-x html_report=${user_dir}/report/swa_report.html

Usage: Basic

Applicable steps: report

This option specifies the file containing the HTML-formatted report generated by the swa

report command. This is a single file with internal hyperlinks. The HTML report may be printed

to standard output using the stdout_report_type option.

You may use ${user_dir} at the beginning of this option. It will be replaced with the value

of the user_dir option (which defaults to $HOME/.swa).

-x https_proxy=${proxy}

Usage: Advanced

Applicable steps: catalog, download

This option specifies the proxy host and port (with optional HTTP basic authentication username

and password) for accessing content using the HTTPS protocol. No proxy information is specified

by default.

The following format is used:

service://[user:password@]proxy-server:port

For example: https_proxy=http://web-proxy.mycompany.com:8088

If a username and password are specified as authentication credentials to your proxy server,

HTTP basic authentication is used, which is a clear-text protocol, (that is, your password might

be visible to others on your network). Also, credentials specified on the command-line are

visible to other local users, and access to credentials stored in extended option files are

determined by their permissions. If your proxy server requires another type of authentication,

see the -x download_cmd option.

You may use ${proxy} for this option value. It will be replaced with the value of the proxy

option (which is not set by default).

-x http_proxy=${proxy}

Usage: Advanced

Applicable steps: catalog, download

This option specifies the proxy host and port (with optional HTTP basic authentication username

and password) for accessing content using the HTTP protocol. No proxy information is specified

by default.

The following format is used:

service://[user:password@]proxy-server:port

For example: http_proxy=http://web-proxy.mycompany.com:8088

The HTTP protocol is the default protocol used to download certificate revocation lists. See the

crl_url option for more details.

You may use ${proxy} for this option value. It will be replaced with the value of the proxy

option (which is not set by default).

-x ignore_file=${user_dir}/ignore

Usage: Basic

Applicable steps: analyze

This option specifies files containing regular expressions that indicate which issues to ignore.

Each issue is matched by a regular expression (see regexp(5)) and is ignored by the analysis.

That is, regardless if the host or depot being analyzed has the identified issue, that issue will

not appear on the report. In addition, software will not be selected for download to address

the issue. The software might still be selected to address a different issue.
