Linter frontend and commands

This file defines the linter commands which spot common mistakes in the code.

• #lint: check all declarations in the current file
• #lint in Pkg: check all declarations in the package Pkg (so excluding core or other projects, and also excluding the current file)
• #lint in all: check all declarations in the environment (the current file and all imported files)

For a list of default / non-default linters, see the "Linting Commands" user command doc entry.

The command #list_linters prints a list of the names of all available linters.

You can append a * to any command (e.g. #lint* in Std) to omit the slow tests.

You can append a - to any command (e.g. #lint- in Std) to run a silent lint that suppresses the output if all checks pass. A silent lint will fail if any test fails.

You can append a + to any command (e.g. #lint+ in Std) to run a verbose lint that reports the result of each linter, including the successes.

You can append a sequence of linter names to any command to run extra tests, in addition to the default ones. e.g. #lint doc_blame_thm will run all default tests and doc_blame_thm.

You can append only name1 name2 ... to any command to run a subset of linters, e.g. #lint only unused_arguments in Std

You can add custom linters by defining a term of type Linter with the @[std_linter] attribute. A linter defined with the name Std.Tactic.Lint.myNewCheck can be run with #lint myNewCheck or #lint only myNewCheck. If you add the attribute @[std_linter disabled] to linter.myNewCheck it will be registered, but not run by default.

Adding the attribute @[nolint doc_blame unused_arguments] to a declaration omits it from only the specified linter checks.

inductive Std.Tactic.Lint.LintVerbosity : Type

Verbosity for the linter output.

• low: Std.Tactic.Lint.LintVerbosity

  low: only print failing checks, print nothing on success.

• medium: Std.Tactic.Lint.LintVerbosity

  medium: only print failing checks, print confirmation on success.

• high: Std.Tactic.Lint.LintVerbosity

  high: print output of every check.

Equations

• Std.Tactic.Lint.instInhabitedLintVerbosity = { default := Std.Tactic.Lint.LintVerbosity.low }

Equations

def Std.Tactic.Lint.getChecks (slow : Bool) (useOnly : Bool) : Lean.CoreM (Array Std.Tactic.Lint.NamedLinter)

getChecks slow extra use_only produces a list of linters. extras is a list of names that should resolve to declarations with type linter. If useOnly is true, it only uses the linters in extra. Otherwise, it uses all linters in the environment tagged with @[std_linter]. If slow is false, it only uses the fast default tests.

Runs all the specified linters on all the specified declarations in parallel, producing a list of results.
