This file is for anyone working on integrating CoffeeLint with another project. What kinds of things can I build? ================================= CoffeeLint is [exposed as a library](https://coffeelint.github.io/#api) that you could use in build tools, or in the browser. Anywhere you can run Javascript. You can also build [your own rules](https://coffeelint.github.io/#api), or custom reporter. CoffeeLint is also a command line tool, so most non-javascript integrations run that and parse the output. There are built in reporters for `csv`, `jslint`, `checkstyle`, and `raw`. Which version of CoffeeLint should I depend on? =============================================== CoffeeLint follows [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org), so any breaking change to the API will be a major version change. I recommend depending on `^1.x` where x is the current version. How do I list my editor/build plugin on coffeelint.org? ======================================================= Coffeelint.github.io uses [coffeelint/coffeelint.github.io](https://github.com/coffeelint/coffeelint.github.io), just send a pull request with your addition and it'll get reviewed. The list of plugins is in `index-bottom.html`. `npm run compile` will regenerate `index.html` with your changes. How can people find my rule? ============================ All rules need to include the `coffeelintrule`. Coffeelint.github.io directs users to <https://www.npmjs.org/search?q=coffeelintrule> to locate available rules. Does my rule need to be built into CoffeeLint? ============================================== Built in rules use the same APIs as 3rd party rules. The only benefit of built in rules is that they get included with CoffeeLint and are exposed to a wider audience. If the rule mimics a rule in eslint then it can be added to the built in rules. Most new rules are set to `ignore` by default. My general guide line is that if you can demonstrate the rule prevents a type of error it can be `warn` or `error` by default. I think `no_debugger` is a good example of such a rule.
