Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : eslint Version : 0.4.5 Upstream Author : Nicholas C. Zakas <nicholas+...@nczconsulting.com> * URL : http://eslint.org/ * License : Expat (MIT) Programming Lang: ECMAScript Description : tool for static analysis of ECMAScript (JavaScript™) code
ESLint is a tool for identifying and reporting on patterns found in
ECMAScript (JavaScript™) code. It performs static code analysis to find
common and likely mistakes.
.
In many ways, it is similar to JSLint and JSHint with a few exceptions:
.
* ESLint uses Esprima for JavaScript parsing.
* ESLint uses an AST to evaluate patterns in code.
* ESLint is completely pluggable, every single rule is a plugin and you
can add more at runtime.
One reason this package is attractive for ECMAScript developers is because
it is a DFSG-free licensed linter; the two most popular linters, JSLint and
JSHint, both have non-free licenses that prevent their inclusion in Debian.
