lint-staged.sh

library0.6.9jsnpmunverified

A minimal shell script to run linters/formatters against files staged in Git. Version 0.6.9 is the latest stable release, with no scheduled cadence. Unlike the npm lint-staged package, this script has no dependencies, no configuration file, and no automatic backup or reset on failure. It simply evaluates a command with the list of staged files filtered by glob patterns. Designed for users who want a lightweight, transparent alternative to lint-staged. No runtime, no Node.js required; works in any Bourne-compatible shell.

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

lint-staged.sh

✓ npx skills install https://github.com/lint-staged/lint-staged.sh

✗ npm install lint-staged.sh

Installing via npm is optional; the primary method is via skills.sh or copying the script directly.

pre-commit hook

✓ #!/bin/sh lint-staged.sh "command" "*.js" "*.json" git update-index --again

✗ #!/bin/sh lint-staged.sh "command" "*.js" *.json

Glob patterns should be quoted to prevent shell expansion before the script sees them.

usage

✓ lint-staged.sh "eslint --fix" "*.js"

✗ lint-staged.sh eslint --fix *.js

The command and globs must be separate arguments. Run as a shell script, not an npm package.

Shows how to install and use lint-staged.sh with npx prettier to format staged files, then update git index.

#!/bin/sh # Install lint-staged.sh via skills.sh npx skills install https://github.com/lint-staged/lint-staged.sh # Example: format staged JavaScript and Markdown files with prettier # Run this in a pre-commit hook lint-staged.sh "npx prettier --write" "*.js" "*.md" git update-index --again

Debug

Known issues

gotchaGlob patterns are not automatically escaped; shell expansion may cause unexpected behavior.

fix

Always quote glob patterns: "*.js" instead of *.js

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaNo automatic staging of changes after linter fixes; you must manually run 'git update-index --again'.

fix

Add 'git update-index --again' after the lint-staged.sh command in your hook.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaThe script does not revert changes on failure; files may be partially modified if the linter fails.

fix

Consider wrapping in a backup mechanism or use lint-staged npm package if rollback is needed.

affects: >=0.0.0
