How to obtain Qodana logs

Our support team, in some cases, may ask you to provide logs for investigation. Here is a guide on how to obtain them from different environments.

Local run

(taken from https://www.jetbrains.com/help/qodana/docker-image-configuration.html#docker-config-reference-overview-logs)

Docker

You can mount the $(pwd)/.qodana/results/ directory to the /data/results directory of the Docker image:

docker run \
   -v $(pwd):/data/project/ \
   -v $(pwd)/.qodana/results/:/data/results \
   -e QODANA_TOKEN="<cloud-project-token>" \
   jetbrains/qodana-<linter>

Once the Qodana run is complete, you can view log files in the $(pwd)/.qodana/results/ directory.

Qodana CLI

After running Qodana, in the project root run the qodana show -d command for opening the directory containing log files. Share the log folder.

CI/CDs:

GitHub Actions

set upload-result to true in the Qodana job config in the GitHub Action yaml file:

- name: 'Qodana Scan'
        uses: JetBrains/qodana-action@v2024.2
        env:
          QODANA_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.QODANA_TOKEN }}
        with:
          upload-result: true

Then run your Qodana job again. It will produce a qodana-report artifact, share the log folder from it.

Azure DevOps

set upload-result to true in the Qodana job config in azure-pipelines.yml file:

- task: QodanaScan@2024
  env:
    QODANA_TOKEN: $(QODANA_TOKEN)
  inputs:
    uploadResult: true

Then run your Qodana job again. It will produce a qodana-report artifact, share the log folder from it.

GitLab

To obtain logs from Qodana on GitLab, add to the qodana command in the script section: --results-dir=$CI_PROJECT_DIR/.qodana/results, i.e.

script:
      - qodana --save-report --results-dir=$CI_PROJECT_DIR/.qodana/results

And expose the results directory as an artifact. E.g.:

qodana:
   ... 
   artifacts:
      paths:
         - .qodana/results/
      expose_as: 'Qodana report'

Then run your Qodana job, and it should produce a Qodana report artifact that you can download. Share the log folder from it.
