can eslint be made aware of things to ignore?

I imagine the answer is no, until eslint/eslint/issues/9844 is approved.

I'm also certain you already envision a time when the rules in eslintrc-todo.yml can be ignored by eslint so the results you get do not include anything in the todo file.

Also didn't see this until now (shakes fist at Gmail)! Yes, I ran into the problem where if you run the app when you already have a eslintrc-todo.yml file in the extends array, then it generates nothing... so what I could do is drop that entry from the baseConfig object before running it.

you are suggesting what sounds like a great approach, but what I really meant was it would be great if eslint (plain) could be made aware of the todo file and not count those errors. As I said above, it would require eslint code changes for this to happen, so ... probably nothing can be done quickly.

Hey, so I'm finally getting back to this, and I think this could be solved if you use the -o option, which then overrides the setting for all the todo items to off. They won't show up even as warnings at that point. Does that get at what you want?
