Today Sonarlint seems to always be enabled by default.
I wish it would be possible to configure if I want Sonarlint to be default opt-out or opt-in, not every project I make needs Sonarlint coverage (adds extra delays, startup time, seems to slow things down…)
I want to us SonarLint for my important projects, but for test-projects, experiements, I don’t need it.
So I want it to be a “checkbox” or a simple project settings to control this.
But at the same time, I don’t wan to have to add some random config file to every project where I don’t want to use it.
Hello and welcome to our community,
Thank you for raising this. We don’t have a feature to make the SonarLint Plugin opt-in for now, but we’ll keep a record of your request and keep looking for similar ones. Maybe file exclusions can help temporarily exclude files and certain folders. You can also disable the plugin temporarily and restart the IDE.
Meanwhile, we are interested in more details on the delays and slowdowns you’re experiencing if you could provide some examples.
