Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

GScan

Checks Ghost themes for errors, deprecations, best practices and looks to see which features are supported. Aims to generate a compatibility report and feature listing for themes.

Usage

There are 3 ways to use gscan to validate your theme:

1. Web usage

Visit https://gscan.ghost.org and upload your zip to our online version of Gscan.

2. CLI usage

Install using yarn / npm:

yarn global add gscan / npm install -g gscan

To run a local directory through the checks:

gscan /path/to/theme/directory

To run a local zip file through the checks:

gscan /path/to/theme.zip -z

3. Lib usage

Install using yarn/npm and then:

var gscan = require('gscan');

gscan.checkZip({
    path: 'path-to-zip',
    name: 'my-theme'
}).then(function (result) {
    console.log(result);
}).catch(function(err) {
    console.log(err);
});

Result types:

  • Errors: these are issues which will cause your theme to not work properly. These must be fixed.
  • Warnings: these are usually related to deprecated features. These should be fixed.
  • Recommendations: these are advisories about best practice. Fixing these will improve your theme.
  • Features: detected features which may impact on compatibility. Nothing to do :)

Still To Do:
