SonarCloud sonar.exclusions not working still/again

SonarQube Cloud

  • SonarCloud (current), Azure DevOps SonarCloudPrepare Task 1.12.0, SonarCloudAnalyze Task 1.15.0
  • CI/CD: Azure DevOps Pipelines (YAML)
  • Language: JavaScript/TypeScript

Well, the usual problem: sonar.exclusions isn’t exclusioning anything.

We have an autogenerated TypeScript file at frontend/src/api/admin/api.ts that’s 40k lines that we want to exclude. Currently analyses are failing because this drives us over our 100KLOC limit.

The log from the SonarCloudAnalyze task shows the following:

04:42:37.898 INFO: Indexing files...

I have tried setting sonar.exclusions in the SonarCloud UI, and I have also tried setting it using the extraProperties options of the SonarCloudPrepare Task. Neither cause the analyzer to skip this file.

I have also tried to set sonar.exclusions by adding a .sonarcloud.properties file in the root of the git repository; that didn’t work either.
