What are you trying to accomplish?
A recent PR introduced the ability to add custom regexes to the
DetailsMenuMigration
linter to provide 3rd-party code a way to customize how the linter identifies violations. Unfortunately if the list of custom regexes is empty, the linter checks all code against an empty regex (eg.//i
), which matches every string and therefore always returnstrue
. This results in false-positives for every line of code in the file.Integration
No changes necessary in production.
Risk Assessment
What approach did you choose and why?
I modified the linter to skip matching with the custom regexes if the list of custom regexes is empty.
