How to suppress warning for a specific method with Intellij SonarLint plugin

Solution 1:

You can use //NOSONAR or @SuppressWarnings() but you need to specify the rule.

From the SonarQube documentation:

The //NOSONAR tag is useful to deactivate all rules at a given line but is not suitable to deactivate all rules (or only a given rule) for all the lines of a method or a class. This is why support for @SuppressWarnings("all") has been added to SonarQube.

SINCE 2.8 of Java Plugin, you can also use @SuppressWarnings annotation with a list of rule keys:

@SuppressWarnings("squid:S2078") or

@SuppressWarnings({"squid:S2078", "squid:S2076"}).

Solution 2:

You can Suppress an inspection in the editor it-self,

Refer to https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/disabling-and-enabling-inspections.html, It has various methods to get this done, there are many ways to customize the required behaviors.
