# command.description

Code Analyzer gives you the ability to configure settings that modify Code Analyzer's behavior, to override the tags and severity levels of rules, and to configure the engine specific settings. Use this command to see the current state of this configuration and to save this state to a YAML-formatted file that you can modify to our needs.

Use this command to see the current state of this configuration. You can also save this state to a YAML-formatted file that you can modify for your needs.

To apply a custom configuration with Code Analyzer, either keep your custom configuration settings in a 'code-analyzer.yml' file located in the current working directory from which you are executing commands, or specify the location of your custom configuration file to each of the Code Analyzer commands via the `--config-file` flag.

Use the --workspace flag to display only the configuration associated with the rules that apply to the files that make up your workspace. Typically, a workspace is a single project folder that contains all your files. But it can also consist of one or more folders, one or more files, and use glob patterns (wildcards). If you specify this flag multiple times, then your workspace is the sum of the files and folders.

This command uses the type of file in the workspace, such as JavaScript or Typescript, to determine the rules to list. For example, if your workspace contains only JavaScript files, the command doesn't list TypeScript rules. The command uses a file's extension to determine what kind of file it is, such as ".ts" for TypeScript.

Some engines may be configured to add additional rules based on what it finds in your workspace. For example, if you set the engines.eslint.auto_discover_eslint_config value of your code-analyzer.yml file to true, then supplying your workspace allows the "eslint" engine to examine your files in order to find ESLint configuration files that could potentially add in additional rules.

You can combine different criteria using colons to further filter the list; the colon works as an intersection. For example, "--rule-selector eslint:Security" reduces the output to only contain the configuration state associated with the rules from the "eslint" engine that have the "Security" tag. To add multiple rule selectors together (a union), specify the --rule-selector flag multiple times, such as "--rule-selector eslint:Recommended --rule-selector retire-js:3".

If this flag is not specified, then the 'Recommended' tag rule selector will be used.
If you don't specify this flag, then the command uses the "Recommended" tag rule selector.
