How to Configure Settings for NamedArgumentsAnalyzer

OnlyForRecords is a boolean ExcludedMethodNames is a comma-separated list of method names yu want to exclude from the analyzer.

the following list of method names are excluded by default:Where, Select, FirstOrDefault, First, Any, OrderBy, OrderByDescending, GroupBy, ToList, ToArray, Contains, ElementAt, ElementAtOrDefault,IsNullOrEmpty, IsNullOrWhiteSpace

You can configure the OnlyForRecords and ExcludedMethodNames settings using an .editorconfig file. Here's how to do it:

Option 1: Using .editorconfig File

1. Create or open an .editorconfig file in the root of your solution or project.
2. Add the following configuration entries:

# Named Arguments Analyzer Configuration
[*.{cs,vb}]

# Configure OnlyForRecords option
dotnet_diagnostic.PNA1000.OnlyForRecords = true  # or false

# Configure ExcludedMethodNames option
dotnet_diagnostic.PNA1000.ExcludedMethodNames = ToString,Equals,GetHashCode

Option 2: Configure in Visual Studio

1. Right-click on your solution in Solution Explorer
2. Select Analyze > Configure Code Analysis > For Solution
3. In the dialog that appears, find your analyzer (PNA1000)
4. Configure the settings for OnlyForRecords and ExcludedMethodNames

Option 3: Configure in Project File (.csproj) You can also add these settings to your project file:

<PropertyGroup>
  <AnalysisMode>All</AnalysisMode>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
  <EditorConfigFiles Include=".editorconfig" />
</ItemGroup>
<PropertyGroup>
  <AnalyzerConfigFiles Include="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\.analyzer.config" />
</PropertyGroup>

Then create a .analyzer.config file with:

is_global = true
PNA1000.OnlyForRecords = true
PNA1000.ExcludedMethodNames = ToString,Equals,GetHashCode

The most common and recommended approach is Option 1 with the .editorconfig file, as it's the standard way to configure analyzer settings in modern .NET projects.
