Why

I wanted to separate Linter results from Test results. I don't believe that continuous integration should fail because of simple linting errors. This module is meant to post Linter results as a separate Status line on a GitHub commit or Pull Request.

Limitations

This module assumes you are working with Travis for CI, GitHub for SCM, and ESLint for linting. Pull requests welcome to extend support.

When linting, the module acts the same as if you called eslint . in your project root.

Setup

First you will need to create a Personal Access Token with the repo:status permission. Add your generated token to your repository's Environment Varibles in Travis-CI as TRAVIS_GITHUB_LINT_STATUS_TOKEN. You can access the Environment Variables in Travis-CI by going to your repository's Settings page on the Travis-CI website.

Next you will need to load this module during your Travis-CI execution. In your install section add npm install travis-github-lint-status. If you don't have an install section, you will need to add one (example in YAML):

install:
  - npm install;
    npm install travis-github-lint-status;

Then the actual call in the script section (again in YAML, replace npm run coverage with whatever your standard CI run script is):

script:
  - ./node_modules/travis-github-lint-status/index.js
    npm run coverage;

Notes

This module should only be run once per commit or pull-request. If your CI is configured to test on multiple platforms or Node versions, you should make sure this module only runs in one particular configuration.

An example:

language: node_js
node_js:
  - "node"
  - "4"
  - "0.12"
os:
  - linux
  - osx
install:
  - npm install;
    npm install travis-github-lint-status;
script:
  - if [ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "linux" ] && [ "$TRAVIS_NODE_VERSION" == "node" ]; then
    ./node_modules/travis-github-lint-status/index.js;
    fi;
    npm run coverage;
