deno_lint

Discord Chat

A Rust crate for writing fast JavaScript and TypeScript linters.

This crate powers deno lint, but is not Deno specific and can be used to write linters for Node as well.

Supports recommended set of rules from ESLint and @typescript-eslint out of the box with no config.

See the roadmap


Supported rules

Visit https://lint.deno.land for the list of available rules.

Blazing fast, see comparison with ESLint:

Benchmarks are run during CI on Ubuntu, using the same set of rules for both linters. Test subject is oak server consisting of about 50 files. See ./benchmarks/ directory for more info.

Node.js bindings

If you want to use deno_lint with Node, please refer to @node-rs/deno-lint package which provides programmatic API as well as Webpack loader for deno_lint.

Example

examples/dlint/main.rs provides a minimal standalone binary demonstrating how deno_lint can be used as a crate.

# Build standalone binary
$ cargo build --example dlint --features="docs"

$ ./target/debug/examples/dlint --help

dlint

USAGE:
    dlint <SUBCOMMAND>

FLAGS:
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

SUBCOMMANDS:
    help     Prints this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Developing

Make sure to have latest stable version of Rust installed (1.56.0).

// check version
$ rustc --version
rustc 1.56.0 (09c42c458 2021-10-18)

// build all targets
$ cargo build --all-targets

// test it
$ cargo test

Generating flamegraph (Linux)

Prerequisites:

$ RUSTFLAGS='-g' cargo build --release --all-targets # build target
$ sudo perf record --call-graph dwarf ./target/release/examples/dlint benchmarks/oak/**.ts # create performance profile
$ perf script | stackcollapse-perf | c++filt | flamegraph > flame.svg # generate flamegraph

You can use rust-unmangle or rustfilt instead of c++filt.

These commands can take a few minutes to run.
