Currently Supported Checks

Errors

Basic white space errors, for consistent indenting

• E001: check that lines do not end with trailing whitespace

• E002: ensure that indents are only spaces, and not hard tabs

• E003: ensure all indents are a multiple of 4 spaces

• E004: file did not end with a newline

• E005: unquoted $srcdir or $pkgdir

Structure Errors

A set of rules that help keep things consistent in control blocks. These are ignored on long lines that have a continuation, because unrolling that is kind of “interesting”

• E010: do not on the same line as for

• E011: then not on the same line as if or elif

• E012: heredoc didn’t end before EOF

• E020: Function declaration not in format ^function name {$

Obsolete, deprecated or unsafe syntax

Rules to identify obsolete, deprecated or unsafe syntax that should not be used

• E040: Syntax errors reported by bash -n

• E041: Usage of $[ for arithmetic is deprecated for $((

• W042: Local declaration hides errors

• W043: Arithmetic compound has inconsistent return semantics

• E044: Use [[ for =~,<,> comparisions

Style enforcer

• E060: Last line isn’t a newline

• E061: Multiple final newlines

• W062: Unsafe quotes
