Common Checkstyle Config
<img src="https://github.com/patrickfav/checkstyle-config/blob/master/misc/icon_sm.png?raw=true" align="right" alt="Logo" width="128" height="128">
Externalized checkstyle configuration which can be used in other Maven projects.
Description
This is a hand-picked, incrementally improved checkstyle configuration. It is more on the liberal side as I believe tools should work for the user not the other way around. Code style is subjective and this one might not be for you.
Usage
Add this maven project as dependency to load the external checkstyle configuration. The name of the config xml is checkstyle.xml
.
<build>
<plugins>
<!-- checkstyle -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
...
<dependencies>
...
<!-- add this lib as dependency to load external checkstyle config -->
<dependency>
<groupId>at.favre.lib</groupId>
<artifactId>checkstyle-config</artifactId>
<version>{latest_version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<configuration>
<configLocation>checkstyle.xml</configLocation>
</configuration>
</plugin>
...

IDE Integration

If you are using the checkstyle plugin for IntelliJ (which you should). You will find a copy of the configuration in the /target
folder called checkstyle-checker.xml
