Limit Linter to Specific Files or Patterns

See original GitHub issue

Can a setting be added to use cfn-lint extension to lint specific GLOB patterns? I would like to set yaml.validate VS Code setting to enable for non-CloudFormation templates.

It would be useful to exclude specific patterns as well. In my case, I use Serverless Framework to do deploys, and rely on this VSCode plugin + cfn-python-lint to do validation of the yml resources. This works reasonably well, except that the plugin tries to be smart and runs linting on the autogenerated .serverless/*.json files, which contains a json file that’s not a CloudFormation template but seems to be picked as such.

A simple way to ignore a path via e.g. plugin settings would be great for my use case. A better way is for the plugin to take into account the .cfnlintrc that I have defined in the workspace root, in the same way as the cfn-lint command does when I run it there. This also addresses the use case mentioned in the top comment.

Thoughts?

@kddejong I normally use YAML exclusively for CFN configs anyways, so it wasn’t all that painful to just disable.

@PatMyron Nothing else shows up in my list of JSON formatters when I ran “Format document with…”, and it’s extremely unlikely this is being caused by any other extension.
