I am getting this strange errors from the sonar scanner in some js files

```
ERROR: Unable to parse file: file:///Users/mlostek/Projects/Skoove/skoove_IOs/ios_app/components/CircleImage.js
ERROR: Parse error at line 19 column 34:

 9:
10: isOnTablet ? (
11: imageStyle = [...imageStyle, styles.image_tablet]
12: ) : (
13: imageStyle = [...imageStyle, styles.image_phone]
14: );
15:
16: return (
17:
18: props.onlyImage
19: ? ()
                                     ^
20: : (
21:         
22:           
23:         
24: )
25:
26:
27: );
28: };
29:

```

Whats wrong with this line?  
Why is the scanner not able to scan that file?  
And Is it possible to show the “unchecked” files somehow in sonarcloud?

hello @mlostekk ,

I am not sure if the formatting is correct, there seems to be a lot of whitespace. Can you share the original file? (you can do that also privately, if sharing publicly is not an option)
