Taylor
⚠️ Taylor is DEPRECATED. Use SwiftLint instead.
A tool aimed to increase Swift code quality, by checking for conformance to code metrics.
Taylor uses SourceKitten to a more accurate AST representation and generates the final report in either Xcode, JSON, PMD or plain text formats.

You need to have Homebrew installed.
brew update
brew install taylor

taylor
alone with no arguments analyses .swift
files inside current folder.
Excludes
If you want to exclude some files or folders from checking create a new .yml
file and call Taylor with
-ef /path/to/file
argument.
Default filename is excludes.yml
and its default location is the folder
specified by --path
flag.
The following excluding name formats can be specified:
- "/path/to/file"
- "file"
- "Folder"
- "Folder/*"
- ".*Tests.*"
Rules
These are the code quality rules currently existing:
Excessive Class Length
Number of lines in a class must not exceed given limit. Default limit = 400 lines
.
Example: taylor -rc ExcessiveClassLength=100
.
Excessive Method Length
Number of lines in a method must not exceed given limit. Default limit = 20 lines
.
Example: taylor -rc ExcessiveMethodLength=10
.
Too Many Methods
Number of methods in a class must not exceed given limit. Default limit = 10 methods
.
Example: taylor -rc TooManyMethods=7
.
Cyclomatic Complexity
Cyclomatic Complexity number of a method must not exceed maximal admitted value. Default = 5
.
Example: taylor -rc CyclomaticComplexity=10
.
Nested Block Depth
Block Depth of a method must not exceed maximal admitted value. Default = 3
.
Example: taylor -rc NestedBlockDepth=7
.
N-Path Complexity
N-Path Complexity of a method must not exceed maximal admitted value. Default = 100
.
Example: taylor -rc NPathComplexity=50
.
Excessive Parameter List
Number of parameters given to a method must not exceed maximal admitted value. Default = 3
.
Example: taylor -rc ExcessiveParameterList=5
