Version 2.2.0 (09-28-2015):

Again, it's been way too long since the last version; we're going to be releasing more often in the future!

In this release, we have a nicer homepage, 5 new rules, 4 more autofixable rules, many new rule options/bug fixes, and a [email protected] update.

We also added support for using YAML in config files, checking JS style in HTML files, and are trying out some non-stylistic rules (like disallowUnusedParams)!

Be on the look out for https://github.com/cst/cst (just finished ES6 support this weekend) if you haven't already.

Autofixing: Support for 4 more rules!

Thanks to @markelog, we also have autofix support for the following rules:

We will also be labeling which rules don't support autofixing (only a few).

Configuration: YAML support, and linting JS in HTML files

We weren't even thinking about different config formats, but @ronkorving stepped in and added support for using YAML as a config format!

So now you can use a .jscsrc / jscs.json (JSON) file or a .jscs.yaml (YAML) file.

@lahmatiy has landed support for linting javascript in HTML files with the extract option! Thanks so much for sticking with us for that PR.

Example usage:

jscs ./hello.html --extract *.html 

New Rules

disallowMultiLineTernary (Brian Dixon)

// Valid for "disallowMultiLineTernary": true
var foo = (a === b) ? 1 : 2;

requireMultiLineTernary (Brian Dixon)

// Valid for "requireMultiLineTernary": true
var foo = (a === b)
  ? 1
  : 2;

disallowTabs (Mike Ottum)

It disallows tab characters everywhere!

disallowUnusedParams (Oleg Gaidarenko)

Another cool rule @markelog added is actually a non-stylistic rule with autofixing support! It checks to make sure you use the parameters in function declarations and function expressions!

// Invalid since test is unused
function x(test) {
}
var x = function(test) {
}

validateCommentPosition (Brian Dixon)

Comments that start with keywords like eslint, jscs, jshint are ignored by default.

/* Valid for "validateCommentPosition": { position: `above`, allExcept: [`pragma`] } */
// This is a valid comment
1 + 1; // pragma (this comment is fine)

/* Valid for "validateCommentPosition": { position: `beside` } */
1 + 1; // This is a valid comment

Just as a reminder, you can disable certain AST node types with the disallowNodeTypes rule which takes in an array of node types.

For example: if you want to disable arrow functions for some reason, you could do

"disallowNodeTypes": ['ArrowFunctionExpression'].

Presets: Idiomatic.js and other updates

We finally added support for Idiomatic.js! There are a few more rules we still need to add, so leave a comment in the issue or create a new one.

  • Google: remove capitalizedNativeCase option in the JSDoc checkTypes rule (Sam Thorogood)
  • Idiomatic: add initial preset (Henry Zhu)
  • jQuery: add disallowSpacesInCallExpression rule to (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • jQuery: use ignoreIfInTheMiddle value for requireCapitalizedComments rule (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • jQuery: add validateIndentation rule (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • Wikimedia: enable es3 (James Forrester)

Rule Options/Changes

  • requireSpacesInsideParentheses: ignoreParenthesizedExpression option (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • disallowSpaceAfterObjectKeys: add method exception option (Alexander Zeilmann)
  • disallowSpaceBeforeSemicolon: add allExcept option (Oleg Gaidarenko)

  • requireArrowFunctions: create an error on function bind (Henry Zhu)
  • Misc: Bucket all rules into groups, test case to ensure new rules have a group (indexzero)

  • disallowParenthesesAroundArrowParam: fix check for params (Henry Zhu)
  • spacesInsideBrackets: account for block comments (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • disallowSemicolons: ignore needed exceptions (Oleg Gaidarenko)
  • spacesInFunctionExpression: account for async functions (MikeMac)

  • Exclude .git folder by default (Vladimir Starkov)

JSDoc updates

What's JSCS?

The homepage now showcases what JSCS actually does. We were missing a 🐱 picture as well so ...

If you have any feedback on the site, leave a comment at our website repo.

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GIVE CST!

We've also been busy working on https://github.com/cst/cst.

cst

CST stands for Concrete Syntax Tree, as opposed to AST which stands for Abstract Syntax Tree. CST uses a regular AST but adds support for information that you normally don't care about but is vital for a style checker, e.g. spaces, newlines, comments, semicolons, etc. Using a CST will allow us to support more complex autofixing such as adding curly braces while retaining other formatting or much larger transformations.

We just finished supporting all of ES6 this past weekend. ES6+ and JSX support is also in progress! We'll be integrating CST into JSCS in the 3.0 branch, so look out for that soon (CST uses babel as its AST parser).

If you're interested, there was a lot of discussion on CSTs at the ESTree repo.


Hopefully we can get more community help for JSCS! (check out CONTRIBUTING.md if you're interested)

We have a beginner-friendly tag for people to get started on issues.

Small personal sidenote

Thanks to everyone who has been submitting issues/PRs!

It's been almost a year since I (hzoo) really started contributing to open source. It's still crazy to me that my first pull request was just adding the table of contents. I was so excited to contribute that day!

Little did I know I would slowly do more and more - typo fixes, docs changes, bugfixes, rules, and then eventually become part of the team! I've become a better communicator and become more confident to give and take constructive feedback. I'm currently still figuring out how to review PRs, label issues, do changelogs (like right now), release, etc.

So much has happened after starting that one simple contribution! Even though I know a lot more about ASTs, javascript/node, and programming style, it all adds up to much more than that technical knowledge.

Contributing here helped me make PRs to a lot of other projects (in my case babel, eslint, and others). I understand more that it doesn't take a special person to start helping out. I really hope to encourage others to join our awesome open source community at large!
