Feature request for adding brakeman to linting

[henrytseng]

Your environment

• vscode-ruby version: 1.36.1 (1.36.1)
• Ruby version: ruby 2.6.3p62 (2019-04-16 revision 67580) [x86_64-linux-musl]
• Ruby version manager (if any): rvm
• VS Code version:
• Operating System: OSX
• Using language server? true

Expected behavior

Would love to add Brakeman (https://github.com/presidentbeef/brakeman#configuration-files) to the supported linters. Is that possible? Or would it not be considered a linter? We're using Codeclimate on our project.

Actual behavior

Looks like the current supported linters at this time are:

• ruby -wc
• rubocop
• ruby-lint
• reek
• fasterer
• debride

That list is actually for the old linter integration. Only rubocop, reek, and standard are being supported on the language server.

That being said, Brakeman seems like a good candidate for support. I'll take a look at what their JSON output looks like. Thanks for the request!

That would be awesome! Thanks.

version 5.0.0 - 2021-01-26 of brakeman added Sonarqube report format which might make this integration simpler
