Documentation
For detailed information according plugins, data, configuration and FAQ please check the documentation before creating an issue.
Usage
npm install inline-style-linter
First you will need to configure your Linter for your special use case. Check out Plugins for a list of currently provided plugins and settings.
import Linter, { Plugins } from 'inline-style-linter'
// example configuration
const config = {
plugins: [
Plugins.preferNumber,
Plugins.shorthandLonghand,
Plugins.noInitialValue
]
}
// new Linter instance with the given config
const linter = new Linter(config)
// example style object
const styles = {
border: '1px solid gray',
borderColor: 'blue',
borderWidth: 2,
width: '50px',
fontSize: 14
}
// basic linting which returns a set of warnings
const warnings = linter.lint(styles)
// if no warnings occured the array will be empty
// no linting issues therefore recorded
warnings.length === 0
// else you might iterate over them and do something
warnings.forEach(warning => console.log(warning.hint))
// This would output the following
// > Do not mix longhands: 'borderColor, borderWidth' with their shorthand: 'border'.
// > Prefer numbers for 'width:50px'. Use 'width:50' instead.
