lintr is an R package providing static code analysis for R, checking style adherence, syntax errors, and possible semantic issues. It is highly configurable and integrates with editors and CI pipelines.
Use cases
- lint R code for style violations
- enforce a style guide across an R project
- catch syntax errors and suspicious code in R scripts
- add automated code checks to CI for R packages
- customize linter rules for a team's coding standards
When to choose
- you write R code and want automated style and correctness checks
- you maintain an R package and want linting in CI
- you need configurable, extensible lint rules for R
When to avoid
- you need linting for languages other than R
- you want an auto-formatter rather than a linter (consider styler instead)
