devel/revive 1.2.4nb41 NetBSD

Fast, configurable, extensible, flexible, and beautiful linter for Go. Drop-in replacement of golint. Revive provides a framework for development of custom rules, and lets you define a strict preset for enhancing your development & code review processes.

Here's how revive is different from golint:

• Allows to enable or disable rules using a configuration file.
• Allows to configure the linting rules with a TOML file.
• 2x faster running the same rules as golint.
• Provides functionality for disabling a specific rule or the entire linter for a file or a range of lines. golint allows this only for generated files.
• Optional type checking. Most rules in golint do not require type checking. If you disable them in the config file, revive will run over 6x faster than golint.
• Provides multiple formatters which let us customize the output.
• Allows to customize the return code for the entire linter or based on the failure of only some rules.
• Everyone can extend it easily with custom rules or formatters.
• Revive provides more rules compared to golint.
