Provide an --exclude command line argument to exclude some patterns or files

[arthurzenika]

Hey, kubeval looks really useful. We're adding it to our heptapod/gitlab CI. It's as simple as

kubeval:
  image: garethr/kubeval
  script:
    - kubeval --directories .

We use kustomize https://kustomize.io/ so we have a bunch of kustomization.yaml which fail the test. Since we also store the resulting generated files in our repos, we'd like to be able to run kubeval --directories . --exclude kustomization.yaml

[arthurzenika]

Our workaround for now is :

kubeval:
  image: garethr/kubeval
  script:
    - rm */*/kustomization.yaml
    - kubeval --directories .

You should be able to use --ignored-filename-patterns

@johanneswuerbach thanks ! It works. I've added a mention of that option in the documentation.

--ignored-filename-patterns feature seems in the next release...
