The issue arises when I move the detekt-baseline.xml file from its default path (project/app/detekt-baseline.xml) to a new location (project/config/detekt/detekt-baseline.xml). about detekt HOT 3 CLOSED

Can you provide a reproducer? Which detekt version are you using? Which version of AS? How are you running the task from AS?

from detekt.

Also in your description you mention two different commands:

• gradle app:detekt (running in AS)
• ./gradlew detekt (running from CLI)

Please make sure you're using the same commands in CLI and AS when you're investigating this issue.

You also seem to be using projectDir in your config, please make very sure that it's pointing to the right location after you move the file.

Android studio version - Koala | 2024.1.1 Canary 5
detekt version - 1.23.3

I have resolved this issue - by adding the path on both the build.gradle file (root and app)

The following path has been included in the build.gradle file at the app level.

detekt {
    config.setFrom("../config/detekt/detekt.yml") // point to your custom config defining rules to run, overwriting default 
    baseline = file("../config/detekt/detekt-baseline.xml") // a way of suppressing issues before introducing detekt
}

The following path has been included in the build.gradle file at the project level.

detekt {
    config.setFrom("$projectDir/config/detekt/detekt.yml") // point to your custom config defining rules to run, overwriting 
    baseline = file("$projectDir/config/detekt/detekt-baseline.xml") // a way of suppressing issues before introducing detekt
}

Now both worked - From Android Studio gradle tool and command line.

Thanks!
