perf.parse_result_overwritten

A warn rule, scope workflow. A parse/publish target is overwritten by a later unconditional task before anything reads it.

Synopsis

$ orion-server clippy ./definitions
warn[perf.parse_result_overwritten] a parse/publish target is overwritten by a later unconditional task before anything reads it

Description

A parse_json/parse_xml/publish_json/publish_xml target that a later unconditional task writes (or a path above it) before anything reads it.

Caveats

Silent when any step between has a computed or scoped read, reads the target, or is a connector or channel_call task. Silent when the overwriter is conditional, and when the workflow has a loop.
