Lintlovin

Lintlovin sets up your project for automatic linting, whitespace checking, and runs mocha tests (if you have any).

On install (npm install @voxpelli/lintlovin --save-dev) it will set up a Grunt file, .editorconfig, .jshintrc, and a git hook that runs test before you push. The gotcha here is that it will run tests on what is in you working directory, and not on the actual contents of the branch.

To run tests continually while editing run grunt watch in your project. To run tests manually just run npm test.

ESLint options

By default uses semistandard, but this is easily overrideable through the .eslintrc in ones own project.

Available Grunt tasks

The npm-based commands don't need grunt-cli, but the grunt commands do.

• default – the default task, the one invoked when running just grunt, will if no additional tasks are added just run the test task.
• test – lints all files to the defined ESLint and EditorConfig coding style guidelines and, unless noMocha has been set to true, runs all tests in a test/-folder if such a one exist, with the exclusion of any tests in a test/integration/ folder. Can be invoked through either grunt test or npm test.
• test-all – like test, but also runs the tests in the test/integration/ folder. Can be invoked through either grunt test-all or npm run test-all.
• watch – watches for file changes and runs test on any relevant change. Can be invoked through grunt watch.

lintlovin.initConfig(grunt[, config] [, options])

To be run from the parent project's Gruntfile.js. Initializes the grunt object sent in with a basic task setup. Also allows additional task setups to be sent in through config and for altering the basic setup in some ways through options.

Options

• integrationWatch – makes the watch task also run tests in test/integration/, which can be unfeasible in big projects, but nice in smaller ones. Defaults to false.
• alwaysIntegration – makes the test task also run tests in test/integration/, which can be unfeasible in big projects, but nice in smaller ones. Defaults to false.
• jsFiles – an array of additional files to watch and lint. By default .js-files in top folder or below the bin/, cli/, lib/ or test/ folders will be watched and linted. (Also any non-js file in test/ will be watched and will thus retrigger a test when changed)
• spaceFiles – an array of additional files to just watch and whitespace lint.
• dependencyFiles – an array of additional files to just check for dependencies.
• watchFiles – an array of additional files to just watch.
• enableCoverageEvent – enables the grunt-mocha-istanbul coverage event on tests
• extraDefaultTasks – an array of additional tasks to add to the default task alias
• extraTestTasks – an array of additional tasks to add to the test task alias
• extraTestAllTasks – an array of additional tasks to add to the test-all task alias
• extraWatchTasks – an object of additional watch task definitions
• noIntegration – whether there are integration tests in test/integration/ or not. Defaults to true if test/integration/ exists.
• noMocha – disables the Mocha tests. Mocha tests are otherwise run if a test/-folder is found in the parent project.
• noTiming – disables the time-grunt performance output
• noDependencyCheck – disables the dependency-check plugin
• ignoreUnusedDependencies – ignores the specified modules when looking for unused modules
