runs source linters on modified files
Usage: fx lint
[--dry-run] [--verbose] [--fix]
[--all]
[--files=FILES,[FILES ...]]
[--target=GN_TARGET]
[--git] [-- PATTERN]
--fix If supported by the linter tool for the target language,
attempt to apply recommended fixes
--dry-run Print the linter commands but don't run them
--verbose Print the linter commands before running them
--all Lints all code in the git repo under the current working
directory.
--files Allows the user to specify files separated by commas or (with
quotes) whitespace. Basic globs are supported, for example:
fx lint --files=foo/*
Or for more advanced filename pattern matching, you can use
double quotes with command substitution:
fx lint --files="$(find some/path -name '*.cc')"
--target Allows the user to specify a gn target.
--git The default; it uses `git diff` against the newest parent
commit in the upstream branch (or against HEAD if no such
commit is found). Files that are locally modified, staged
or touched by any commits introduced on the local branch are
linted.
-- [PATTERN...] -additional -args -for -linter
For --all or --git, passes along PATTERNs to `git ls-files`
to filter what files are affected. The first argument starting
with a dash, and all arguments thereafter, are passed to the
linter command (positioned before the filename). Used in
combination, the pattern can constrain which linter is selected,
so linter options are only applied to the expected linter
program.
Examples:
fx lint -- "*.fidl" --include-check no-trailing-comment
fx lint --files=sdk/fidl/fuchsia.sys/service_provider.fidl \
-- --exclude-check string-bounds-not-specified
fx lint --verbose --files="$(echo sdk/**/*.cc sdk/**/*.fidl)"
