llscheck

LLSCheck is a command-line utility that leverages the Lua Language Server for linting and static analysis of Lua code.

It delivers user-friendly reports, enhancing readability compared to raw JSON output. Moreover, LLSCheck seamlessly integrates with popular CI tools, i.e the exit code is a failure when the Lua Language Server finds issues.

CLI

Requirements

Lua Language Server must be installed locally and lua-language-server must be in your $PATH.

Installation

Using LuaRocks:

luarocks install llscheck

Usage

llscheck --help

Usage: llscheck [-h] [--completion {bash,zsh,fish}]
       [--checklevel {Error,Warning,Information,Hint}]
       [--configpath <configpath>] [<workspace>]

Generate a LuaLS diagnosis report and print to human-friendly format.

Arguments:
   workspace             The workspace to check. (default: .)

Options:
   -h, --help            Show this help message and exit.
   --completion {bash,zsh,fish}
                         Output a shell completion script for the specified shell.
   --checklevel {Error,Warning,Information,Hint}
                         The minimum level of diagnostic that should be logged. (default: Warning)
   --configpath <configpath>
                         Path to a LuaLS config file. (default: .luarc.json)
   --no-color            Do not add color to output.

Colored output

Colored text output is disabled if any of the following conditions are met:

• llscheck is not run from a terminal (TTY).
• The NO_COLOR environment variable is present and not empty.
• The --no-color argument is provided.

Docker

You can also run LLSCheck as a standalone Docker container. To build your own, execute the following command from the source directory of this project:

docker build -t llscheck https://github.com/jeffzi/llscheck.git

Optionally, you can pin the version of Lua Language Server with --build-arg LLS_VERSION=3.7.0.

Once you have a container you can run it with arguments:

# Run llscheck on the src directory
docker run -v "$(pwd):/data" llscheck --checklevel Information src

On an Apple Silicon chip M1+, you'll need to add the option --platform=linux/amd64 to both docker commands.

Version control integration

Lua Language Server must be installed locally and lua-language-server must be in your $PATH.

Use pre-commit. Once you have it installed, add this to the .pre-commit-config.yaml in your repository:

repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/jeffzi/llscheck
    rev: latest
    hooks:
      - id: llscheck
        # args: ["--checklevel", "Hint"]
