[BUG] Custom rule is not properly picked up when there is an app in the folder

[jmle]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [x] I have searched the existing issues

Konveyor version

0.5.3

Priority

Critical

Current Behavior

When specifying a custom rules directory in the command line with --rule, if the directory has also a folder with application data, ie the Coolstore app, the rule is not properly picked up:

.
├── ruleset.yaml
├── rule.yaml
└── test-data
    └── coolstore

If I remove the test-data directory, the rule works again.

Also, many tmp folders are created for some reason:

[...]
INFO[0001] creating temp ruleset                         name=img path=/tmp/analyze-rules-3378947653/test-data/coolstore/src/main/webapp/bower_components/patternfly/dist/img
[...]

Expected Behavior

Kantra (and/or the analyzer) should be able to search in a folder recursively for rules, ignoring everything that is not a rule, and the rule should be properly processed.

How Reproducible

Always (Default)

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a folder structure similar to the one specified in the "Current behavior" section. The additional rule should be correct.
2. Analyze an application with --rules <folder> and the proper targets.
3. See that the rule is not being picked up.

Environment

• OS: Fedora 40
• Kantra 0.5.3
• podman 5.2

Potentially we could ignore folders with certain names like data when recursively walking through the directories, at least once we have settled on a convention for dir names?
