k6lint

Linter for k6 extensions

k6lint is a command line tool and a library for static analysis of the source of k6 extensions.

The contents of the source directory are used for analysis. If the directory is a git workdir, it also analyzes the git metadata. The analysis is completely local and does not use external APIs (e.g. repository manager API) or services.

The result of the analysis is compliance expressed as a percentage (0-100). This value is created as a weighted, normalized value of the scores of each checker. A compliance grade is created from the percentage value (A-F).

The detailed result of the checks are described in a JSON schema.

Checkers

  • module - checks if there is a valid go.mod
  • replace - checks if there is no replace directive in go.mod
  • readme - checks if there is a readme file
  • examples - checks if there are files in the examples directory
  • license - checks whether there is a suitable OSS license
  • git - checks if the directory is git workdir
  • versions - checks for semantic versioning git tags
  • build - checks if k6 can be built with the extension
  • smoke - checks if the smoke test script exists and runs successfully (smoke.js, smoke.ts, smoke.test.js or smoke.test.ts in the test,tests, examples, scripts or in the base directory)
  • codeowners - checks if there is a CODEOWNERS file (for official extensions) (in the .github or docs or in the base directory)
  • types - checks if the TypeScript API declaration file exists (index.d.ts in the docs, api-docs or the base directory)

CLI

k6lint

Linter for k6 extensions

Synopsis

Static analyzer for k6 extensions

k6lint analyzes the source of the k6 extension and try to build k6 with the extension.

By default, text output is generated. The --json flag can be used to generate the result in JSON format.

If the grade is C or higher, the command is successful, otherwise it returns an exit code larger than 0. This passing grade can be modified using the --passing flag.
