filter-coffee helps you to lint your nodejs projects using eslint as mocha tests.

For more information about mocha go to https://mochajs.org/. For more information about eslint go to http://eslint.org/.

##Installation

$ npm install --save-dev filter-coffee

It is a good idea to include the following in your package json

{
    "eslint": "^1.8.0",
    "mocha": "^2.3.3",
    "chalk": "^1.1.1"
    }

##Usage

###Basic Usage

In your test file

var coffee = require ('filter-coffee');
//pass the array of files to validate
coffee.eslint(['**/*.js']);
coffee.eslint(['index.js','gulpfile.js']);

Do not forget to use mocha to run the tests

 mocha test.js

Optionally specify the path to the .eslintrc file if it is being used from some other location that is not the root of the directory

coffee.configFile('path/to/config/file');

filter-coffee uses the nodejs api of eslint. So, it is possible to pass a number of configuration options.

###Optional configuration options set path to the .eslintrc file. If not specified it expects that the file is at the root of the directory.

coffee.configFile ('path/to/config/file');

set path to the .eslintignore file. If not specified it expects that the file is at the root of the directory.

coffee.ignorePath ('path/to/ignore/file');

pass the environments

coffee.envs(["browser", "mocha"]);

specify the extension of the files that needs to be validated. If nothing is specified, the default of '.js' is considered.

coffee.extensions('.js');

pass an array of global variables. default is empty array.

coffee.globals([]);

pass the array of directories to load custom rules from (default: empty array)

coffee.rulePaths([]);

pass an object of rules to use (default: null)

coffee.rules({
                     semi: 2
                 }); 

specify the parser to be used (default: espree)

coffee.parser('espree');

set the cache to true to operate only on changed files

coffee.cache(true);

name of the file or directory where the cache will be stored (default: .estlintcache)

coffee.cacheLocation('path/to/cache/file');
