bashate is a linting tool designed to enforce the OpenStack style guide for bash scripts. It automatically checks code against established conventions, helping teams maintain consistency and readability across their shell scripting projects.
Key Features:

Use Cases:
  • Validating new bash scripts before merging code
  • Refactoring legacy shell scripts to meet modern standards

Alternatives:
  • shellcheck – Focuses on finding bugs and potential runtime issues, whereas bashate is primarily for enforcing coding style and formatting standards.
  • shfmt – Automatically formats code to a standard style, while bashate acts as a linter to report style violations without modifying files.
