Contributing

• New rules should be set to a warn level. Developers will expect new changes to NOT break their existing workflow, so unless your change is extremely usefull, default to warn. Expect discussion if you choose to use error.

• Look at existing rules and test structures when deciding how to name your rule. no_foo.coffee is used for many tests designed to catch specific errors, whereas foo.coffee is used for tests that are designed to enforce formatting and syntax.

Steps

1. Fork the repo locally.
2. Run npm install to get dependencies.
3. Create your rule in a single file as src/rules/your_rule_here.coffee, using the existing rules as a guide. You may examine the AST and tokens using http://asaayers.github.io/clfiddle/.
4. Add your test file my_test.coffee to the test directory.
5. Register your rule in src/coffeelint.coffee.
6. Run your test using coffee vowsrunner.coffee --spec test/your_test_here.coffee.
7. Run the whole tests suite using npm test.
8. Squash all commits into a single commit when done.
9. Submit a pull request.
