Add new linter: codespell

Open ideaship opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

The spellcheckers currently in megalinter can be quite annoying because they flag every word they don't know. I found codespell a useful, light-weight alternative which only suggests corrections for words that look like a common misspelling.

Therefore, I would like to add codespell to megalinter.

We used to have one like that, misspell , but it was not maintained anymore so has been removed ^^

It seems actively maintained, so would you like to make the PR to add codespelll ? :)

I'll take a stab at it.

I disable SPELL for that very reason so would be good to have a better alternative available 😎
