Analyzer CLI ignoring analysis options excludes

[zoechi]

In WebStorm I don't get any errors shown, but from console I get

(polymer1) $ dartanalyzer --no-hints /*.dart

Seems from the command line excludes from .analysis_options are ignored (even with --options=.analysis_options. Is there a way to make this work from command line?

dartanalyzer --no-hints --options=.analysis_options */**.dart

I wanted to point out that in WebStorm it works as expected, and WebStorm doesn't report analyzer warnings from excluded directories.

Is there a suggested workaround for this issue? Our CI tests run dartanalyzer to make sure that everything is in order and right now they always fail due to some generated libraries.

[pq]

Thanks @enyo. The issue is that the exclude information in the options file is not getting properly processed in the command-line analyzer (though it is in the server which explains why it works in the IDE). There's not a great work-around at the moment unfortunately that doesn't include post-processing of analysis results on your end and that's pretty terrible. That said we are actively looking into this and expect to have it addressed in a dev build in the near term. Thanks for your patience in the meantime!

[enyo]

Thanks for your reply. Yes that's what I did now: I parse every hint/warning stdout and stderr output line and compare it with the exclude list in .analysis_options whether it should be ignored.
Looking forward to removing that code again :)

@pq looks like flutter analyze may have just run into this, see @chinmaygarde's bug above.

[zoechi]

looks similar to #25551, #26959

[pq]

Giving this a nudge as it's impacting command-line linting:

dart-lang/linter#389

@danrubel : I understand you're looking at migrating the CLI to using the new ContextBuilder and this would make sense to handle there?

[bwilkerson]

@pq I'm guessing that @danrubel isn't going to be able to look at this anytime soon.

@devoncarew This is now blocking us from running dartanalyzer over the analyzer_cli package on the bots.

Which version of dart will ship with this analyzer fix?

[kevmoo]

Which version of dart will ship with this analyzer fix?

1.25.0-dev.5.0

[devoncarew]

We may need to back-port this to 1.24.2.

[kevmoo]

We may need to backport this to 1.24.2.

Not against it in theory...if we think it'll be helpful

[enyo]

It's not in 1.24.3, is there still a plan of getting this in before 1.25.0?

[kevmoo]

It's not in 1.24.3, is there still a plan of getting this in before 1.25.0?

Not likely. You'll have to get on the 2.0.0-dev train...
