ShellCheck - A shell script static analysis tool
Copyright 2012-2015, Vidar 'koala_man' Holen Licensed under the GNU General Public License, v3
The goals of ShellCheck are:
-
To point out and clarify typical beginner's syntax issues, that causes a shell to give cryptic error messages.
-
To point out and clarify typical intermediate level semantic problems, that causes a shell to behave strangely and counter-intuitively.
-
To point out subtle caveats, corner cases and pitfalls, that may cause an advanced user's otherwise working script to fail under future circumstances.
ShellCheck is written in Haskell, and requires 2 GB of memory to compile.
Installing
On systems with Cabal:
cabal update
cabal install shellcheck
On Debian based distros:
apt-get install shellcheck
On Fedora based distros:
dnf install ShellCheck
On OS X with homebrew:
brew install shellcheck
On openSUSE:Tumbleweed:
zypper in ShellCheck
On other openSUSE distributions:
add OBS devel:languages:haskell repository from https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/devel:languages:haskell
zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/haskell/openSUSE_$(version)/devel:languages:haskell.repo
zypper in ShellCheck
or use OneClickInstall - https://software.opensuse.org/package/ShellCheck
ShellCheck is also available as an online service:
http://www.shellcheck.net
Building with Cabal
This sections describes how to build ShellCheck from a source directory.
First, make sure cabal is installed. On Debian based distros:
apt-get install cabal-install
On Fedora:
yum install cabal-install
On openSUSE:Tumbleweed:
zypper in cabal-install
On Mac OS X with homebrew (http://brew.sh/):
brew install cabal-install
On Mac OS X with MacPorts (http://www.macports.org/):
port install hs-cabal-install
On native Windows (https://www.haskell.org/platform/):
Download and install the latest version of the Haskell Platform.
Let cabal update itself, in case your distro version is outdated:
$ cabal update
$ cabal install cabal-install
With cabal installed, cd to the ShellCheck source directory and:
$ cabal install
This will install ShellCheck to your ~/.cabal/bin directory.
Add the directory to your PATH (for bash, add this to your ~/.bashrc):
export PATH="$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH"
Verify that your PATH is set up correctly:
$ which shellcheck
~/.cabal/bin/shellcheck
On native Windows, the PATH should already be set up, but the system
may use a legacy codepage. In cmd.exe, powershell.exe and Powershell ISE,
make sure to use a TrueType font, not a Raster font, and set the active
codepage to UTF-8 (65001) with chcp:
> chcp 65001
Active code page: 65001
In Powershell ISE, you may need to additionally update the output encoding:
> [Console]::OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8
Running tests
To run the unit test suite:
cabal configure --enable-tests
cabal build
cabal test
