Sonarlint vscode plugin settings.json config options to enable/disable linting per language

What are you trying to accomplish?

  • Enable/disable sonarlint on a per-language basis.

What’s your specific coding challenge in developing your plugin?
Regex of filenames should not be the only way to disable sonarlint.

Fundamentally, there should be a list of languages that sonarlint can support, and there should be config options to enable/disable via a checkmark, which languages the user would like use sonarlint for. IMO its too invasive of a default to assume users want sonarlint to lint all languages.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for sharing this issue. It’s not on our roadmap at the moment, but we are keeping a record of all requests for improving the experience of language analysis exclusion. I’ll update this thread if any update
