I want to customize StyleCop rules, for example, by default StyleCop requires all using directives to be added inside the namespace:
In my project, I have disabled this rule... now I want to to modify this rule (or add a new rule) which would require:
all using directives should be defined outside of namespaces
I have seen this document, which explains this customization can be done by adding StyleCop.json:
The easiest way to add the file is to open a file that violates rule
SA1633. This is the rule that requires a file header (e.g., a
copyright notice). Press “CTRL + .” and you’ll see an option to add
the file:
And then this can be added to StyleCop.json:
"orderingRules": {
"usingDirectivesPlacement": "outsideNamespace"
}
"CTRL + ." does not open any quick action for me, and I am not clear how/where I should add StyleCop.Json to my project?
Answer
The problem was I had installed, StyleCop using StyleCop Installer.
This document is expecting that StyleCop is installed using StyleCop.Analyzers Nuget package.
I am not sure how to Customize StyleCop, when installed using StyleCop Installer, but according to Wikipedia, StyleCop.Analyzers is the best option, from VS 2015 and going forward.
