Claude Warren commented on RAT-259: ----------------------------------- [~potiuk] Would you please download the latest RAT-0.17-SNAPSHOT and verify that it meets your requirements. There are a number of changes to the include/exclude options Please run "–help" for a list of all the various include/exclude options and parameters available for commands. For the simplest case I think the following command line options will suffice: * --input-exclude "**" * --input-include-file <file with file name to scan> Please let me know if this meets your requirements so that I can close this issue. > 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: Sub-task > Components: Client - cli > Affects Versions: 0.13 > Reporter: Philipp Ottlinger > Assignee: Claude Warren > Priority: Major > Labels: documentation-update > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
