Installation

[tillkruss]

Hi! codeclimate engines:enable scalastyle doesn't work. Are there installation instructions somewhere?

Hi @tillkruss, as we discussed over Twitter, this engine never reached a stable release and is not included in the engines manifest for either codeclimate.com or the CLI. You can run the engine locally by building it and running the CLI in dev mode:

$ git clone git@github.com:codeclimate-community/codeclimate-scalastyle.git && cd codeclimate-scalastyle
$ docker build -t codeclimate/codeclimate-scalastyle .
$ codeclimate analyze --dev -e scalastyle

If you or others are willing to pick this engine up, we'd love to see it reach a stable release!

What are the outstanding tasks? Why is it 'unstable'?

[dblandin]

@tdrozdowski Not sure what the outstanding tasks are for this engine.

Right now, it's missing an active maintainer.

Here's some general information regarding the engine lifecycle, and the path from beta to stable: https://docs.codeclimate.com/docs/code-climate-engine-lifecycle

One concrete step would be to QA the engine following our QA spreadsheet.

Happy to discuss this more in our community slack. You can get an invite by joining our developer program: https://codeclimate.com/dev_form
