\fIUsing JSLint with a config file\fR
.
.P
  Start with the included example jslintrc file and customize your options per project
  or copy it to $HOME/\.jslintrc to apply your setting globally
.
.SH "INSTALLATION"
To install jslint globally, use
 npm install jslint \-g
.
.P
To install jslint locally, use
 npm install jslint
.
.P
When installed locally, jslint can be run as
 \./node_modules/\.bin/jslint
.
.SH "FILES"
jslint looks for the following config files at startup:
.
.P
 $HOME/\.jslintrc
 \./jslintrc
 \./\.jslintrc
.
.P
The format of a jslint options file is a JSON file containing a single object
where the keys are jslint option names and the values are the option argument;
use \fBtrue\fR to enable and \fBfalse\fR to disable boolean options\.  An example of a
valid option file is:
.
.P
 {
   "vars": true,
   "white": true,
   "maxlen": 100,
   "predef": "foo,bar,baz"
 }
.
.P
Comments are not allowed in option files\.
.
.SH "PRECEDENCE"
The order of precedence for options is as follows:
.
.IP "1" 4
in the $HOME/\.jslintrc
.
.IP "2" 4
in \./jslintrc or \./\.jslintrc
.
.IP "3" 4
on the command line
.
.IP "4" 4
in a /*jslint*/ comment
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
A higher number indicates a higher precedence, i\.e\. command line options
override options specified by an options file, and /*jslint*/ comments
in the file being examined have the highest precedence\.
.
.SH "EDITIONS"
You can now specify the edition of jslint with the \fI\-\-edition\fR option\.
.
.P
Future versions of this package may include newer editions of jslint;
to always use the latest edition of jslint, specify \-\-edition=latest:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
jslint \-\-edition=latest lib/*\.js
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The default edition of jslint will remain stable as long as the leading
two components of the version number are the same\.  New minor editions
may have a different default edition\.
.
.P
The previous version of this package (0\.1\.9) shipped an older edition
(2013\-02\-03) of jslint\.  To revert to that behavior but still have the
new config file features, upgrade to 0\.2\.1 of this package and specify \fBedition: \'2012\-02\-03\'\fR in your jslintrc file or \fB\-\-edition=2013\-02\-03\fR
on the command line\.
.
.P
We recommend the following practices:
.
.SS "If your project is in maintenance mode"
Choose an edition of jslint and hardcode it into your project\'s lint config files, e\.g\., \fBedition: \'2012\-02\-03\'\fR\|\. Specify a fixed version of jslint (e\.g\., "0\.2\.1") as a
devDependency in package\.json
.
.SS "If your project needs temporary stability (e\.g\., release phase)"
Use the default edition of jslint (no \fB\-\-edition\fR argument needed) and specify
a fixed minor version  (e\.g, "~0\.2") as a devDependency in package\.json
.
.SS "If you want the bleeding\-edge version"
Specify \fBedition: \'latest\'\fR and use any \'latest version\' behavior in package\.json,
e\.g\., "*" or ">0\.2\.1"
.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
jslint returns 1 if it found any problems, 0 otherwise\.

.SH "AUTHOR"

.P
This package is node\-jslint, which provides a command\-line interface for
running jslint using the nodejs platform\.  node\-jslint was written by Reid Burke
and is maintained by Reid Burke, Ryuichi Okumura, and Sam Mikes\.
.
.SH "BUGS"
There are no known bugs\.  Submit bugs to \fIhttps://github\.com/reid/node\-jslint/issues\fR
.
.P
Note that if you are reporting a problem with the way jslint works rather than the way
the command\-line tools work, we will probably refer you to the JSLint community \fIhttps://plus\.google\.com/communities/104441363299760713736\fR or the issue tracker at
