About:
editorconfig-checker is a command-line tool that validates whether your source code files adhere to the rules defined in your .editorconfig file. It scans your project and reports any discrepancies in indentation, line endings, or character sets. This ensures consistent code style across your team and prevents subtle formatting errors from being committed.
Key Features:
  • Fast file scanning and validation
  • Supports multiple programming languages and file types
  • Easy integration into CI/CD pipelines
  • Ignores files specified in .gitignore by default
Use Cases:
  • Enforcing consistent coding standards across a development team
  • Validating legacy codebases before migration or refactoring
  • Automating style checks in GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
Alternatives:
  • pre-commit – A versatile framework for managing git hooks; editorconfig-checker can be used as a hook within it.
  • EditorConfig IDE plugins – IDEs enforce rules on save; this tool provides a standalone, CI-friendly verification method.
