Ruff
An extremely fast Python linter, written in Rust
An extremely fast Python linter, written in Rust. Ruff aims to be orders of magnitude faster than alternative tools while integrating more functionality behind a single, common interface. Ruff can be used to replace Flake8 (plus dozens of plugins), isort, pydocstyle, yesqa, eradicate, pyupgrade, and autoflake, all while executing tens or hundreds of times faster than any individual tool. Ruff is extremely actively developed and used in major open-source projects. Ruff can be configured through a pyproject.toml, ruff.toml, or .ruff.toml file (see: Configuration, or Settings for a complete list of all configuration options). Ruff supports over 500 lint rules, many of which are inspired by popular tools like Flake8, isort, pyupgrade, and others. Regardless of the rule's origin, Ruff re-implements every rule in Rust as a first-party feature. -

Pylint
It's not just a linter that annoys you!
Pylint is a static code analyzer for Python 2 or 3. The latest version supports Python 3.7.2 and above. Pylint analyses your code without actually running it. It checks for errors, enforces a coding standard, looks for code smells, and can make suggestions about how the code could be refactored. Projects that you might want to use alongside pylint include flake8 (faster and simpler checks with very few false positives), mypy, pyright or pyre (typing checks), bandit (security-oriented checks), black and isort (auto-formatting), autoflake (automated removal of unused import or variable), pyupgrade (automated upgrade to newer python syntax) and pydocstringformatter (automated pep257). Pylint isn't smarter than you: it may warn you about things that you have conscientiously done or checks for some things that you don't care about. During adoption, especially in a legacy project where pylint was never enforced. -

Ruff Visual Studio Code
A Visual Studio Code extension with support for the Ruff linter
Ruff Visual Studio Code is an official Visual Studio Code extension that integrates the Ruff Python linter and formatter directly into the development environment, enabling developers to maintain high code quality with minimal configuration. It provides real-time linting and formatting feedback as developers write code, helping catch errors, enforce style guidelines, and automatically fix issues where possible. The extension is built on top of Ruff’s high-performance Rust-based engine, which is significantly faster than traditional Python linting tools, allowing near-instant feedback even on large codebases. It supports both linting and formatting workflows, consolidating the functionality of multiple tools such as Flake8, Black, and isort into a single unified interface. -

Joker
Small Clojure interpreter, linter and formatter
Joker is a small interpreted dialect of Clojure written in Go. It is also a Clojure(Script) linter. Send HTTP requests, read and parse JSON, work with file system, start external processes etc. Checks for syntax errors, function arity mismatches, unresolvable symbols, unused namespaces, vars, bindings and much more. Joker uses .joke filename extension. Normally exits after executing the script, unless --exit-to-repl is specified before --file <filename> in which case drops into the REPL after the script is (successfully) executed. (Note use of --file, in this case, to ensure <filename> is not treated as a <socket> specification for the reply.) Our goal is to be suitable for scripting (lightweight, fast startup). This is something that Clojure is not good at and my personal itch I am trying to scratch. Also, to provide some tooling for Clojure and its dialects. Joker has linter mode which can be used for linting Joker, Clojure and ClojureScript code. -

lint-staged
Run linters on git staged files
Run linters against staged git files and don't let anything slip into your code base! Linting makes more sense when run before committing your code. By doing so you can ensure no errors go into the repository and enforce code style. But running a lint process on a whole project is slow, and linting results can be irrelevant. Ultimately you only want to lint files that will be committed. This project contains a script that will run arbitrary shell tasks with a list of staged files as an argument, filtered by a specified glob pattern. Linter commands work on a subset of all staged files, defined by a glob pattern. lint-staged uses micromatch for matching files. The concept of lint-staged is to run configured linter tasks (or other tasks) on files that are staged in git. lint-staged will always pass a list of all staged files to the task, and ignoring any files should be configured in the task itself. -

ktlint
An anti-bikeshedding Kotlin linter with built-in formatter
No configuration, which means no decisions to make, nothing to argue about and no special files to manage. While this might sound extreme, keep in mind that ktlint tries to capture (reflect) official code style from kotlinlang.org and Android Kotlin Style Guide (+ we respect your .editorconfig and support additional ruleset|s). Built-in formatter. So that you wouldn't have to fix all style violations by hand. Customizable output. plain (+ plain?group_by_file), JSON, HTML and check style reporters are available out-of-the-box. It's also easy to create your own. A single executable jar with all dependencies included. ktlint is a single binary with both linter & formatter included. All you need is to drop it in (no need to get overwhelmed while choosing among dozens of code style options). -

Ansible-lint
Best practices checker for Ansible
Ansible Lint is a command-line tool for linting playbooks, roles and collections aimed towards any Ansible users. Its main goal is to promote proven practices, patterns and behaviors while avoiding common pitfalls that can easily lead to bugs or make code harder to maintain. Ansible lint is also supposed to help users upgrade their code to work with newer versions of Ansible. Due to this reason we recommend using it with the newest version of Ansible, even if the version used in production may be older. As any other linter, it is opinionated. Still, its rules are the result of community contributions and they can always be disabled based individually or by category by each user. ansible-lint checks playbooks for practices and behavior that could potentially be improved. As a community-backed project ansible-lint supports only the last two major versions of Ansible. -

