foodcritic - lint tool for chef cookbooks
SYNOPSIS
foodcritic [options...] cookbook...
DESCRIPTION
foodcritic makes it easier to flag problems in your Chef cookbooks that will cause Chef to blow up when you attempt to converge. This is about faster feedback. Each cookbook path specified will be examined for common problems and poor style.
OPTIONS
-t, --tags TAGS Only check against rules with the specified tags. -f, --epic-fail TAGS Exit non-zero if any of the specified tags are matched. Use the pseudo-tag any to fail if any tag is matched. -c, --chef-version VERSION Only check against rules valid for this version of Chef. -B, --cookbook-path Cookbook path(s) to check. -C, --[no-]context Show lines matched against rather than the default summary. -E, --environment-path Environment path(s) to check. -I, --include PATH Additional rule file path(s) to load. -R, --role-path Role path(s) to check. -S, --search-grammar PATH Specify grammar to use when validating search syntax. (Default: the grammar of any installed Chef) -V, --version Display the foodcritic version.
