Behind the scenes
How are identified applicable files
- File extensions:
.groovy
,.gvy
,.gradle
,.nf
- File names (regex):
Jenkinsfile
How the linting is performed
- npm-groovy-lint is called once with the list of files as arguments (
list_of_files
CLI lint mode)
Example calls
npm-groovy-lint myfile.groovy
npm-groovy-lint -c .groovylintrc.json
npm-groovy-lint -c .groovylintrc.json --fix myfile.groovy myfile2.groovy
Help content
npm-groovy-lint [options]
--ext [String] Specify Groovy file extensions
-s, --source String Source text to lint (if no path/files arguments)
--sourcefilepath String Full path of the file whose content is sent in source argument
--parse Try to parse the source code with GroovyShell and return errors (use argument --no-parse if you want to deactivate)
-c, --config String Custom path to directory containing GroovyLint config file.
Default: Found groovylintrc.js/json/yml/package.json config file, or default npm-groovy-lint config if not defined.
Note: command-line arguments have priority on config file properties - default: /
--format Format source code
--fix Automatically fix problems when possible
-x, --fixrules String Option for --fix argument: List of rule identifiers to fix (if not specified, all available fixes will be applied) - default: all
-i, --ignorepattern String Comma-separated list of Ant-style file patterns specifying files that must be ignored. Default: none
-r, --rulesets String RuleSet file(s) to use for linting. If it is a directory, all rulesets will be used. RuleSet file definition: http://codenarc.github.io/CodeNarc/codenarc-creating-ruleset.html. If not specified, npm-groovy-script default one will be used. Can also be a list of rule identifiers with parameters
--rulesetsoverridetype String If list of rules sent in rulesets option, defines if they replace rules defined in .groovylintrc.json, or if they are appended - either: replaceConfig or appendConfig - default: replaceConfig
-o, --output String Output format (txt,json,sarif,html,xml), or path to a file with one of these extensions - default: txt
-l, --loglevel String Log level (error,warning,info) - either: error, warning, or info - default: info
--verbose More outputs in console, including performed fixes
--failon String Defines the error level where CLI will fail (return code = 1). error,warning,info or none. Every failure level includes the more critical ones. - either: error, warning, info, or none - default: info
--failonerror (Deprecated) Fails if at least one error is found
--failonwarning (Deprecated) Fails if at least one warning is found
--failoninfo (Deprecated) Fails if at least one error is found
--codenarcargs Use core CodeNarc arguments (all npm-groovy-lint arguments will be ignored). Doc: http://codenarc.github.io/CodeNarc/codenarc-command-line.html
--noserver For better performances, npm-groovy-lint runs a local server to eep CodeNarc alive instead of loading java/groovy at each call. If you don't want that, send this argument
--serverhost String If use of CodeNarc server, host where is the CodeNarc server (default: localhost) - default: http://localhost
--serverport String If use of CodeNarc server, port of the CodeNarc server (default: 7484) - default: 7484
-j, --javaexecutable String If you do not want to use default java executable to run CodeNarcServer, you can override it - default: java
--javaoptions String Override java options - default: -Xms256m,-Xmx2048m
--killserver Terminate the CodeNarcServer if running
--nolintafter Do not lint again after format and fix options (useful for client calling Npm Groovy Lint)
--returnrules Return rule descriptions and url if this argument is set
--insight npm-groovy-lint collects anonymous usage statistics using package https://www.npmjs.com/package/insight. If you want to enable them, use --insight option
-h, --help Show help (npm-groovy-lint -help OPTIONNAME to see option detail)
-v, --version Show version
-p, --path path::String (DEPRECATED) Directory containing the files to lint (default: current directory) - default: .
-f, --files String (DEPRECATED) Comma-separated list of Ant-style file patterns specifying files that must be included
