To ignore rules in some lines

[nasu]

I would like to ignore rules in some lines. Are there any plans to adopt such a functions?

It assume that I set the rule of "tag-pair" and I have a file of following HTML's snippet.

<div class="item">
    <div class="item-name"><%= name %></div           // Oops! I forgot to write &gt; sign...
    <div class="item-price"><%= price %><%= unit %></div>
<!-- close-tag against "div class=item" is defined other snippets -->

In this case, I will find two errors of "tag-pair" in Line 2 and 5. But I want to skip the error of Line 5 because of expecting.

So I suppose how to write following.

<div class="item" data-htmlhint-ignore="tag-pair">
    <div class="item-name"><%= name %></div           // Oops! I forgot to write &gt; sign...
    <div class="item-price"><%= price %><%= unit %></div>
<!-- close-tag against "div class=item" is defined other snippets -->

And I can modify src/rules/tag-pair.js

HTMLHint(master)> git di src/
diff --git a/src/rules/tag-pair.js b/src/rules/tag-pair.js
index 060e941..454ca3f 100644

             }
         });

Would you consider it?
Thank you for your time.

HTMLHint only support html code, your code is template.

[nasu]

Thank you for your response. As you say, my code is a template. Don't you have a plan to support template - HTML snipet?

[yaniswang]

I have no idea to support template.
You can hint the html code after rendered.

[nasu]

Yes! I understood. Thanks! 😄

However, the true question is how can i ignore some lines?

[xianshenglu]

Is there any choices like <!--htmlhint disable-->, <!--htmlhint enable-->, <!--htmlhint disable-next-line --> etc ?

I think no, but I like the idea/syntax

[xianshenglu]

because eslint, stylelint all support such function and their syntax was all like this. Hope if can support it.

@xianshenglu I think the best idea is to open a new issue with title proposal, because this issue is old and closed for a long time
Also @thedaviddias is the admin of this project, hopefully he likes this idea too
I'm working on other projects and are not using html anymore, but I am active in comment sections like this
Maybe you can then provide a pull request and I can review it

#161 This proposal has already existed.

[Shinigami92]

in this case you should suggest your proposal there 😃
