Brakeman Pro has a number of options not currently available via the desktop interface.
However, Brakeman Pro will honor Brakeman configuration files in the applications it scans.
The default location for a Brakeman configuration file is in config/brakeman.yml.
The easiest way to generate a Brakeman configuration file is to run either the Brakeman Pro Engine or Brakeman OSS with the desired options and ask it to generate the configuration.
For example:
brakeman -C -x UnscopedFind --skip-libs --add-libs-path extra/libs
Would output:
---
:skip_checks:
- CheckUnscopedFind
:skip_libs: true
:additional_libs_path:
- extra/libs
Engine Paths
To help Brakeman Pro find Rails engines in custom directories, use the engine_paths option. To include all subdirectories use *.
For example:
---
:engine_paths:
- my_engines/*
- path/to/engine
