Replacement of cucumber-json-formatter? Because of the warning that it is a virus/malware

[OSnuszka]

Current behavior

It tries to generate a json file - it needs cucumber-json-formatter to generate it correctly. Unfortunately when I try to download this exe file I get information that it is a type Trojan virus.

Without this file I get the following error:

I reported the problem on the cucumber-json-fromatter github and got the following response:
cucumber/common#1974

Desired behavior

Is it possible to use a tool other than? cucumber-json-formatter

Maybe the response from the link on GitHub suggests something:

No, there are no other tools. That your antivirus is giving you a false positive is unfortunate, but not really my problem.

Maybe the response from the link on GitHub suggests something:

I've asked for a clarification in cucumber/common#1916 (comment).

Hello @OSnuszka,

In plugins/index.js if you call the preprocessor with:
await cypressCucumberPreprocessor.addCucumberPreprocessorPlugin(on, config, {omitAfterRunHandler: true});

and your cypress-cucumber-preprocessor config has something like this

{
...
messages: {
    enabled: true,
    output: `cucumber-messages.ndjson`
  }
...
}

then you can catch up your ndjson with a gulp task like this

gulp.task('cucumber-json', (cb) => {
  exec('npx ndjson-to-json [path-to-ndjson]/cucumber-messages.ndjson -o [path-to-cucumberjson]/cucumber.json', (err, stdout, stderr) => {
    console.log(stdout);
    console.log(stderr);
    cb(err);
  })
})

You obviously need to install ndjson-to-json npm package too.

I think should be a similar issue.

I am trying to enable the JSON reporting, encounter this issue,

Package.json
"cypress": "^9.7.0",
"@badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor": "^10.0.2",

"cypress-cucumber-preprocessor": { "json": { "enabled": true}}
