Summary
A set of configuration files and scripts to lint various sugar related code.
During execution, sugar-lint will lint:
- python files by pylint (should be installed before) with custom configuration file and pep8.py (comes with sugar-lint sources),
- vala files by vala-indent (should be installed from http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/vala-indent).
- C/C++ files by indent command (should be installed)
Install
Clone sugar-lint repository:
git clone git://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-lint/mainline.git <install-path>
Add sugar-lint command to PATH e.g. to ~/.bashrc (you need to relogin):
echo PATH=<full-path-install-path>:$PATH >> ~/.bashrc
Usage
Direct invocation
To lint files:
sugar-lint <file>
To lint all files recursively:
sugar-lint -r .
If fails were detected, call diff command (by default vimdiff or DIFFER environment variable value) to diff the source file and temporary file with comments in problematic places:
sugar-lint -d <file>
Lint files before commiting
To add pre-commit git hook to lint files before commiting to arbitrary project:
ln -s <local-path>/sugar/lint/git-pre-commit-hook <project-root>/.git/hooks/pre-commit
Additional syntax
