Please migrate your projects to ESLint and use the VS Code ESLint extension.
Installation and Usage
The JSCS Linter is available in the Visual Studio Code Gallery. To install, press F1 and
select Extensions: Install Extensions and then search for and select JSCS Linting.
Install JSCS in your workspace (or globally using the -g switch).
# install locally to the workspace
npm install jscs
Once installed, the JSCS Linter will automatically analyze your JavaScript files and return style warnings
based on the rules you define in a .jscsrc file or in your settings.
Configuring the JSCS Linter
The best way to configure how the linter flags issues in your code is to create a .jscsrc file in the
root of your workspace. The VS Code JSCS Linter will look for this file first and if no .jscsrc file is found
it will look into your custom Settings.
Here are the available settings options:
Enable or disable the JSCS Linter for JavaScript files in this workspace.
"jscs.enable": boolean
The JSCS preset to use, possible values: airbnb, crockford, google, grunt, idiomatic, jquery, mdcs, node-style-guide, wikimedia, wordpress, yandex.
"jscs.preset": string
Disable the JSCS Linter if no .jscsrc configuration file is found, default is false.
The JSCS Linter is a great way to learn how to create extensions for VS Code.
We also love enhancements and bug fixes! Here’s how to get started:
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-jscs
cd vscode-jscs/jscs
npm install
cd ../jscs-server
npm install
Developing the Server
Open VS Code on the jscs-server folder
Run npm run compile or npm run watch to build the server and copy it into the jscs folder
To debug, press F5 once the extension is loaded, this will attach the debugger to the server.
If you try to attach too soon you will get a timeout error from the debugger.
Developing the Extension
Open VS Code on the jscs folder
To run, press F5 to build the app, launch the extension environment, and attach a debugger
