How do you tell ktlint in android to exclude specific paths in the project?

Question

Currently when I want to format my code, I run this in the terminal in my android studio directory

https://github.com/pinterest/ktlint

./gradlew ktlintFormat

This command works great, but recently I added some folders into my project and the code in there is being checked by the ktlintFormat command. I wish to exclude those folders from being checked. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Answer 1

ktlint {
    filter {
        exclude("**/generated/**")
        include("**/kotlin/**")
    }
}
