normalize_exclusions: Normalize lint exclusions

In lintr: A 'Linter' for R Code

Normalize lint exclusions

Description

Normalize lint exclusions

Usage

normalize_exclusions(x, normalize_path = TRUE, root = getwd(), pattern = NULL)

Arguments

x	Exclusion specification A character vector of filenames or directories relative to root. Interpreted as globs, see Sys.glob(). A named list of integers specifying lines to be excluded per file A named list of named lists specifying linters and lines to be excluded for the linters per file.
normalize_path	Should the names of the returned exclusion list be normalized paths? If FALSE, they will be relative to root.
root	Base directory for relative filename resolution.
pattern	If non-NULL, only exclude files in excluded directories if they match pattern. Passed to list.files() if a directory is excluded.

Value

A named list of file exclusions. The names of the list specify the filenames to be excluded.

Each file exclusion is a possibly named list containing line numbers to exclude, or the sentinel Inf for completely excluded files. If the an entry is named, the exclusions only take effect for the linter with the same name.

If normalize_path is TRUE, file names will be normalized relative to root. Otherwise the paths are left as provided (relative to root or absolute). That also means existence is not checked.
