Advanced tools
Package description
The tslint npm package is a static analysis tool that checks TypeScript code for readability, maintainability, and functionality errors. It is widely used to enforce a consistent code style by checking the code against a set of linting rules.
Linting TypeScript Files
This feature allows you to lint TypeScript files by specifying a configuration file and a pattern to match files. The command will process all TypeScript files in the 'src' directory and its subdirectories.
tslint -c tslint.json 'src/**/*.ts'Fixing Linting Errors Automatically
This feature automatically fixes linting errors that can be corrected without human intervention. It is useful for fixing simple issues like whitespace or semicolon usage.
tslint --fix -c tslint.json 'src/**/*.ts'Custom Rules
This feature allows you to use custom linting rules in addition to the predefined rules. You can specify a directory containing custom rule definitions to be applied to your code.
tslint -c tslint.json 'src/**/*.ts' --rules-dir custom_rulesESLint is a popular linting tool for JavaScript and TypeScript. It is highly configurable and extendable, with a large ecosystem of plugins. ESLint has effectively replaced TSLint as the preferred linter for TypeScript after TSLint's deprecation.
Prettier is an opinionated code formatter that supports many languages, including TypeScript. While it does not perform static code analysis, it formats code to a consistent style. Prettier can be used alongside linters like ESLint.
Stylelint is a modern linter that helps you avoid errors and enforce conventions in your stylesheets. Although it is primarily used for CSS, it can be used in conjunction with PostCSS to lint SCSS, Sass, Less, and other CSS-like languages.
