Exclude doesn't work with filenames in the regexp

[schoentoon]

I'm trying to exclude the global variable check on the cmd/ directory. I thought about using the exclude config for this, however cmd\/.+is a global variable regex doesn't seem to work for this as it only seems to match against the actual message from the linter and not the file/line number.

Please include the following information:

1. Version of golangci-lint: golangci-lint --version
golangci-lint has version 1.12 built from 7836034 on 2018-11-07T09:03:53Z
2. Config file: cat .golangci.yml

[run]
tests = false

[linters]
enable-all = true
disable = ["typecheck", "goconst", "goimports"]

[issues]
exclude = [ 
  "cmd\/.+is a global variable"
]

3. Go environment: go version && go env

hi!
it's the nice feature to have, pull requests are welcome (we need to change just exclude processor and add needed unit tests).

Maybe skip-files option can help you while it's not ready.

I don't want to skip all linters on cmd/ just this specific one. I'll see on Monday if I can build something into it.

see exclude-rules: it's what you want
