Enable the Plugin

To enable Brakeman analysis, add the following to your .codeclimate.yml configuration file:

plugins:
  brakeman:
    enabled: true

More information about the CLI is available in the README here: https://github.com/codeclimate/codeclimate

Configure the Plugin

The Brakeman engine supports Brakeman configuration files (and ignore files) as described in the Brakeman documentation.

Sub-Directory Support

🚧

Sub-directory Support

If your application exists in a sub-directory, you can specify the sub-directory as an "app_path" in your config block. For example, if your rails app lives at "app/our_repo/", you would specify the following in your .codeclimate.yml:

plugins:
  brakeman:
    enabled: true
    config:
        app_path: app/our_repo

Understand the Plugin
