Philipp Ottlinger reassigned RAT-259:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Philipp Ottlinger)
> Allow configuration of files to be scanned for CLI module
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: RAT-259
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-259
> Project: Apache Rat
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cli
> Affects Versions: 0.13
> Reporter: Philipp Ottlinger
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> After talks at ApacheCon 2019 in Berlin [~higrys][~potiuk] asked for a
> possibility to specify the files that need to be scanned.
> This could be added as a new CLI option that specifies a file to read from.
> Each line will contain one file that RAT scans with its default configuration
> (as the current CLI scan does).
> Thus a possible run would be:
> {code}
> java -jar rat.jar -scan myfiles.txt
> {code}
> "-scan" will be an exclusive option, thus all other existing
> exclusions options will not be allowed, when this option is used.
> myfile.txt may contain comments (starting with "#") or empty lines, all else
> will be treated as files.
