Eslint files changed between branch and master in Travis CI












0















So basically when a branch is pushed I want to run a diff between the master branch and a target branch and then feed those files into eslint.



The command is:



git diff --name-only master..$TRAVIS_BRANCH | grep -E '.js$' | xargs npx eslint



It works when I use it locally and replace $TRAVIS_BRANCH with my current working branch.



However, when I use this on travis ci, the build process only checks out the branch its testing against and not master. So it comes out with the error



$ git diff --name-only master..$TRAVIS_BRANCH | grep -E '.js$' | xargs npx eslint
fatal: ambiguous argument 'master..test-fail': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.


How can I get travis CI to diff the files changed in a branch and run eslint only on those files?



.travis.yml



language: node_js
node_js:
- "lts/*"
- "node"
- "8"
jobs:
include:
- stage: lint
script: git diff --name-only master..$TRAVIS_BRANCH | grep -E '.js$' | xargs npx eslint

    Why don't you just lint the whole thing in CI?

  • Not my question but the reason is because the test would fail. I basically want to enforce that new changes meet the standards but if there are problems already don't fail the build

  • yeah but I still don't know how to complete what I want. Maybe I can use the git sparse checkout thing. not sure
