Is it possible to add rules for suite folder?

[lusheldon]

Hi, thanks for your working firstly. I'm trying to walk every keyword in the suite folder to find out similar keywords in different resource file. But I was not able to add rules base on suite folder class. I don't understand how to pass the folder class into apply method in the rule class. Is it possible to add rules for folder? Any reply would be greatly appreciated! @guykisel @boakley

It is not possible to write a rule for a folder; rflint was designed to work on files. However, if you pass a folder to rflint, it will automatically search every robot file in that folder.

hi @boakley, in relation to @lusheldon question. Is it possible to change the path of the builtin_rules and the site-rules? I have added the rflint folder in our GIT repository so that we'll have a central repo of the linter. Because before we have to manually "copy-paste" the custom rules on Python27\Lib\site-packages\rflint, on every local machines. What I did is this: I declared an Environment Variable RF_HOME = C:\rf-test builtin_rules = os.environ['RF_HOME'] + '/rflint/rules' site_rules = os.environ['RF_HOME'] + '/rflint/site-rules' but i'm having errors like this, so I guess I'm doing something wrong LOL Error occurred when trying to run RfLint analysis RED python session problem. Following exception has been thrown by python service: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\mluyun\AppData\Local\Temp\RobotTempDir8035181267158857483\robot_session_server.py", line 38, in inner result['result'] = func(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\Users\mluyun\AppData\Local\Temp\RobotTempDir8035181267158857483\robot_session_server.py", line 59, in inner return func(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\Users\mluyun\AppData\Local\Temp\RobotTempDir8035181267158857483\robot_session_server.py", line 255, in run_rf_lint raise RuntimeError('There is no rflint module installed for ' + sys.executable + ' interpreter') RuntimeError: There is no rflint module installed for C:\Python27\python.exe interpreter

TIA! 😄

P.S. I'm not really a programmer 😁 still learning python
