cmakelint parses CMake files and reports style issues.
cmakelint requires Python.
To install cpplint from PyPI, run:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install cmakelint
Syntax: cmakelint [--config=file] [--filter=-x,+y] <file> [file] ...
filter=-x,+y,...
Specify a comma separated list of filters to apply
config=file
Use the given file for configuration. By default the file
$HOME/.cmakelintrc is used if it exists. Use the value "None" to use no
configuration file (./None for a file called literally None)
Only the option "filter=" is currently supported in this file.
Run the --filter= option with no filter to see available options. Currently
these are:
convention/filename
linelength
package/consistency
readability/logic
readability/mixedcase
readability/wonkycase
syntax
whitespace/eol
whitespace/extra
whitespace/indent
whitespace/mismatch
whitespace/newline
whitespace/tabs
An example .cmakelintrc file would be as follows:
filter=-whitespace/indent
With this file in your home directory, running these commands would have the same effect:
cmakelint.py CMakeLists.txt
cmakelint.py --filter=-whitespace/indent CMakeLists.txt
The program should exit with the following status codes:
- 0 if everything went fine
- 1 if an error message was issued
- 32 on usage error
