Photon Linter Library

Let's start off.

• Do you just like flashy lights?
  • You don't need this.
• Do you not make your own vehicles?
  • You don't need this.

What is this?

The photon linter library is a small collection of linters for Photon Sirens, Auto Components, Vehicles and such.

This means it finds dodgy stuff and tells you.

How does it work?

The code itself is written in lua (and built for version 5.1). Running the linter is simple.

lua componentlint.lua <file1> [<file2>, [<file3>, [...]]]

Pretty easy, right? You can also do sirenlint.lua for sirens.

This spits out a bunch of stuff.

    Components Checked: 112

    Tests Succeeded: 448
    Tests Failed: 0
    Assertions: 842

The important thing. "tests failed". If that's more than 0, it spits out what failed. That normally shows something needs fixing.
