Codacy rules

I think everyone agrees that Codacy is rather overzealous regarding some things. I logged in to se what options there are.

The purpose of this thread is to gather potential rules to omit and have a discussion around that.

I think requiring javadocs for fields is a bit too much. I think it's this one:

• CheckStyle - JavadocMethod - Specify the access modifiers where Javadoc comments are checked.

• JavaDoc param requiring an empty line (especially since it doesn't seem to work?) But I can't find which one that is. Would be great if it was linked in the issue.

Seems it's possible to configure through a file:
https://docs.codacy.com/repositories-configure/codacy-configuration-file/

Perhaps also changing the max allowed minimum errors. It would be nice though if some still showed up as warnings, but didn't fail the build, like magic numbers, java doc issues.

Start with the Codacy configuration file documentation linked in the issue and review the CheckStyle JavadocMethod rule and the requested JavaDoc parameter rule. Determine which rules should be omitted or treated as warnings, and confirm how the maximum error threshold affects the build. Done means the proposed configuration and rule changes are agreed and documented.
