cspell-action

Uses cspell to check code.

Installation

Example spellcheck.yaml

name: 'Check spelling'
on: # rebuild any PRs and main branch changes
  pull_request:
  push:

jobs:
  spellcheck: # run the action
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: streetsidesoftware/cspell-action@v6

Usage

- uses: streetsidesoftware/cspell-action@v6
  with:
    # Define glob patterns to filter the files to be checked. Use a new line between patterns to define multiple patterns.
    # The default is to check ALL files that were changed in in the pull_request or push.
    # Note: `ignorePaths` defined in cspell.json still apply.
    # Example:
    # files: |
    #   **/*.{ts,js}
    #   !dist/**/*.{ts,js}
    #
    # Default: ALL files
    files: ''

    # Check files and directories starting with `.`.
    # - "true" - glob searches will match against `.dot` files.
    # - "false" - `.dot` files will NOT be checked.
    # - "explicit" - glob patterns can match explicit `.dot` patterns.
    check_dot_files: explicit

    # The point in the directory tree to start spell checking.
    # Default: .
    root: '.'

    # Notification level to use with inline reporting of spelling errors.
    # Allowed values are: warning, error, none
    # Default: warning
    inline: warning

    # Reports flagged / forbidden words as errors.
    # If true, errors will still be reported even if `inline` is "none"
    treat_flagged_words_as_errors: false

    # Generate Spelling suggestions.
    suggestions: false

    # Determines if the action should be failed if any spelling issues are found.
    # Allowed values are: true, false
    # Default: true
    strict: true

    # Limit the files checked to the ones in the pull request or push.
    incremental_files_only: true

    # Path to `cspell.json`
    config: '.'

    # Log progress and other information during the action execution.
    # Default: false
    verbose: false

    # Use the `files` setting found in the CSpell configuration instead of `input.files`.
    use_cspell_files: false

Yarn 2 - PlugNPlay

To use dictionaries stored within a Yarn 2 workspace, there are two choices:

  1. Add "usePnP": true to the workspace cspell.json file. This tells cspell to search for the nearest .pnp.js or .pnp.cjs file and load it.

Example for medical terms:

{
  "usePnP": true,
  "import": ["@cspell/dict-medicalterms/cspell-ext.json"]
}
  1. Require the .pnp.js or .pnp.cjs in a cspell.config.js file. This must be done before importing any packages.
'use strict';
require('./.pnp.js').setup(); // or './.pnp.cjs'

/** @type { import("@cspell/cspell-types").CSpellUserSettings } */
const cspell = {
  description: 'Yarn 2 Aware cspell config',
  import: ['@cspell/dict-medicalterms/cspell-ext.json'],
};
module.exports = cspell;

Outputs

outputs:
  success:
    description: |
      "true" if no spelling issues were found, otherwise "false".
  number_of_files_checked:
    description: |
      The actual number of files that were checked.
  number_of_issues:
    description: |
      The number of issues found.
  number_of_files_with_issues:
    description: |
      The number of files that had issues.
  files_with_issues:
    description: |
      List of files with issues. Use `fromJSON()` to decode.
      The files are relative to the repository root.
  results:
    description: |
      The JSON encoded results.

Example Output:
