Within all these linters and auto-formatters I did not find checks that enforce, for example, the Function Comments of the Shell Style Guide by Google: All function comments should describe the intended API behaviour using: Description of the function. Globals: List of global variables used and modified. Arguments: Arguments taken. Outputs: Output to STDOUT or STDERR. Returns: Returned values other than the default exit status of the last command run. Hence, I thought we could make a Bash linting tool that verifies compliance with the Shell Style Guide by Google. To do so, a brief start was made here [2]. It identifies/lists elements in that style guide that may be verified automatically. Since Bash has been around longer than me, I think there may be some people better suited for the development of this enhanced linter. Hence, I thought it might be wise, for impact and usability, to share this idea here. What do you say, HN?
