JSCS — JavaScript Code Style.
jscs is a code style checker. jscs can check cases, which are not implemeted in jshint,
but it does not duplicate jshint functionality, so you should use jscs and jshint together.
- JSCS Grunt Task: https://github.com/gustavohenke/grunt-jscs-checker
jscs can be installed using npm:
npm install jscs
To run jscs, you can use the following command from the project root:
./node_modules/.bin/jscs path[ path[...]]
jscs is configured using .jscs.json file, located in the project root.
Example configuration:
