Lesson 16 / 25
CI/CD Pipeline Integration
Add ESLint and Prettier checks to your CI/CD pipeline.
Pipeline enforcement
Running checks in CI prevents bad code from merging. GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Jenkins all support ESLint. Fail the build if linting fails.
GitHub Actions workflow
Add a workflow file to lint and format-check on pull requests.
# .github/workflows/lint.yml
name: Lint & Format Check
on: [pull_request, push]
jobs:
lint:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- uses: actions/setup-node@v3
with:
node-version: '18'
- run: npm ci
- run: npm run lint
- run: npx prettier --check .
Output:
Linting and format checks pass on CI
Separate checks for clarity
Run lint and format checks separately in CI (different job steps). This makes it clear which check failed and helps team debug issues faster.
Quick check
Quick check: Why run linting in CI?
- To prevent bad code from merging into main.
- To speed up development.
- To reduce file size.
Answer
To prevent bad code from merging into main. — CI linting is a safety net that catches issues automated tools might miss and enforces standards.
