# ShellCheck
_GitHub action for ShellCheck._
## Example
```yaml
on:
push:
branches:
- master
name: 'Trigger: Push action'
jobs:
shellcheck:
name: Shellcheck
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
```
## ShellCheck options
You can pass any supported ShellCheck option or flag with the `SHELLCHECK_OPTS` env key in the job definition.
Some examples include:
* To disable specific checks (eg: `-e SC2059 -e SC2034 -e SC1090`)
* To test against different shells (eg: `-s dash` or `-s ksh`)
example:
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
env:
SHELLCHECK_OPTS: -e SC2059 -e SC2034 -e SC1090
```
## Ignore paths
You can use the `ignore` input to disable specific directories.
```text
sample structure:
sample/directory/with/files/ignoreme/test.sh
sample/directory/with/files/ignoremetoo/test.sh
sample/directory/with/files/test.sh
```
example:
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
ignore: ignoreme ignoremetoo
```
This will skip `sample/directory/with/files/ignoreme/test.sh` and `sample/directory/with/files/ignoremetoo/test.sh`
## Minimum severity of errors to consider (error, warning, info, style)
You can use the `severity` input to not fail until specified severity is met, for example fail only if there are errors in scripts but ignore styling, info and warnings.
example:
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
severity: error
```
## Run shellcheck with all paths in a single invocation
If you run into SC1090/SC1091 errors you may need to tell shellcheck to check
all files at once:
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
check_together: 'yes'
```
This can turn into a problem if you have enough script files to overwhelm the
maximum argv length on your system.
## Run shellcheck only in a single directory
If you have multiple directories with scripts, but only want to scan
one of them, you can use the following configuration:
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
scandir: './scripts'
```
## Scan for additional files
If you need to scan for unusual files, you can use the `additional_files` key.
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
additional_files: 'run finish'
```
## Disable problem matcher
If you do not want to have the problem-matcher annotate files, you can disable it
by setting `disable_matcher` to `true`.
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
disable_matcher: true
```
## Change output format
Shellcheck can print output in these formats: `checkstyle`, `diff`, `gcc`, `json`, `json1`, `quiet`, `tty`. See some examples [here](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck/wiki/Integration#pick-the-output-format-that-makes-your-life-easier).
Only `tty` and `gcc` produce file annotations via problem matcher, default is `gcc`.
- `tty` has multi-line log messages, but all annotations are reported as errors
- `gcc` has single-line log messages, so it's easier to parse with a problem matcher (including correct severity annotation)
```yaml
...
- name: Run ShellCheck
uses: ludeeus/action-shellcheck@master
with:
format: tty
```
