ERROR: Unable to parse: (<unknown>): found unexpected end of stream while scanning a quoted scalar at line 23 column 5
Below is my .codeclimate.yml file :

The line line 23 which is in the error message is as below in the file above:
- "examples/*
What should i do to correct this?

Answer 1

The problem with that line is it's missing the closing quotation mark. However, all of the exclude_paths patterns will need to be enclosed in quotes; i.e. the config should look like this:

Note: You'll still see some deprecation warnings because you're using the old .codeclimate.yml format. There is information about converting from the old format to version 2 in the CodeClimate docs:
