# Code Analyzer Command Reference (Retired)

This command reference contains information about Salesforce Code Analyzer commands and their flags. 

## Get Started

To scan your code and output any violations found to a results file, run:

- `sf scanner run --target somefile.js --outfile results.html`

### Replace these values:

- `somefile.js`: The source code location.
- `results.html`: The output format.

To scan your code with a specific engine, run

- `sf scanner run --target /some/dir --engine cpd`

### Replace these values:

- `/some/dir`: The source code location.
- `cpd`: The engine or engines to run.

## CI/CD Integration

To continuously improve your code, integrate Code Analyzer results into your CI/CD tool. Your tool can interpret those violations and act on them.

## Graph Engine

To scan your code with Graph Engine data-flow analysis, run:

- `sf scanner run dfa --target ./myproject/main/default/classes/*.cls --projectdir ./myproject/`

### Replace these values:

- `./myproject/main/default/classes/*.cls`: The source code location.
- `./myproject/`: The root project directory.
