twolfsontwolfson-style 
Lint and style configurations for @twolfson
This was built to create a common versioned location for @twolfson's style choices.
Currently, we are leveraging jscs, a tool for verifying consistent style, and jshint, a tool that performs both linting and style checking.
Getting Started
Install the module with: npm install twolfson-style
Then, install the .jscsrc and .jshintrc to your project's repo:
# Copy over `rc` files
# `./node_modules/.bin/` can be removed if you are in a `npm-run-script` context
./node_modules/.bin/twolfson-style install
# Verify we have added the files
ls .js*
# .jscsrc .jshintrcThese files can be integrated with jscs and jshint respectively. A common usage is an npm-run-script:
// DEV: By providing a `lib/` instead of `lib/*.js`, both `jscs` and `jshint` recurse the directory (e.g. `lib/hello/world.js`)
"lint": "jshint lib/ test/ && jscs lib/ test/"
// Alternatively, we provide a sugar command to do this:
"lint": "twolfson-style lint lib/ test/"We provide a precheck utility to prevent critical JS errors before running tests.
// Verifies only critical lint errors (e.g. using an undeclared variable)
"precheck": "twolfson-style precheck lib/ test/"Documentation
CLI
twolfson-style installs a twolfson-style executable:
$ ./bin/twolfson-style --help
Usage: twolfson-style [options] [command]
Commands:
install [dir] Install style `rc` configuration files to `dir` or the current directory
precheck <path...> Run critical style checks (e.g. using an undeclared variable)
lint <path...> Run all of your style checks (Note: you must provide `jshint` and `jscs` on your `$PATH`)
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version numberinstall [dir]
The install command copies over the .jscsrc and .jshintrc files to a specified directory, dir, or the current working directory, process.cwd().
Currently, we only provide node styles but in the future, we are considering adding --env browser to alter the styles for browser linting.
# Copy over `rc` files
twolfson-style install
# List our new files
ls .js*
# .jscsrc .jshintrcprecheck <paths...>
The precheck command checks for critical lint errors (e.g. using an undeclared variable).
twolfson-style precheck docs/precheck.js
# docs/precheck.js: line 1, col 13, 'iWasNeverUndeclared' is not defined.
#
# 1 errorlint <paths...>
The lint command runs jshint and jshint against paths.
We will use the jshint and jscs must be provided on the $PATH.
twolfson-style does not provide jshint and jscs dependencies. If we were to, it would lead to slower releases and annoying one-off upgrades.
twolfson-style lint docs/lint.js
# docs/lint.js: line 2, col 3, Expected '{' and instead saw 'void'.

# 1 errorLibrary versions
The supported jscs and jshint versions are the same as this package's package.json.
