Readme
Ethlint (Formerly Solium) analyzes your Solidity code for style & security issues and fixes them.
See Documentation, Changelog and upcoming releases.
Before beginning to work on a contribution, please read the Guidelines.
Install
npm install -g ethlint
solium -V
For backward-compatibility, you can still use npm install -g solium
.
If you're currently using the solium
package for npm install
, it is highly recommended that you move to ethlint
. The solium
package will not receive updates after December, 2019. There are no differences between the updates pushed to ethlint
and solium
packages.
Usage
In the root directory of your DApp:
solium --init
This creates 2 files for you:
.soliumignore
- contains names of files and directories to ignore while linting.soliumrc.json
- contains configuration that tells Solium how to lint your project. You should modify this file to configure rules, plugins and sharable configs.
.soliumrc.json
looks like:
{
"extends": "solium:recommended",
"plugins": ["security"],
"rules": {
"quotes": ["error", "double"],
"indentation": ["error", 4],
"linebreak-style": ["error", "unix"]
}
}
To know which lint rules Solium applies for you, see Style rules and Security rules.
NOTE
Solium does not strictly adhere to Solidity Style Guide. It aims to promote coding practices agreed upon by the community at large.
Lint
solium -f foobar.sol
solium -d contracts/
Configure with comments
Comment Directives can be used to configure Solium to ignore specific pieces of code.
They follow the pattern solium-disable<optional suffix>
.
If you only use the directive, Solium disables all rules for the marked code. If that's not desirable, specify the rules to disable after the directive, separated by comma.
- Disable linting on a specific line
contract Foo {
/* solium-disable-next-line */
function() {
bytes32 bar = 'Hello world'; // solium-disable-line quotes
// solium-disable-next-line security/no-throw, indentation
throw;
}
}
- Disable linting on entire file
/* solium-disable */
contract Foo {
...
}
Fix
Solium automatically fixes your code to resolve whatever issues it can.
solium -d contracts/ --fix
