@nvuillam @echoix what do you think?

@bdovaz there is an old PR about that -> #1701 , but it has many impacts and has never been completed
But I would accept the PR of course :)

@nvuillam I just brought the branch to this repository and merge main to bring it from past to present 😅

I will be working on it

@nvuillam when analyzing this feature I have a doubt that probably has no solution but I raise it.... Many linters in their default output do not differentiate by “log level” (error vs warning) you only get issues with no detail about this. To know that level of detail some have a way to change to other output formats where they already detail in depth this information.

The problem is that if we change the default output of the linters we make that the megalinter logs artifacts do not output in a friendly format for the user that checks it...

@bdovaz I think we can do something like:

• if cli_lint_warnings_count is set on the descriptor, count them
• if not, the default number of warnings remain 0

I think that SARIF methods should also be updated to count warnings as they count errors

Here, we could the number of errors, undepending their level

It needs to depending of what we want to count, filter with the num of items in result that have "level": "error" or "level": "warning"

@nvuillam I have quite advanced the PR, take a look if you want at what I have so far, I think I don't have much left to fix.
