would anyone be interested in baseline functionality in ktlint? happy to put up a PR but just gauging interest

[Sha Sha Chu]

Hey Josh! Not sure what you mean by baseline functionality?

[Josh Feinberg]

kind of like lint's baseline, the first time you run it generates a "baseline" file with all the errors. then it later runs it checks against the baseline and if the error is already in the baseline then it doesn't report it again

[Josh Feinberg]

its to help if you are adding ktlint into a project but don't want to fix all the errors right away

[Sha Sha Chu]

Ah, make sense. A naive version shouldn't be too hard to implement, either.

[Sha Sha Chu]

I'm actually wondering if somehow you could build a custom reporter that would do it

[Josh Feinberg]

no, i've got the code ready but not sure if it is worth merging into the main repo

[Sha Sha Chu]

Ah, ok. Definitely put it up and we can take a look

[Josh Feinberg]

the only problem i had with making the custom reporter is that if you add multiple reporters you still fail

[Josh Feinberg]

but my solution is a bit "hacky" ha

[Sha Sha Chu]

Haha yeah. Go ahead and put up a PR and we can discuss it there
