Exclude a file (library) from inspection

Hi Oren,

1. Create separate scope (Settings | Scopes) to include such file(s)
2. Settings | Inspections:

• select inspection you want to disable
• right click and choose "Add scope" -- now you can disable this particular inspection (or configure it differently, if such inspections has extra options) just for that scope.

Thank you Andriy :)

This removes some erros, but not all since they stem from jsLint.
In addition, having the files in the project also affects the code coverage (using builtin jsTestDriver), i.e. I can never get to 100%.

Cheers,
Oren

This is similar to what I want to do, but what I'm looking for is excluding certain files from the "ctrl-click to go to declaration" feature.  Sencha Touch requires you to structure your app a certain way.  You wind up with a folder with subfolders with all the various javascript units for each object.  But you also have several single javascript files that are all the units in the library together.  When I ctrl-click, I want it to pop up with the single units, not the huge library files.  I followed the directions for adding a scope and removing those files from it, but they still appear in the ctrl-click popups.

That's completely different. I think you need to look at JavaScript libraries functionality (check "Settings | JavaScript ..." -- should be there).

Check the blog as well -- it has useful articles there, for example: http://blog.jetbrains.com/webide/2012/03/new-in-4-0-more-convenient-javascript-libraries-configuration/

Thanks for the reply.  It's probably not quite as different as you think.  I don't know if you're familiar with out they do things in Sencha Touch 2 and onwards, but they pull in the whole javascript library as a subdirectory under your project.  So it's all a self-contained thing.  So I might have:

ProjectName
ProjectName\app
ProjectName\app\controller
ProjectName\app\view
ProjectName\touch
ProjectName\touch\src
ProjectName\touch\src\core
ProjectName\touch\src\dataview

etc.

In the ProjectName\touch directory, there are four files: sencha-touch.js, sencha-touch-debug.js, sencha-touch-all.js, sencha-touch-all-debug.js that contain in a single file all the files in all the subdirectories of ProjectName\touch\src.

The annoying thing is when I click to go to a declaration, it mixes all the hits in those sencha-touch*.js files with all the individual files like List.js or Button.js that are buried down in the subdirectories of ProjectName\touch\src.

Does that make sense?

I'm not working with JavaScript myself much -- just basic jQuery usage + jQuery plugins (nothing more). So .. yes -- I'm not familiar Sencha Touch library and how it works (file structure etc).

As I understand you want to exclude some files from being indexed at all (so it is not used for code completion or whatever), right ? If so -- then marking those all-in-one files as Plain Text (special command available via right click in Projevt View) should do what you want.

That works for me!  Maybe there's a "better" way of doing it (like if I ever actually did care about opening those files and seeing javascript highlighting, etc.), but for now I'm happy.

Thanks!

Currently there is no other way of avoiding file from being indexed while still having it as part of the project (not excluded completely).

Well, I'd actually be fine to exclude those files from the project.  But as far as I can tell you can only exclude folders, not files, and I need the subfolders underneat it so I'm stuck.  Woudl be nice if the project folder exclusions allowed you to choose recursive/non-recursive like the scope exclusions do.  Though I can see how that would be a little trickier.

You can exclude by file name, but it will affect ALL projects not only current one (Settings | File Types -- that field on the bottom) and therefore this is not a real option in vast majority of cases.
