Checkma
Checkma, or checkmate, is a JavaScript static analysis tool which helps you to detect and investigate problems with your JavaScript code.
It tries to do this in a manner that is easy to use, configurable, correct, and tolerant towards different coding styles.
Installation
npm install -g checkma
Usage
checkma file.js # check a single script
checkma code/*.js # check all scripts in a directory
find . -name "*.js" | xargs checkma # check scripts in all directories
Features
Checkma is able to detect:
- Undefined variables
- New global variables
- Unreferenced variables
- Redeclared variables
- Syntax errors
Ariya Hidayat’s Esprima is used for the JavaScript parsing.
