This document describes how to run Checkstyle using the command line
tool. The latest version of Checkstyle can be found at <a
href="http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net">http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net</a>.
This command line tool is included in the Checkstyle distribution.
</p>
</section>
<section name="Command line usage">
<p>
<source>
java -D<property>=<value> \
com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.Main \
-c <configurationFile> \
[-f <format>] [-p <propertiesFile>] [-o <file>] \
[-t | --tree] [-T | --treeWithComments] [-J | treeWithJavadoc] [-j | --javadocTree] [-v] \
file...
</source>
</p>
<p>
Checkstyle will process the specified files and by default report
errors to standard out in plain format. Checkstyle requires a <a
href="config.html">configuration XML file</a> that configures the
checks to apply. Command line options are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<code>-c configurationFile</code> - specifies the location of the
file that defines the configuration modules. The location can either
be a filesystem location, or a <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/lang/resources.html#res_names">name</a> passed to the
ClassLoader.getResource() method.
</li>
<li>
<code>-f format</code> - specify the output
format. Options are <code> "plain"</code> for the <a
href="apidocs/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/DefaultLogger.html">DefaultLogger</a>
and <code>"xml"</code> for the <a
href="apidocs/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/XMLLogger.html">XMLLogger</a>.
Defaults to <code>"plain"</code>.
</li>
<li>
<code>-p propertiesFile</code> - specify a
properties file to use.
</li>
<li>
<code>-o file</code> - specify the file to output
to.
</li>
<li>
<code>-t, --tree</code> - print Abstract Syntax Tree(AST) of the checked file. The option
cannot be used other options and requires exactly one file to run on to be specified.
</li>
<li>
<code>-T, --treeWithComments</code> - print Abstract Syntax Tree(AST) with comment nodes of the checked file. The option
cannot be used other options and requires exactly one file to run on to be specified.
</li>
<li>
<code>-J, --treeWithJavadoc</code> - print Abstract Syntax Tree(AST) with Javadoc nodes and comment nodes
of the checked file. The option cannot be used other options and requires exactly one file to run on to be specified.
</li>
<li>
<code>-j, --javadocTree</code> - print Parse Tree of the Javadoc comment.
The file have to contain <b>only Javadoc comment content</b> without including '/**' and '*/' at the beginning and at the end respectively.
For example:
MyTestFile.javadoc
<source>
* Test method.
* @return true
</source>
The option
cannot be used other options and requires exactly one file to run on to be specified.
</li>
<li>
<code>-d, --debug</code> - Print all debug logging of CheckStyle utility.
</li>
<li>
<code>-e, --exclude excludedDirectory</code> - Directory to exclude from
CheckStyle. The directory <b>must be</b> the full, absolute path. Multiple excludes are
allowed.
</li>
<li>
<code>-v</code> - print product version and exit. Any other option is ignored.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that the <code>-n packageNamesFile</code>
option has been dropped for Checkstyle 5.0, because of
significant changes regarding package name file handling. See <a
href="config.html#Packages"/> for details.
</p>
<p>
Set the properties for <a href="config.html#Properties">expanded
property values</a> by either by assigning system properties using the
<code>-D<property>=<value></code> arguments to java or
specifying a property file using the <code>-p</code> option. If a
property file is specified, the system properties are ignored.
</p>
</section>
<section name="Download and Run">
<p>
It is possible to run Checkstyle directly from the JAR file using
the <code>-jar</code> option. Download latest <a href="http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/checkstyle/checkstyle/${projectVersion}/checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar">
checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar</a>.
An example of run would be:
<source>
java -jar checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar -c /sun_checks.xml MyClass.java
java -jar checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar -c /google_checks.xml MyClass.java
</source>
It is recommended to use configuration files that are embeded in jar files, but latest configuration files are there:
<a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/master/src/main/resources/sun_checks.xml">sun_checks.xml</a>
<a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/master/src/main/resources/google_checks.xml">google_checks.xml</a>
</p>
<p>
To run <a href="writingchecks.html#The_Checkstyle_SDK_Gui">Checkstyle UI viewer</a> for AST tree directly from the JAR file using
the <code>-jar</code> option. Download latest <a href="http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/checkstyle/checkstyle/${projectVersion}/checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar">
checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar</a>.
An example of run would be (path to java file is optional):
<source>
java -cp checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.gui.Main MyClass.java
</source>
</p>
</section>
<section name="Run after compilation">
<p>
Download and compile:
<source>
git clone https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle.git
cd checkstyle
mvn clean compile
</source>
Run validation with arguments:
<source>
mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.Main" \
-Dexec.args="-c /sun_checks.xml src/main/java "
</source>
Run UI application for file :
<source>
mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.gui.Main" \
-Dexec.args="src/main/java/com/puppycrawl/tools/checkstyle/Checker.java"
</source>
Build all jars, and launch CLI from new build:
<source>
mvn clean package -Passembly
java -jar target/checkstyle-X.X-SNAPSHOT-all.jar -c /sun_checks.xml MyClass.java
</source>
</p>
</section>
<section name="Usage by Classpath update">
<p>
The easiest way is to include
<a href="http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/checkstyle/checkstyle/${projectVersion}/checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar">checkstyle-${projectVersion}-all.jar</a> in the
<a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/tools/windows/classpath.html#sthref10">classpath</a>. Alternatively, you must include the
<code>compile</code> third party dependencies listed in
<a href="dependencies.html">Project Dependencies</a> in the
classpath.
