Linter-Puppet-Parsing

Build Status

Linter-Puppet-Parsing aims to provide functional and robust puppet parser validate linting functionality in Atom.

Installation

The Puppet or Puppet Enterprise Agent is required to be installed (preferably from a package or a gem) before using this. Version 4 or higher of Puppet is required and version 5.5.x is recommended. The Linter and Language-Puppet Atom packages are also required.

Usage

  • Avoid specifying arguments (e.g. --debug) that greatly affect the formatting of the parser output. These will cause issues.
  • The Puppet parser is slower than most linter executables and its errors may require a few seconds after saving to display.
  • The Puppet parser only throws errors for the first line of errors it encounters in a manifest so this linter only displays one line of errors at a time. However, multiple lines of warnings will be displayed.
  • On Windows, you have to specify the whole path to the puppet executable, even if it is in PATH, e.g. C:\Program Files\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin\puppet
