rainbird-linter

Wrapper for JSHint/Plato that produces a JSHint report to the console, and a Plato report to the filesystem. The reports cover the same filesets and use the same linter options, although allow for filtering some files from the plato report.

Installation

npm install -g rainbird-linter

Usage

Usage: rblint [options]
  -t, --title=TITLE    The title of the report.
  -o, --output=PATH    The directory to output the reports to
  -l, --jshint=PATH    Path to a jshintrc file for JSHint linting.
  -f, --filesets=PATH  Path to a file containing the filesets to report on.
  -h, --help           display this help text.

The file containing the filesets must be valid JSON containing two properties, includeFiles and excludeFiles. Optionally the property lintOnly can be set. Each property is an array of strings containing file or directory names.

Example

rblint --title "My Report" --output ~/reports/myproj/ --jshint ~/.jshintrc \
       --filesets ./filesets.json

The above command will create a Plato report entitled "My Report" in ~/reports/myproj/ using a .jshintrc from the users home directory. This .jshintrc will also be used for the linter report to console. The included files will be pulled from a file called filesets.json in the current directory.

If the contents of filesets.json was:

{
    "includeFiles": ["index.js", "lib/", "test/", "public/"],
    "excludeFiles": ["public/thirdparty/"],
    "lintOnly": ["public/"]
}

The the report would be run over index.js, all javascript files under lib/, all javascript files under test/ and all javascript files under public/ apart from the content of public/thirdparty/. The contents of test/ will not be included in the plato reports.
