@kitschpatrol/knip-config

NPM Package @kitschpatrol/knip-config License: MIT

Knip configuration for @kitschpatrol/shared-config.

Overview

It's a shared Knip config, plus a command-line tool ksc-knip to perform Knip-related project initialization, linting, and fixing.

[!IMPORTANT]

You can use this package on its own, but it's recommended to use @kitschpatrol/shared-config instead for a single-dependency and single-package approach to linting and fixing your project.

This package is included as a dependency in @kitschpatrol/shared-config, which also automatically invokes the command line functionality in this package via its ksc command

Setup

To use just this Knip config in isolation:

  • Install the .npmrc in your project root. This is required for correct PNPM behavior:

    pnpm dlx @kitschpatrol/repo-config init
    
  • Add the package:

    pnpm add -D @kitschpatrol/knip-config
    
  • Add the starter knip.config.ts files to your project root, and add any customizations you'd like:

    pnpm exec ksc-knip init
    

Usage

Integrate with your package.json scripts as you see fit, for example:

{
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "ksc-knip lint"
  }
}

Configuration

To create a knip.config.ts in your project root:

pnpm exec ksc-knip init

(Note that this will delete the knip property in your package.json!)

Or

To create a knip property in package.json:

pnpm exec ksc-knip init --location package

(Note that this will delete the knip.config.ts file in your project root!)
