mandatory, not specifying it
668
          raises a ``ValueError``.
669
        - ``'regex'``: Parse output using a regex. See parameter
670
          ``output_regex``.
671
        - ``'corrected'``: The output is the corrected of the given file. Diffs
672
          are then generated to supply patches for results.
673
674
        Passing something else raises a ``ValueError``.
675
    :param output_regex:
676
        The regex expression as a string that is used to parse the output
677
        generated by the underlying executable. It should use as many of the
678
        following named groups (via ``(?P<name>...)``) to provide a good
679
        result:
680
681
        - line - The line where the issue starts.
682
        - column - The column where the issue starts.
683
        - end_line - The line where the issue ends.
684
        - end_column - The column where the issue ends.
685
        - severity - The severity of the issue.
686
        - message - The message of the result.
687
        - origin - The origin of the issue.
688
        - additional_info - Additional info provided by the issue.
689
690
        The groups ``line``, ``column``, ``end_line`` and ``end_column`` don't
691
        have to match numbers only, they can also match nothing, the generated
692
        ``Result`` is filled automatically with ``None`` then for the
693
        appropriate properties.
694
695
        Needs to be provided if ``output_format`` is ``'regex'``.
696
    :param severity_map:
697
        A dict used to map a severity string (captured from the
698
        ``output_regex`` with the named group ``severity``) to an actual
699
        ``coalib.results.RESULT_SEVERITY`` for a result. Severity strings are
700
        mapped **case-insensitive**!
701
702
        - ``RESULT_SEVERITY.MAJOR``: Mapped by ``error``.
703
        - ``RESULT_SEVERITY.NORMAL``: Mapped by ``warning`` or ``warn``.
704
        - ``RESULT_SEVERITY.MINOR``: Mapped by ``info``.
705
706
        A ``ValueError`` is raised when the named group ``severity`` is not
707
        used inside ``output_regex`` and this parameter is given.
708
    :param diff_severity:
709
        The severity to use for all results if ``output_format`` is
710
        ``'corrected'``. By default this value is
711
        ``coalib.results.RESULT_SEVERITY.NORMAL``. The given value needs to be
712
        defined inside ``coalib.results.RESULT_SEVERITY``.
713
    :param result_message:
714
        The message-string to use for all results. Can be used only together
715
        with ``corrected`` or ``regex`` output format. When using
716
        ``corrected``, the default value is ``"Inconsistency found."``, while
717
        for ``regex`` this static message is disabled and the message matched
718
        by ``output_regex`` is used instead.
719
    :param diff_distance:
720
        Number of unchanged lines that are allowed in between two changed lines
721
        so they get yielded as one diff if ``corrected`` output-format is
722
        given. If a negative distance is given, every change will be yielded as
723
        an own diff, even if they are right beneath each other. By default this
724
        value is ``1``.
725
    :raises ValueError:
726
        Raised when invalid options are supplied.
727
    :raises TypeError:
728
        Raised when incompatible types are supplied.
729
        See parameter documentations for allowed types.
730
