Ignoring files

For some of the code analysis tools, it is important to ignore some files within the plugin because they might not be fixable, like a third party library. The all code analysis commands in this project ignore files and directories listed in the thirdpartylibs.xml plugin file.

In addition, you can ignore additional files by defining IGNORE_PATHS and/or IGNORE_NAMES environment variables in your .travis.yml file. Example:

env:
 global:
  - MOODLE_BRANCH=MOODLE_29_STABLE
  - IGNORE_PATHS=vendor/widget,javascript/min-lib.js
  - IGNORE_NAMES=*-m.js,bad_lib.php
 matrix:
  - DB=pgsql
  - DB=mysqli

Both environment variables take a CSV value. For IGNORE_PATHS, it takes relative file paths to ignore. File paths can be a simple string like foo/bar or a regular expression like /^foo\/bar/. For IGNORE_NAMES, it takes file names to ignore. File names can be a simple string like foo.php, a glob like *.php or a regular expression like /\.php$/.
