Quick check on Linting tools for Apache Royale
Hi everyone,
It's been a while since I used any code quality tools with Apache Royale.
I'm keen for some updated suggestions if you have any... to be clear: this
is about the actionscript/css/mxml, not about the generated javascript.
I worked on a project some years ago (when it was still FlexJS) where we
used SonarQube, and that was working at the time (as part of a maven build)
and was useful (although I think it may have been limited to actionscript
code blocks inside mxml and not working with mxml itself...).
Has anyone used SonarQube or perhaps tried to use Flex PMD or anything else
recently, with Apache Royale? Would be keen to hear your thoughts and/or
recommendations!
Thanks,
Greg

Hi Josh,
That does sound like a great idea to me.
I'm not sure to what degree I could help, but if you do get to the point
where you want to work on such a thing, and assuming I can find the time,
I'd be happy to help.

I wonder if it makes sense to create a new linter for Royale. Similar to
the new formatter that I recently created, where there could be a command
line interface and a Java API for integration into tooling.

Greg,
Currently we are still using v9.3 of SonarQube and v18 for the JDK.

Mark, would you mind sharing what version of SonarQube you are using?
Our experience is that a recent version (needed for java 17) does not seem to work for actionscript files, so we'd be keen to hear what version you are using.
Thanks,
Greg

We actually still use SonarQube for AS file scanning as AS3 does not have a lot of actively developed utilities in this area. You do have to customize their rules list to be more appropriate, but it does give you a 70% solution. You are correct about it not working on any code structure inside of the MXML files themselves. Run the MXML files lean on code and rely on controllers/VO/utility in pure AS files to give you the most benefit from it.
