What’s this?
JSLintMate is a quick and easy way to check your code with JSLint (Douglas Crockford’s powerful JS code quality tool) or JSHint (a community-driven version of JSLint that’s more tolerant of common JS patterns).
No more copy-pasting your JS into a browser to check it. JSLintMate runs within TextMate while you code, and works offline.
JSLintMate is designed for TextMate 1.x and TextMate 2.
Setup
Download JSLintMate.tmbundle and double-click it. TextMate installs it automatically—that’s all.
TextMate 2 users: If you’re running TextMate 1.x and TextMate 2 side-by-side, check the docs for more setup notes.
Usage
JSLintMate has two modes:
Quick mode
Command-S automatically checks your JS, and reports any problems with a tooltip.
Full mode
Hit control-L to check your code with JSLint, or control-shift-L to use JSHint. (These shortcuts are customizable, of course.)
A list of problems appears, if any. Click to jump to that line, or navigate with the arrow keys + return.
Options
Have some favorite JSLint/JSHint options, like finding unused variables and ignoring whitespace? Drop them into an options file, either in your repository or on your own computer. This is great for:
- Sharing coding standards with teammates, even if they use lint tools outside of TextMate.
- Using the same options in automated testing and continuous integration systems.
- Keeping your own coding standards across projects.
More info is in the docs.
