Build Status

The purpose of this module is to validate language keys used in templates and scripts of a Stencil theme. If you use language keys that are not defined in your language files, you will get a warning when you run the validator. It is a static checker intended to be used as a part of your build process.

Usage

You can validate your language files directly in your terminal using the CLI of this module.

CLI

Install the module globally.

$ npm install -g @bigcommerce/stencil-lang-validator

And run

$ validate-lang --lang-path './lang/*.json' --template-path './templates/**/*.html'

If there are invalid language keys, you'll see an error report in your console.

validator.validate()
    .then((result) => {
