how ignorePaths work?

[mirekgw]

I'm trying to not validate request data for specific path and I was trying to use ignorePaths, but it seems it's not working as I tough.

I have a path in openapi .yaml file that I would like to exclude from body verification. But I would still like to use param parsing that openapi validator is doing (in applyOpenApiMetadata function).

I'm seeing when request is processed that lookupRoute() in applyOpenApiMetadata() is matching my request and code never goes into openApiContext.isManagedRoute, and that is the only place where ignorePaths is used.

My assumption is that fix for this problem may be that ignorePaths property is checked in buildMiddleware() or maybe in validate() function in openapi.request.validator.js

Could you please explain how ignorePaths should work as documentation is very brief.
Thanks

thanks @mirekgw , just checked the codeignorePaths is broken. the test cases are also broken and incorrectly pass. we'll have a look.

should have a fix soon see #247
in terms of intended behavior... provide a regex to ignorePaths. Path matched by the regex will be ignored.

fix is in v3.9.1

@mirekgw did you have success with the fix? Note, i also made some updates to the README.
