Unexpected token ILLEGAL

I think I'm following the instructions, but I'm getting the following error:

$ ./bin/dockerfilelint ../docker/Dockerfile
E:\dockerfilelint\lib\reference.js:4
    'description': `All commands in a Dockerfile require at least 1 argument.
                   ^

Running from Cygwin.

@sverhagen it's now possible to run this in a Docker container with:

sudo docker run -v `pwd`/Dockerfile:/Dockerfile dockerfilelint /Dockerfile

Will this work for your needs?

You can also use the stdin support added in #12! 😄

$ cat Dockerfile | docker run -i --rm dockerfilelint

The root cause of this issue was having a wrong version of Node, due to what the distro in question had to offer. This has been mitigated by using a Docker image! 👍
