Linter is not producing warnings

[zeke]

Given the following:

const standard = require('.').linter({eslint: require('eslint')})
standard.lintText('var a = 1;', function(err, res) { console.dir(res) })

I would expect to see something about an unneeded semicolon, but instead the result is:

{ results: 
   [ { filePath: '<text>',
       messages: [],
       errorCount: 0,
       warningCount: 0 } ],
  errorCount: 0,
  warningCount: 0 }

Am I doing it wrong?

Am I doing it wrong?

Yes. I was.

Turns out all I needed was standard, not standard-engine:

require('standard').lintText('var a = 1;', function(err, res) { console.dir(res) })

Yep, sorry if this was confusing. standard-engine is more generic. Meant for people to create their own standard-like modules. This core is shared by standard and semistandard, for example.

Yeah I should have RTFM. I saw the name standard-engine and made some quick assumptions. Happy that vanilla standard works for me! I made this: https://github.com/zeke/standard-markdown
