Make Linting Great Again with @okonetchnikov
None
https://reason-conf.com
What the #$&% is lint?!
–Wikipedia “lint or a linter is any tool that flags
suspicious usage in software written in any computer language.”
–me “linter is a tool that finds stupid bugs.”
None
These things here :(
None
None
None
How to fix that?
Lint all the things!
Stylelint JSON Lint
Why lint?
– http://www.prweb.com/releases/2013/1/prweb10298185.htm “On average, software developers spend 50% of their
time finding and fixing bugs.”
– http://www.prweb.com/releases/2013/1/prweb10298185.htm “…this inefficiency is estimated to cost the global
economy $312 billion per year.”
None
In reality, though…
– http://www.prweb.com/releases/2013/1/prweb10298185.htm “On average, software developers spend 50% of their
time finding and fixing bugs.”
– me “On average, software developers spend 50% of their
time discussing code style.”
None
You don’t need to uglify your code if it’s already
ugly!
How to fix that?
One code style to rule them all!
None
None
Using linters & formatters leads to 1. Fewer (stupid) bugs
2. Better readability => less time in code reviews 3. But it can slow you down… :(
—Slow down?! —We’re not doing that then!
My typical day…

– Everyone “I wish I could lint before committing the
changes to the repository”
git hooks
None
git hooks are 1. Hard to setup 2. Hard to
manage 3. Hard to share across the team
npm install -D husky yarn add --dev husky
{ "scripts": { "precommit": "eslint ." } }
None
None
Thanks husky! 1. Hard to setup 2. Hard to manage
3. Hard to share across the team
…but linting the whole project 1. Can be quite slow
2. Will display irrelevant results
None
What if we could run linters only on files we’re
about to commit?
Meet lint-staged!
npm install -D lint-staged yarn add --dev lint-staged
{ "scripts": { "precommit": "lint-staged" } }
{ "scripts": { "precommit": "lint-staged" }, "lint-staged": { "*.js": "eslint"
} }
None
git hooks are 1. Hard to setup 2. Hard to
manage 3. Hard to share across the team 4. Very slow 5. Displaying irrelevant results A WES OME!
There is more!
Automatically fix lint errors
{ "lint-staged": { "*.js": "eslint" } }
{ "lint-staged": { "*.js": [ "eslint --fix", "git add" ]
} }
Automatically reformat your code
None
{ "lint-staged": { "*.js": [ "eslint --fix", "git add" ]
} }
{ "lint-staged": { "*.js": [ "prettier --write", "git add" ]
} }
None
lint-staged and prettier being used in create-react-app
lint-staged and prettier being used in Babel!
How does it work?
#!/bin/bash executable=$(npm bin)/staged-files linter_name="eslint" linter_path=$(npm bin)/eslint lint_extensions="**/*.@(js|jsx)" if [[ -f

Is it installed?" echo "" echo "Try running:" echo "npm install --save-dev ${linter_name}" fi
None
#!/bin/bash executable=$(npm bin)/staged-files linter_name="stylelint" linter_path=$(npm bin)/stylelint lint_extensions="**/*.@(css|scss|less|styl)" if [[ -f

#!/bin/bash executable=$(npm bin)/staged-files linter_name="jscs" linter_path=$(npm bin)/jscs lint_extensions="**/*.@(js|jsx)" if [[ -f
"${linter_path}" ]]; then echo "Running ${linter_name} on git staged files: $ {lint_extensions}" ${executable} "${lint_extensions}" -- ${linter_path} else echo "Could not find ${linter_name} at $ {linter_path}. Is it installed?" echo "" echo "Try running:" echo "npm install --save-dev ${linter_name}" fi
DRY
Present
lint-staged is a tool that • Can run any task
• Easy to install via npm • Easy to distribute across the team (.lintstagedrc) • Easy to use (DX!)
