vuls report -to-localfile not writing

[CA-dfox]

Hello,

I am trying to get vuls to write the results to a file in JSON. The command I am using is:
vuls report -config=/usr/share/vuls-data/config237 -format-json -to-localfile.
There is no file written anywhere that I can locate. Where is the output written to? The documentation is not very clear on this option.

Is it placed under <results-dir>/<scan datetime> with <server name>.json?
e.g.

$ vuls report --help
...
-results-dir string
    	/path/to/results (default "/home/mainek00n/github/github.com/MaineK00n/vuls/results")
...

$ ls /home/mainek00n/github/github.com/MaineK00n/vuls/results/2022-05-20T16:02:44+09:00/
vuls-target.json

For your information, the current vuls generates scan results in json format without any options(-to-localfile -format-json).

Thanks for that answer!

I wasn't looking at the date/time stamp or size to notice a change. Just that the JSON files were still JSON files.
