Disable rule in sonar

Question

I want to disable a rule from Sonar so it doesn't show the results in the web page. In my case I want to hide (or not capture) the results about trailing comments.

Is it posible to configure it somewhere?

Thanks.

Answer 1

The right way to do is to put something like this on sonar-project.properties file per project:

sonar.issue.ignore.multicriteria=e1,e2
# tab characters should not be used
sonar.issue.ignore.multicriteria.e1.ruleKey=squid:S00105
sonar.issue.ignore.multicriteria.e1.resourceKey=**/*.java
# right curly braces should be on a new line
sonar.issue.ignore.multicriteria.e2.ruleKey=squid:RightCurlyBraceStartLineCheck
sonar.issue.ignore.multicriteria.e2.resourceKey=**/*.java

Answer 2

You have to remove this rule in the quality profile that you are using to analyse your project.

Please refer to the documentation that describes all this: Quality Profiles in Sonar.
