Why it is Important to Update Linters and How to Do it Right

• changed-files

  6 1,561 9.8 TypeScript

  :octocat: Github action to retrieve all (added, copied, modified, deleted, renamed, type changed, unmerged, unknown) files and directories.

  

We need to add two additional steps. The first one is to retrieve all new files, and the second one is to run the enhanced config only on the new files. In this example the third-party GitHub Action called changed-files is used to obtain the new files. In the GitHub Marketplace for Actions, there is a considerable number of similar actions with similar functionality. You can choose the one that suits you best, as the functionality is more or less the same for all of them.

• enhanced-config

  1 0 4.1 JavaScript

You can find complete examples of using this approach here in the repository.

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io featured

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  

• stylelint

  45 10,854 9.6 JavaScript

  A mighty CSS linter that helps you avoid errors and enforce conventions.

  

Another common way to extend configs in linters is using the extends key in the configuration file. Let's take StyleLint as an example:

• ESLint

  385 24,432 9.7 JavaScript

  Find and fix problems in your JavaScript code.

  

All modern linters incorporate functionality for extending configurations, although the syntax for this is often implemented differently. Taking ESLint as an example, in its latest versions, the primary extension method is through the use of the spread operator. Let's take a look at an example:
