Sherif: Opinionated, zero-config linter for JavaScript monorepos

---

![Cover](https://github.com/QuiiBz/sherif/blob/main/assets/cover.png)

## About

Sherif is an opinionated, zero-config linter for JavaScript monorepos. It runs fast in any monorepo and enforces rules to provide a better, standardized DX.

## Features

- ✨ **PNPM, NPM, Yarn...**: sherif works with all package managers
- 🔎 **Zero-config**: it just works and prevents regressions
- ⚡ **Fast**: doesn't need `node_modules` installed, written in 🦀 Rust

## Installation

Run `sherif` in the root of your monorepo to list the found issues. Any error will cause Sherif to exit with a code 1:

```bash
# PNPM
pnpm dlx sherif@latest
# NPM
npx sherif@latest
```

We recommend running Sherif in your CI once [all errors are fixed](#autofix). Run it by **specifying a version instead of latest**. This is useful to prevent regressions (e.g. when adding a library to a package but forgetting to update the version in other packages of the monorepo).

GitHub Actions example

```yaml
name: Sherif
on:
pull_request:
jobs:
check:
name: Run Sherif
runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: actions/setup-node@v3
with:
node-version: 20
- run: npx [email protected]
```

## Autofix

Most issues can be automatically fixed by using the `--fix` (or `-f`) flag. Sherif will automatically run your package manager's `install` command (see [No-install mode](#no-install-mode) to disable this behavior) to update the lockfile. Note that autofix is disabled in CI environments (when `$CI` is set):

```bash
sherif --fix
```

### No-install mode

If you don't want Sherif to run your packager manager's `install` command after running autofix, you can use the `--no-install` flag:

```bash
sherif --fix --no-install
```

## Rules

You can ignore a specific rule by using `--ignore-rule ` (or `-r `):

```bash
# Ignore both rules
sherif -r packages-without-package-json -r root-package-manager-field
```

You can ignore all issues in a package by using `--ignore-package ` (or `-p `):

```bash
# Ignore all issues in the `@repo/tools` package
sherif -p @repo/tools
# Ignore all issues for packages inside `./integrations/*`
sherif -p "./integrations/*"
```

> **Note**
> Sherif doesn't have many rules for now, but will likely have more in the future (along with more features).

#### `empty-dependencies` ❌

`package.json` files should not have empty dependencies fields.

#### `multiple-dependency-versions` ❌

A given dependency should use the same version across the monorepo.

You can ignore this rule for a specific dependency and version or all versions of a dependency if it's expected in your monorepo by using `--ignore-dependency ` / `--ignore-dependency ` (or `-i ` / `-i `):

```bash
# Ignore only the specific dependency version mismatch
sherif -i [email protected] -i [email protected]

# Completely ignore all versions mismatch of these dependencies
sherif -i react -i next
```

#### `non-existant-packages` ⚠️

All paths defined in the workspace (the root `package.json`' `workspaces` field or `pnpm-workspace.yaml`) should match at least one package.

#### `packages-without-package-json` ⚠️

All packages matching the workspace (the root `package.json`' `workspaces` field or `pnpm-workspace.yaml`) should have a `package.json` file.

#### `root-package-dependencies` ⚠️

The root `package.json` is private, so making a distinction between `dependencies` and `devDependencies` is useless - only use `devDependencies`.

#### `root-package-manager-field` ❌

The root `package.json` should specify the package manager and version to use. Useful for tools like corepack.

#### `root-package-private-field` ❌

The root `package.json` should be private to prevent accidentaly publishing it to a registry.

#### `types-in-dependencies` ❌

Private packages shouldn't have `@types/*` in `dependencies`, since they don't need it at runtime. Move them to `devDependencies`.

#### `unordered-dependencies` ❌

Dependencies should be ordered alphabetically to prevent complex diffs when installing a new dependency via a package manager.
