gulp-lint-everything

0.3.2 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript maintenance

A gulp plugin that combines gulp-jshint, gulp-eslint, and gulp-jscs into a single linting task. Version 0.3.2 is the latest (last updated 2015). It runs multiple linters in one pass via a single install and command. Differentiating features: auto-discovery of config files based on directory, and ability to skip linters by omitting config. Only supports Node 0.10+; unmaintained since 2015, with outdated dependencies.

Common errors

error Cannot find module 'gulp-lint-everything' ↓

cause Package not installed

fix

npm install --save-dev gulp-lint-everything

error TypeError: lintAll is not a function ↓

cause Calling result of require without invoking config

fix

Use require('gulp-lint-everything')(config) instead of require('gulp-lint-everything')

error Error: Config file not found: ./jshint.json ↓

cause Missing or incorrect config path

fix

Ensure config files exist relative to cwd, or use absolute path

Warnings

deprecated Package is unmaintained since 2015; no updates for new ESLint versions. ↓

fix Use individual lint plugins or modern alternatives like gulp-eslint-new.

breaking Requires Node 0.10+; may break on modern Node (12+). ↓

fix Run on older Node or upgrade dependencies manually.

gotcha Config paths are relative to the current working directory, not the gulpfile. ↓

fix Use absolute paths or path.join(__dirname, 'config.json').

gotcha If a config string is not provided, that linter is silently skipped; no error. ↓

fix Check that config files exist before running.

deprecated JSCS is no longer maintained; replaced by ESLint. ↓

fix Remove jscs config and use ESLint rules instead.

Install

npm install gulp-lint-everything

yarn add gulp-lint-everything

pnpm add gulp-lint-everything

Imports

gulp-lint-everything (default)
wrong
```
var lintAll = require('gulp-lint-everything');
```
correct
```
var lintAll = require('gulp-lint-everything')(config);
```
The module exports a function that accepts config; call it immediately, not just require.

lintAll (result)

wrong

gulp.task('default', require('gulp-lint-everything')(__dirname));

correct

gulp.task('default', lintAll('*.js'));

The returned value is a function that takes a glob string.

Config object

wrong

require('gulp-lint-everything')({ jshint: true });

correct

require('gulp-lint-everything')({ jshint: './jshint.json', eslint: './eslint.json', jscs: './jscs.json' });

Config must be file paths, not booleans.

Quickstart

Shows how to configure all three linters with custom config files and run them in a gulp task.

var gulp = require('gulp');
var lintAll = require('gulp-lint-everything')({
  jshint: './configs/jshint.json',
  eslint: './configs/eslint.json',
  eslintRulePaths: ['./node_modules/eslint-rules'],
  jscs: './configs/jscs.json'
});
gulp.task('default', ['lint'], function() {
  lintAll('*.js')();
});
