Global Script Analysis Settings File

"powershell.scriptAnalysis.settingsPath": "PSScriptAnalyzerSettings.psd1"

By default language server looks up script analysis settings in workspace folders, only.

• A given relative path is resolved with workspace folders as root.
• An absolute path can be specified to force usage of a certain settings file.

To provide both a global fallback and project specific files ...

1. specify an absolute path in LSP-PowerShellEditorServices.sublime-settings.

   {
      "settings":
      {
         "powershell.scriptAnalysis.settingsPath": "${packages}/User/PSScriptAnalyzerSettings.psd1",
      },
   }

2. specify a relative path in project specific settings via <My Project>.sublime-project.

   {
      "folders": [
         {
            "path": ".",
         },
      ],
      "settings":
      {
         "LSP":
         {
            "PowerShellEditorServices": {
               "settings": {
                  "powershell.scriptAnalysis.settingsPath": "PSScriptAnalyzerSettings.psd1",
               },
            },
         },
      },
   }
