Research direction
Start by reviewing settings.psd1 and the existing handling of Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute, then check the RuleDocumentation folder and the reported VSCode Problems behavior. Done means a single script can disable PSScriptAnalyzer or suppress all rules from within that file without adding its path to global settings.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
- Slack Community Chat: https://powershell.slack.com (you can sign-up at http://slack.poshcode.org/ for an invite)
- Also have a look at the
RoleDocumentationfolder for more information on each rule:
https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer/tree/development/RuleDocumentation
^ These links either isn't relevant anymore (first one, it's moved to Discord, right?), or does not work (the two others)
Say I have a script I'm just using for inspiration, I have no plans of iterating and improving it.
We can use [Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute()] to supress one rule. We can not use wildcard ( [Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('*','')] ) to suppress all rules, I've tried.
Is it possible to disable PSSA or suppress all rules for one script/file, from inside that file? I don't want to hardcode paths in global PSSA settings.
To get PSSA and VSCode "Problems" tab to stay quiet I now have all these in top of the script:
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSAvoidUsingConvertToSecureStringWithPlainText','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSAvoidUsingInvokeExpression','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSAvoidUsingWriteHost', '', Justification = 'Used to output text with color')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSReviewUnusedParameter','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSUseApprovedVerbs','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSUseLiteralInitializerForHashtable','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSUseShouldProcessForStateChangingFunctions','')]
[Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSUseSingularNouns','')]
