title: Maven findbugs:check - Output Summary Of Bugs
body: <p>Does anybody know how to configure the maven findbugs plugin to output a summary of the bugs to the console (similar to the pmd plugin)? </p>
  
  <p>At present findbugs:check just prints out how many bugs there are in total and I need to check the individual modules target/findbugs directory and each findbugs.xml file to fix the issues.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;plugin&gt;
  &lt;groupId&gt;org.codehaus.mojo&lt;/groupId&gt;
  &lt;artifactId&gt;findbugs-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
  &lt;version&gt;2.0.1&lt;/version&gt;                              
  &lt;configuration&gt;
          &lt;xmlOutput&gt;true&lt;/xmlOutput&gt;
          &lt;xmlOutputDirectory&gt;findbugsreports&lt;/xmlOutputDirectory&gt;
          &lt;findbugsXmlOutput&gt;true&lt;/findbugsXmlOutput&gt;
          &lt;findbugsXmlOutputDirectory&gt;target/site/findbugsreports&lt;/findbugsXmlOutputDirectory&gt;
          &lt;debug&gt;true&lt;/debug&gt;
  &lt;/configuration&gt; 
  &lt;/plugin&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Ideally it would be good to get a summary report back on the command line.  Any ideas?</p>
