About

Goal

The goal of this repository is to provide a common place for (pre-commit) hooks used to verify the quality of deliverables (such as docuemntation) produced by 3mdeb.

Usage

  • You need to clone this repository to obtain a local copy of tools and configuration files. You can then use these tools against any other repository/file you need.
git clone https://github.com/3mdeb/hooks.git
  • Refer to the section below for description of the individual tools.

Current state

At present, this repository does not meet the above goal (yet) ;)

We need to figure out how to easily setup and maintain hooks over multiplte repositories. Until then, we can simply require to run selected tools from this repository before publishing content.

This repository does provide some configs and scripts, which can be used to verify the basic quality of deliverables.

Please refer to the below sections to learn more about currently available tools.

Markdown

The goal of this tool is to verify the formatting guidelines of markdown file, which we primarily use when creating documentation. All documentation created by 3mdeb must adhere to these guidelines (unless there are project-specific guidelines stating otherwise).

You can refer to the .markdownlint.yaml for guidelines description.

  • Run markdown linter on a file README.md:
./markdown.sh check README.md
  • Automatically fix some of the problems in README.md file:

This can significantly speed up quality improvements of the document. But keep in mind that you need to review automatic fixes before publishing them, of course.

./markdown.sh fix README.md

namespell

namespell searches files for proper nouns, where the capitalization (or lack thereof) of letters is important (e.g. Zarhus or coreboot) and checks if they are spelled correctly. When the -f/--fix flag is passed, the tool automatically fixes incorrectly spelled words.

There are several ways to ignore unwanted checks:

  • To exclude entire files/directories from being checked specify an exclude section in .pre-commit-config.yaml.

  • Inline ignores are also supported

Inline ignore statements are comments in a file that tell namespell to ignore specific rules/lines. They have the following structure:

<comment start> namespell:disable <rule1, rule2>

If no rules are specified, all of them will be ignored.

You can use inline ignores to disable checks for an entire file or specific lines. If the statement is placed in the first line of the file, it will apply to the whole file. If it's placed at the end of a specific line, it will only apply to that line. The example below illustrates this.

# namespell:disable Zarhus

zarhus dasharo
zarhus dasharo Coreboot # namespell:disable Dasharo
dasharo Coreboot
somefile:3: 'dasharo' should be 'Dasharo'
somefile:4: 'Coreboot' should be 'coreboot'
somefile:5: 'dasharo' should be 'Dasharo'
somefile:5: 'Coreboot' should be 'coreboot'

As you can see, the spelling of Zarhus is ignored throughout the whole file and the spelling of Dasharo is only ignored in line 4.
