[Bug]: Cspell is reading HTML classes

[aakashgill]

Hi

I tried this tool and it worked well. It's able to scan the code and giving errors if any incorrect spelling was there. But I'm not sure if it's supposed to read the class attribute or not inside HTML.

• [x] runtime - command-line tools

Tool I've used to check spellings

• [x] cspell -- the command-line spelling tool

Version: 6.31.1 OS: Macos Monterey Version: 12.5.1

Bug Description

I'm getting errors in the class names that some of the spellings are incorrect. Since I use ACSS for class names, all the names are utility-first classes and not an actual word.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. yarn add cspell
2. I cspell task in package.json "cspell": "cspell 'newhome.php'"
3. yarn run cspell
4. See error in screenshot below

Expected behavior

To avoid reading the class or ID attribute in HTML so that I don't manually have to restrict some utility-classes.

@aakashgill,

By design, the spell checker checks the entire file. It is possible to use a regular expression to tell the spell check to skip things, ignoreRegExpList.

My suggestion would be to create a custom dictionary to contains your class names, instead of trying to ignore them.

[Jason3S]

The HTML dictionary defines a Regular Express to match against class names: HTML-class.

It is possible to use this in PHP:

cspell.json

{
  "languageSettings": [
    { "languageId": "php", "locale": "*", "ignoreRegExpList": ["HTML-class"] }
  ]
}