CSSLint
Automated linting of cascading stylesheets
CSSLint is an open-source CSS code quality tool originally written by Nicholas C. Zakas and Nicole Sullivan. A lint tool performs static analysis of source code and flags patterns that might be errors or otherwise cause problems for the developer. CSSLint is a tool to help point out problems with your CSS code. It does basic syntax checking as well as applying a set of rules to the code that look for problematic patterns or signs of inefficiency. The rules are all pluggable, so you can easily write your own or omit ones you don't want. You can integrate CSSLint into your favorite IDE to make checking your CSS code quality easy. In fact, some IDEs already have CSSLint built-in. Once you're familiar with the CSSLint command-line interface, the next step is to integrate it into your build system. -

Dockle
Container Image Linter for Security
Container Image Linter for Security, Helping build the Best-Practice Docker Image, Easy to start. You can install dockle with the asdf version manager with this plugin, which automates the process of installing (and switching between) various versions of github release binaries. With asdf already installed, run commands to install dockle. You can scan your built image with Dockle in Travis CI/CircleCI. Though, you can ignore the specified target checkpoints by using .dockleignore file. Or, if you just want the results to display and not let the test fail for this, specify --exit-code to 0 in dockle command. -

Haskell Dockerfile Linter
Dockerfile linter, validate inline bash, written in Haskell
A smarter Dockerfile linter that helps you build best practice Docker images. The linter parses the Dockerfile into an AST and performs rules on top of the AST. It stands on the shoulders of ShellCheck to lint the Bash code inside RUN instructions. You can run hadolint locally to lint your Dockerfile. You can download prebuilt binaries for OSX, Windows and Linux from the latest release page. However, if this does not work for you, please fall back to container (Docker), brew or source installation. Configuration files can be used globally or per project. -

Super-Linter
Combination of multiple linters to install as a GitHub Action
This repository is for the GitHub Action to run a Super-Linter. It is a simple combination of various linters, written in bash, to help validate your source code. The super-linter finds issues and reports them to the console output. Fixes are suggested in the console output but not automatically fixed, and a status check will show up as failed on the pull request. The design of the Super-Linter is currently to allow linting to occur in GitHub Actions as a part of continuous integration occurring on pull requests as the commits get pushed. It works best when commits are being pushed early and often to a branch with an open or draft pull request. There is some desire to move this closer to local development for faster feedback on linting errors but this is not yet supported. There is no need to set the GitHub Secret as it is automatically set by GitHub, it only needs to be passed to the action. -

wemake-python-styleguide
The strictest and most opinionated python linter ever!
Welcome to the strictest and most opinionated Python linter ever. wemake-python-styleguide is actually a flake8 plugin with some other plugins as dependencies. Ensures consistency - no matter who works on it, the end product will always be the same dependable code. Helps avoid potential bugs - strict rules make sure that you don't make common mistakes. Efficient code reviews - each piece of code has a similar familiar style and syntax. If it passes all the checks, there's little left to review! Fewer code revisions - strict linting ensures that you don't have to re-write the codebase again and again. Reduce code redundancy - Sometimes we write complex code as we are thinking in a certain way about a problem. The linter offers suggestions that can help simplify the code and eliminate redundant statements. The ultimate goal of this project is to make all people write exactly the same Python code. -

Angular ESLint
Monorepo for all the tooling related to using ESLint with Angular
Monorepo for all the tooling which enables ESLint to lint Angular projects. Follow the latest Getting Started guide on angular.io in order to install the Angular CLI. Create a new Angular CLI workspace in the normal way, optionally using any of the supported command line arguments and following the interactive prompts. As well as installing all relevant dependencies, the ng add command will automatically detect that you have a workspace with a single project in it, which does not have a linter configured yet. It can therefore go ahead and wire everything up for you! -

Bootlint
HTML linter for Bootstrap projects
Bootlint is a tool that checks for several common HTML mistakes in webpages that are using Bootstrap in a fairly "vanilla" way. Vanilla Bootstrap's components/widgets require their parts of the DOM to conform to certain structures. Bootlint checks that instances of Bootstrap components have correctly structured HTML. Optimal usage of Bootstrap also requires that your pages include certain <meta> tags, an HTML5 doctype declaration, etc.; Bootlint checks that these are present. Bootlint assumes that you are using Bootstrap's default class names in your webpage, as opposed to taking advantage of the "mixins" functionality of Less or Sass to map them to custom class names. If you are using mixins, Bootlint may report some false-positive warnings. However, there are some Bootlint checks that are applicable even if you are using mixins pervasively. -

Ethlint
(Formerly Solium) Code quality & Security Linter for Solidity
Ethlint (Formerly Solium) analyzes your Solidity code for style & security issues and fixes them. Standardize Smart Contract practices across your organization. Integrate with your build system. Deploy with confidence! Solium does not strictly follow Solidity Style Guide. The practices it enforces by default are best practices for the community at large. If you’re using vim with syntastic, and prefer to use a locally installed version of Solium (rather than a global version), you can install syntastic local solium to automatically load the local version in packages that have installed their own. Solium does not strictly adhere to Solidity Style Guide. It aims to promote coding practices agreed upon by the community at large. You can specify rules or plugins to apply as command line options. If you specify one, it overrides its corresponding configuration in the soliumrc file. -
