Error parsing filter config file

Title

Error parsing filter config file

Functional impact

Metadata cannot be generated, thus a build is not possible.

Minimal repro steps

1. Include this line into the config file, section metadata: "filter": "filterConfig.yml"
2. Create a file named “filterConfig.yml” with the following content:

apiRules:
- include:
	uidRegex: ^Fsd\.HuaDataGenerator\.Application$
- exclude:
	uidRegex: ^Fsd\.HuaDataGenerator$

Alternatively, the following content produces the same result:

apiRules:
- include:
	uid: Fsd.HuaDataGenerator.Application
- exclude:
	uid: Fsd.HuaDataGenerator

Expected result

Metadata generation without error.

Actual result

The following error shows up: [17-07-14 02:09:12.808]Info:Config file docfx.json found, start generating metadata… [17-07-14 02:09:15.736]Error:Error extracting metadata for /src/HuaDataGenerator/HuaDataGenerator.csproj,/src/TestHuaDataGen/TestHuaDataGen.csproj: Error parsing filter config file filterConfig.yml: (Line: 3, Col: 1, Idx: 23) - (Line: 3, Col: 2, Idx: 24): While scanning for the next token, find character that cannot start any token.

@vwxyzh Now the code as published above works 😃 Don’t know why. Maybe due to the replacement of tabs by spaces in the config file.

@vwxyzh Also this code does not work:

apiRules:
- include:
  uidRegex: ^Fsd\.HuaDataGenerator\.Application$
  uidRegex: ^Fsd\.HuaDataGenerator\.IHuaDevice$
- exclude:
  uidRegex: ^Fsd\.HuaDataGenerator\.HuaDevice$
  uidRegex: ^TestHuaDataGen\.
