Passing --blocked-url-patterns in config.json

[goranculibrk]

Hi there,
I'm trying to pass an argument to the lighthouse, which would block Google Analytics.
Here's the code from config.json.

"lighthouseFlags": { "output": ["html", "csv"], "emulatedFormFactor": "desktop", "blocked-url-patterns": [ "*www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js*" ] }

Based on Lighthouse documentation, it's possible to pass that argument. I've tried passing just the URL, without brackets, it didn't work, then I tried using the brackets without the asterisk and it didn't help. Any idea how to block requests for this url: www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js?

My goal is to perform audit reports but without notifying google analytics about it, since running 100-200 tests on websites that have maybe 1, 2000 monthly visitors would mess the data.

Actually, after a little bit of digging, figured it out. I was using blocked-url-patterns instead of blockedUrlPatterns.
The full code that's working properly from what I can see is:

"lighthouseFlags": { "output": ["html", "csv"], "emulatedFormFactor": "desktop", "blockedUrlPatterns": [ "www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js" ] }

You could just filter your traffic from analytics...
