Overview

A pipeline for validating HTML files using HTML Hint.

Install

Usage

Options

The following options are available to customize linting. They can be passed via an object or by storing within a .htmllintrc file and providing a path to the pipeline method.

These options are provided to gulp-htmllint. Please refer to that project's Options for more information.

Name	Type	Default	Description
rules	Object	see the included `.htmllintrc`	Object containing htmllint options, which are merged with the default rules within the `.htmllintrc` file.
config	String	`path/pipeline-validate-html/.htmllintrc`	A path to a custom config file.
plugins	Array	[]	An array of plugins that should be utilized during linting.
failOnError	Boolean	false	Determine whether the pipeline exits with an error code

Examples

Using default rules

// using default rules

var gulp = require('gulp');
var validateHtmlPipeline = require('pipeline-validate-html');


gulp.task('validate:html', function() {
  return gulp
    .src(['src/**/*.html'])
    .pipe(validateHtmlPipeline.validateHTML());
});

Custom file path

A custom file path can be provided which points to a config file with a complete or partial list of linting rules. These rules will be merged with the default rules found in the .htmllintrc file provied with this repo. This allows for a partial list of overrides to be provied, while retaining the default settings for those rules not provied.

NOTE: When providing a String, all additional options are kept as default

// using a custom file path

var gulp = require('gulp');
var validateHtmlPipeline = require('pipeline-validate-html');


gulp.task('validate:html', function() {
  return gulp
    .src(['src/**/*.html'])
    .pipe(validateHtmlPipeline.validateHTML('path/to/another/.htmllintrc'));
});

Config Object

// using a config object

var gulp = require('gulp');
var validateHtmlPipeline = require('pipeline-validate-html');

var lintOpts = {
  plugins: ['lint-plugin-name'],
  failOnError: true,
  rules: { /* rule definitions to override default */ },
  /* -- OR -- */
  config: 'path/to/.htmllintrc'
}

gulp.task('validate:html', function() {
  return gulp
    .src(['src/**/*.html'])
    .pipe(validateHtmlPipeline.validateHTML(lintOpts));
});

Providing Rules and a Config

Passing both rules and a config path will first merge the provided rules with the config file rules, then merged with the default options. Rules will follow the following priority:

options.rules <- options.config <- default config

This priority order allows for a custom config to be utilized across projects, while providing a means of tweaking rules on a per use basis.

// using a config object with both rules and config properties

var gulp = require('gulp');
var validateHtmlPipeline = require('pipeline-validate-html');

var lintOpts = {
  plugins: ['lint-plugin-name'],
  failOnError: true,
  rules: { /* rule definitions to override custom config */ },
  config: 'path/to/.htmllintrc' // this file will override the default options
}

gulp.task('validate:html', function() {
  return gulp
    .src(['src/**/*.html'])
    .pipe(validateHtmlPipeline.validateHTML(lintOpts));
});

Results

This pipeline returns a stream object. This object receives a stream with the HTML files to validate. You can call the validateHTML method to run the validation. The method will report if any issues were found during the process. If no issues are present, it will return the stream.
