Re: [Codenarc-developer] created a codenarc create-rule target

Hamlet,

That is very cool! A wonderful enhancement. I have pulled it into the SVN
trunk. I added a return() on line 7 to avoid an
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException on line 10 (just an annoyance when no
parameters are specified).

I have a couple questions:
(1) If the script file was named "codenarc.groovy" instead of "codenarc",
that would allow Windows users (who have the .groovy file association setup)
to run it by just executing "codenarc". But I guess that would make it more
verbose for unix users. Is there a good compromise?

(2) Should the "template" folder be under "src"? I'm not really sure what
the right answer is -- it could be argued that they are "source" files.

It will be a little challenging to write proper tests for that script, but I
may take a shot at that.

Thanks very much.
Chris

Hi all,

I just submitted a patch, and I think it will be really useful.

I want creating rules to be easier and not have to copy and paste
boilerplate. My intent is to be able to create a new rule live on stage at
some upcoming conferences.

The patch is attached to:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126575&aid=3005873&group_
id=250145

On Unix/Mac, you can run the following from the project:

  ./codenarc create-rule

You will enter a rule name and be prompted to select a category.

Then the base rule, rule test, ruleset xml, and properties will all be
created/updated for you. All you have to do is override a method in your
AstTransfromation and update the unit test.

Windows users can run
  groovy codenarc create-rule

Let me know how it works.
