Install

This module is standard in all P'unk Avenue ApostropheCMS projects. It provides warnings of potential bugs and errors in your code. It is recommended for developers of all skill levels working with ApostropheCMS.

In the project root directory run:

npm install eslint eslint-plugin-promise     eslint-plugin-import
eslint-plugin-standard eslint-plugin-react eslint-config-standard eslint-config-punkave --save-dev

Also, add the following to .eslintrc in the root directory:

{
  "extends": "punkave"
}

Editors

If you're using Atom as your editor you can install the ESLint plugin, which provides an interface for ESLint and this configuration. VSCode has similar features, this plugin may be installed in your editor already.

Running it manually

Once you have installed all of the required npm packages and added your .eslintrc file, you can manually run:

npx eslint .

Some warnings, such as those about whitespace, can be fixed automatically:

npx eslint . --fix

Making it mandatory: adding eslint to your tests

You can add it to the test property in package.json, like this:

"test": "mocha && eslint .",

Then npm test will not pass unless eslint passes. Here we assume you also have mocha tests. But you could combine this with any test command, or have it as the only test command. && means "do not continue unless the previous command succeeded."
