Global (not recommended)

Installation:

Usage:

1. Go to folder where to start checking
2. svelte-check

Args:

--workspace <path> Path to your workspace. All subdirectories except node_modules and those listed in --ignore are checked

--output <human|human-verbose|machine>

--watch Will not exit after one pass but keep watching files for changes and rerun diagnostics

--ignore <path1,path2> Files/folders to ignore - relative to workspace root, comma-separated, inside quotes. Example: --ignore "dist,build"

--fail-on-warnings Will also exit with error code when there are warnings

--compiler-warnings <code1:error|ignore,code2:error|ignore> A list of Svelte compiler warning codes. Each entry defines whether that warning should be ignored or treated as an error. Warnings are comma-separated, between warning code and error level is a colon; all inside quotes. Example: --compiler-warnings "css-unused-selector:ignore,unused-export-let:error"

Machine-Readable Output

Setting the --output to machine will format output in a way that is easier to read by machines, e.g. inside CI pipelines, for code quality checks, etc.

Each row corresponds to a new record. Rows are made up of columns that are separated by a single space character. The first column of every row contains a timestamp in milliseconds which can be used for monitoring purposes. The second column gives us the "row type", based on which the number and types of subsequent columns may differ.

The first row is of type START and contains the workspace folder (wrapped in quotes).

Example:

1590680325583 START "/home/user/language-tools/packages/language-server/test/plugins/typescript/testfiles"

Any number of ERROR or WARNING records may follow. Their structure is identical and tells us the filename, the line and column numbers, and the error message. The filename is relative to the workspace directory. The filename and the message are both wrapped in quotes.

Example:

1590680326283 ERROR "codeactions.svelte" 1:16 "Cannot find module 'blubb' or its corresponding type declarations."
1590680326778 WARNING "imported-file.svelte" 0:37 "Component has unused export property 'prop'. If it is for external reference only, please consider using `export const prop`"

The output concludes with a COMPLETED message that summarizes total numbers of files, errors, and warnings that were encountered during the check.

Example:

1590680326807 COMPLETED 20 FILES 21 ERRORS 1 WARNINGS

If the application experiences a runtime error, this error will appear as a FAILURE record.

Example:

1590680328921 FAILURE "Connection closed"
