Rocketmakers Bitrot Tool

A tool allowing Rocketmakers to detect bitrot in projects.

The main focus of this tool is to notify about versions becoming outdated over time.

• Contributing Guide

To setup this in your project you will need to:

• Add yaml extension from vscode marketplace

• Add the below to .vscode/settings.json in the root of your project

  "yaml.schemas": {
      "node_modules/bitrot/schema.json": "bitrot.yaml",
    },

• Add bitrot.yaml to the root of your project using node_modules/bitrot/schema.json to validate/help, an example is below:

  projects:
    - name: 'backend'
      path: 'backend'
      tags: ['node']
  
  justifications:
    - rule: 'pkg:npm/mocha'
      reason: 'Not switched to Jest yet'

This can then be ran using npx @rocketmakers/bitrot which if not installed will run the latest version. If you install bitrot as a package you will be locked to a specific version and will not receive rule updates.
