macros

In this article, you’ll learn more about the rule type macros. See the table below:

Rule

macros

Description

Control which macros can be used by either allow- or block-listing macros.

Ignore pages with label

scq-ignore-macros

Configuration options:

To specify a macro in your config options you have to use its internal name. This name can be different to the name shown in the editor. Use this list of internal macro names to do so.

allowed

List of macro names that are allowed to be used exclusively. Every macro not in this list will be reported in the quality report.

The value of this property can either be a plain string that specifies the macro name or can be a macro + parameters that should be allowed (see examples below).

blocked

List of macro names that are not allowed to be used. Every macro in this list will be reported in the quality report. If a macro is listed on both the allowed and blocked list it will be blocked.

The value of this property can either be a plain string that specifies the macro name or can be a macro + parameters that should be blocked (see examples below).
