Package Exports

canonical

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (canonical) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Usage

Command Line

The easiest way to use Canonical to check your code style is to install it as a Node command line program.

npm install canonical -g

After that, you can run canonical program on any JavaScript, SCSS or CSS file:

# Lint all JavaScript in ./src/ directory.
canonical ./src/**/*.js

# Lint all CSS in ./src/ directory.
canonical ./src/**/*.css

# Lint all JavaScript and CSS in ./src/ directory.
canonical ./src/**/*.js ./src/**/*.css

# List all supported formats in ./src/ and the descending directories.
canonical ./src/

Gulp

Using Canonical does not require a Gulp plugin. Canonical program interface gives access to all features.

Use Canonical API in combination with a glob pattern matcher (e.g. globby) to lint multiple files, e.g.

import gulp from 'gulp';
import globby from 'globby';

import {
    lintText,
    lintFiles,
    getFormatter
} from 'canonical/es';

gulp.task('lint-javascript', () => {
    return globby(['./**/*.js'])
        .then((paths) => {
            let formatter,
                report;

            formatter = getFormatter();
            report = lintFiles(paths);

            if (report.errorCount || report.warningCount) {
                console.log(formatter(report.results));
            }
        });
});

This example is written using ES6 syntax. If you want your gulpfile.js to use ES6 syntax, you have to execute it using Babel or an equivalent code-to-code compiler, e.g.

babel-node ./node_modules/.bin/gulp lint-javascript
