In Karma tests, there are a lot of global variables and functions, which JSHint complains about (it is integrated into my editor).
How can I tell JSHint to ignore all undefined variables in this one specific file? I would expect /* jshint undef: false */
to turn off these warning, but it doesn't.
In October 2013 jshint added a way to ignore blocks of code like this: // Code here will be linted with JSHint. /* jshint ignore:start */ // Code here will be ignored by JSHint. /* jshint ignore:end */ // Code here will be linted with JSHint.
Warning This option has been deprecated and will be removed in the next major release of JSHint. JSHint is limiting its scope to issues of code correctness. If you would like to enforce rules relating to code style, check out the JSCS project.
JSHint is a static analysis tool written in JavaScript that helps developers detect potential bugs in their JavaScript code and enforce their development team's JavaScript coding conventions. JSHint scans your program's source code and reports about commonly made mistakes and potential bugs.
The correct way to tell JSHint about globals is to use the globals
directive. For example:
/*globals globalFunction, anotherGlobal, oneMore */
This will prevent "{a} is not defined" warnings when JSHint encounters any of the listed identifiers.
Alternatively, if you really want to ignore all "not defined" warnings in that file, and you're using JSHint 1.0.0 or above, you can simply turn off that specific warning:
/*jshint -W117 */
Just add this rule in your .jshintrc file.
"-W117": true
This will ignore all the warnings which say, '* is not defined.'
