Filter vim's quickfix window per file

Question

I'm using the cquery language server in my Neovim instance. In conjunction with the Languageclient-neovim plugin. This automatically also checks the code for errors in the file that I'm working. However, this also means it checks all the files in my workspace.

I was wondering if there was a possibility to only show errors that are specific to the file that I am working in. See the example below:

I'm working in the file src/bag_rotation.cpp and I only want to filter the quickfix window to only show errors from that file.
