Introduction

When using checkstyle to scan a project, it will output all the problems in each file at once. This makes it difficult to perform an effective style check on the codes under development before cleaning up all the existing style problems.

In response to this pain point, I extended the checkstyle command-line tool to support style checks only on incremental changes of code lines.

Usage

Besides the original command-line options of checkstyle, this tool adds three new options: --git-dir, --include-staged-codes and --base-rev
- git-dir：Specify the root directory of the git repository. When using this option, the check job will only consider the files based on git-diff.
- include-staged-codes：With this option, the tool will also consider the changes in git staging area.
- base-rev：Specify the reference(commit or branch or tag) with which the latest commit(HEAD) will compare on the diff calculation. The default value of base-rev will be HEAD(the latest commit) if --include-staged-codes is used, otherwise the default is HEAD~(the first parent of the latest commit).

Run with the jar file

java -jar diff-checkstyle.jar -c /custom_checks.xml --git-dir ${your_git_repo_path} --base-rev HEAD~3 --include-staged-codes

Run with maven-exec-plugin

Execute mvn install to install the archive file to your local maven repository
Introduce the following configuration to pom.xml of your project

 <properties>
     <!-- the default value of base-rev，can be overwritten when running -->
     <checkstyle.base.rev>HEAD~</checkstyle.base.rev>
 </properties>

             </dependency>
         </dependencies>

Execute mvn exec:java -Dcheckstyle.base.rev=HEAD~10 to do the check job

Run when submitting a commit to your repository

Copy the pre-commit hook and the diff-checkstyle.jar file to the git hooks directory (${git_dir}/.git/hooks). This hook will do the check job whenever you submit a commit to your repository, and aborts the commit if it will introduce any incremental style problems.
Or you can run the following commands to install the hook

# Download the install.sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yangziwen/diff-checkstyle/master/hooks/install.sh > install.sh

# Install the hook to a specified git repository
sh install.sh --repo-path=${the_absolute_path_of_your_git_repository}

# Or install the hook globally
sh install.sh --global

You can enable or disable the check in the following way

# Enable the check
git config checkstyle.enabled true

# Disable the check
git config checkstyle.enabled false

You can set the exampt path via git config

git config checkstyle.exclude-regexp .+-client/.*

Others

Besides the built-in configurations sun_checks.xml and google_checks.xml provided by checkstyle, two other configurations, custom_checks.xml and custom_full_checks.xml which basically conform to the Alibaba code specification, have been added. You can also use your favorite style configuration by specifying the absolute file path with -c option.
Scanning with a changed file that has not been submitted and also not been added to the staging area may cause the modified code line calculated being inconsistent with the code line of the actual scanned file in the workspace, so please submit all changes first.
