Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt >=0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install @linagora/grunt-lint-pattern --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('@linagora/grunt-lint-pattern');

The "lint_pattern" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named lint_pattern to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  lint_pattern: {
    your_target: {
      options: {
        rules: [
          {
            pattern: /console\./;
            message: 'Calling "console." is not allowed.'
          },
        ],
      },
      files: {
        '**.js',
      },
    },
    your_target: {
      options: {
        rules: [
          {
            pattern: /moz-border-radius/;
            message: 'Do not use vendor prefixes for the border-radius property.'
          },
          {
            pattern: /!important/;
            message: 'Do not use "!important".'
          },
        ],
      },
      files: {
        '**.css',
      },
    },
  },
})
