Add a new output format option to print errors as GitHub Actions Workflow commands #17612
Description
Feature
Add a new --output=github option to format errors as Workflow commands, similar to --output=json added in #11396.
Pitch
For example, for this output in JSON format
$ mypy src --output=json
{"file": "src/mylib/client.py", "line": 759, "column": 20, "message": "Argument 1 to \"export_responses\" of \"Client\" has incompatible type \"str\"; expected \"int\"", "hint": null, "code": "arg-type", "severity": "error"}we'd get the following output in workflow command format
$ mypy src --output=json
::error file=src/mylib/client.py,line=759,col=20::(`arg-type`) Argument 1 to "export_responses" of "Client" has incompatible type "str"Related:

This would be super handy

@edgarrmondragon do you mean using the annotations feature?
wyardley commentedon Sep 13, 2024
I'm not the person who opened the issue, but yes, I think this would support allowing annotations, similar to
ruff check --output-format githubor using pylint with thepylint-actionsplugin.edgarrmondragon commentedon Sep 13, 2024
Yeah, these: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-what-your-workflow-does/workflow-commands-for-github-actions
Exactly!

A PR is up if anyone's interested: #17771

Based on this comment here (#11396 (comment)) I am not sure what the likelihood of this getting accepted will be.
(Until this comment I was hoping to have a code quality/gitlab output in mypy directly instead of relying on an extra plugin)

What's the status of this feature? I'd love to use it in my CI
