Linter that can be used in CI

[Ao-senXiong]

Thanks for this great tool. Is there any linter for format and code clean that can be used in CI that will fail the build process if the code is not format right?

Hi, you can use Qodana for that. https://www.jetbrains.com/qodana/

I made an example repo here https://github.com/mkurnikov/qodana-move

Hi @mkurniko, thanks! Do they also have formatter for move? Like command line tool that automatically format the code to the desired format

[mkurnikov]

There's a way to run the formatter from the plugin as a CLI application https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/command-line-formatter.html You'd also need to install Intellij-Move plugin either manually from the IDE, or from the CLI, see https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/install-plugins-from-the-command-line.html

It has a nasty limitation that it can't be executed if you have an IDE instance running already, so, i.e/ CLI pre-commit hooks doesn't really work how they're supposed to.

Hi @mkurnikov, thanks for sharing so much. I hope there is something more general work regards the IDE. Looks Qodana only does the checks but does not have the option to enforce the code style.

Could you expand on "enforcing the code style", what do you mean by that?
