Usage

There are a few different uses of coffeelint.

lint_report = Coffeelint.lint(coffeescript source code, [config options])
lint_report = Coffeelint.lint_file(filename of coffeescript source, [config_options])
lint_reports = Coffeelint.lint_dir(directory, [config_options])
Coffeelint.lint_dir(directory, [config_options]) do |filename, lint_report|
    puts filename
    puts lint_report
    Coffeelint.display_test_results(filename, lint_report)
end
Coffeelint.run_test(filename of coffeescript source, [config_options]) # Run tests and print pretty results (return true/false)
Coffeelint.run_test_suite(directory, [config_options]) # Runs a pretty report recursively for a directory (returns/exits with number of errors if any or 0)

Config Options

The coffeelint gem takes the same config options as coffeelint. The only addition is the config_file parameter. If you call coffeelint like:

Coffeelint.run_test_suite(directory, :config_file => 'coffeelint_config.json')

Then it will load the config options from that file.

Alternatively you can create a config file in your project, coffeelint will load these by default:

• coffeelint.json
• .coffeelint.json
• config/coffeelint.json
• config/.coffeelint.json

To use a local version of coffeelint instead of the one bundled with the gem, You can set the path with Coffeelint.set_path(/path/to/coffeelint.js)

Additionally, if you are using rails you also get the rake task:

rake coffeelint

Which will run the test on any *.coffee file in your app or spec directories

Finally, there is a command line utility that allows you to run standalone tests:

coffeelint.rb <filename>
coffeelint.rb -r <directory>
coffeelint.rb -f <config.json> [-r] <fname-or-directory>
