arity-lint(1)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so arity-lint is the main character here, and its whole job is literally Lint .R files. That's the gig. 🦋

This is the arity-lint(1) page from the General Commands Manual, bestie — consider yourself introduced. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

arity lint [--stdin-filename] [--fix] [--unsafe-fixes] [--select]
[--extend-select] [--ignore] [--exclude] [--force-exclude] [--output]
[-h|--help] [-V|--version] [PATH]

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

arity-lint lints .R files. No cap.

It reads stdin when you hand it -, or when paths are omitted and stdin is not a terminal. Very "read the room" of it, honestly.

Exit code vibe check:

• 0 — no findings. Clean, glowing, slay.
• 1 — findings (or files blocked by parse errors). Not the vibe, but useful.
• 2 — usage/IO error. 💀

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• --stdin-filename <PATH> — Filename to report for stdin input (for diagnostics). Give your stdin a name tag, basically. 🏷️
• --fix — Apply safe autofixes in place and report what remains.
• --unsafe-fixes — Also apply fixes that may change behavior (requires --fix).

🚨 bestie this one is literally gated: it requires --fix, and it can change behavior. Read that twice. No cap.

• --select <RULE_ID> — Base rule selection (overrides config select); repeatable or comma-separated.
• --extend-select <RULE_ID> — Additional rules to run alongside config or --select; repeatable or comma-separated.
• --ignore <RULE_ID> — Disable these rules (overrides config ignore); repeatable or comma-separated.
• --exclude <PATTERN> — Additional gitignore-style exclude patterns (repeatable or comma-separated); augments the configured exclude/extend-exclude.
• --force-exclude — Apply exclude patterns to files named explicitly on the command line too (they are normally always processed); for runners like pre-commit that pass staged files as arguments. Yes, even the explicitly named ones get the vibe check. 👑
• --output <OUTPUT> [default: pretty] — Output format.

Possible values:

• pretty — Annotated multi-line snippets (default; matches jarl/rustc-style output)
• concise — One finding per line (path:line:col: severity [rule] message)
• json — JSON array of diagnostics, for editor integration

• -h, --help — Print help (see a summary with '-h').
• -V, --version — Print version.
• [PATH] — Input file(s) or director(ies). Pass - for stdin, also read when paths are omitted and stdin is not a terminal.

Sign-off tea: the footer says source/version lint 0.26.0, page arity-lint(1) — and the date slot is not printed on this footer, so I'm not inventing one. 💖🎀🫶
