Error finding results when output-name specified

[lewis-shell]

When the output-name parameter is set to anything other than "results" (e.g. using a config file), the action still looks for a file called results.json, which then causes an error to be logged in the console

To reproduce

kics-config.json:

{
  "output-name": "my-results"
}

Workflow file:

      - name: "Scan with KICS"
        uses: checkmarx/[email protected]
        with:
          path: "."
          config_path: kics-config.json
          platform_type: terraform
          output_path: kics-results
          output_formats: "json,sarif"

Error message:

Adding the code reference which has results.json hardcoded since the github action doesn't read output-name variable.

kics-github-action/src/main.js

Line 21 in 6d02dc9

function processOutputPath(output) {

Im having the same issue - have you found a solution?

Hi @toestreich and @lewis-shell,
I am glad to let you know that this issue is being addressed on the #106.
Now the KICS GitHub action will take into account the output name set on the config file.
