GitHub - purcell/flycheck-package: Flycheck checker for elisp package metadata (original) (raw)
flycheck-package
This library provides a flycheck checker for the metadata in Emacs Lisp files which are intended to be packages. That metadata includes the package description, its dependencies and more. The checks are performed by the separate package-lintlibrary.
Currently the checker is only activated if a ;; Package-Requires:,;; Version: or ;; Package-Version: header is present in the current buffer.
Installation
You'll need Emacs 24 for flycheck, so the recommended way to getflycheck-package is as a package from the MELPArepository. The version of flycheck-package there will always be up-to-date. There are also packages in MELPA Stable, which track the latest numbered tag.
If you insist on doing things the hard way, first ensure flycheckand package-lint are installed, then download this code and add the directory to your Emacs load-path.
Then, in your init.el:
(eval-after-load 'flycheck '(flycheck-package-setup))
