## Usage

As a general rule clippy will only work with the *latest* Rust nightly for now.

### As a Compiler Plugin

Since stable Rust is backwards compatible, you should be able to
compile your stable programs with nightly Rust with clippy plugged in to
circumvent this.

Add in your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
clippy = "*"
```

You then need to add `#![feature(plugin)]` and `#![plugin(clippy)]` to the top
of your crate entry point (`main.rs` or `lib.rs`).

Sample `main.rs`:

```rust
#![feature(plugin)]

#![plugin(clippy)]


fn main(){
    let x = Some(1u8);
    match x {
        Some(y) => println!("{:?}", y),
        _ => ()
    }
}
```

Produces this warning:

```terminal
src/main.rs:8:5: 11:6 warning: you seem to be trying to use match for destructuring a single type. Consider using `if let`, #[warn(single_match)] on by default
src/main.rs:8     match x {
src/main.rs:9         Some(y) => println!("{:?}", y),
src/main.rs:10         _ => ()
src/main.rs:11     }
src/main.rs:8:5: 11:6 help: Try
if let Some(y) = x { println!("{:?}", y) }
```

### As a cargo subcommand (`cargo clippy`)

An alternate way to use clippy is by installing clippy through cargo as a cargo
subcommand.

```terminal
cargo install clippy
```

Now you can run clippy by invoking `cargo clippy`, or
`rustup run nightly cargo clippy` directly from a directory that is usually
compiled with stable.

In case you are not using rustup, you need to set the environment flag
`SYSROOT` during installation so clippy knows where to find `librustc` and
similar crates.

```terminal
SYSROOT=/path/to/rustc/sysroot cargo install clippy
```

### Running clippy from the command line without installing

To have cargo compile your crate with clippy without needing `#![plugin(clippy)]`
in your code, you can use:

```terminal
cargo rustc -- -L /path/to/clippy_so -Z extra-plugins=clippy
```

*[Note](https://github.com/Manishearth/rust-clippy/wiki#a-word-of-warning):*
Be sure that clippy was compiled with the same version of rustc that cargo invokes here!

### Optional dependency

If you want to make clippy an optional dependency, you can do the following:

In your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
clippy = {version = "*", optional = true}

[features]
default = []
```

And, in your `main.rs` or `lib.rs`:

```rust
#![cfg_attr(feature="clippy", feature(plugin))]

#![cfg_attr(feature="clippy", plugin(clippy))]
```

Then build by enabling the feature: `cargo build --features "clippy"`

Instead of adding the `cfg_attr` attributes you can also run clippy on demand:
`cargo rustc --features clippy -- -Z no-trans -Z extra-plugins=clippy`
(the `-Z no trans`, while not neccessary, will stop the compilation process after
typechecking (and lints) have completed, which can significantly reduce the runtime).

## Configuration

Some lints can be configured in a `clippy.toml` file. It contains basic `variable = value` mapping eg.

```toml
blacklisted-names = ["toto", "tata", "titi"]
cyclomatic-complexity-threshold = 30
```

See the wiki for more information about which lints can be configured and the
meaning of the variables.

You can also specify the path to the configuration file with:

```rust
#![plugin(clippy(conf_file="path/to/clippy's/configuration"))]
```

To deactivate the “for further information visit *wiki-link*” message you can
define the `CLIPPY_DISABLE_WIKI_LINKS` environment variable.

### Allowing/denying lints

You can add options  to `allow`/`warn`/`deny`:

*   the whole set of `Warn` lints using the `clippy` lint group (`#![deny(clippy)]`)

*   all lints using both the `clippy` and `clippy_pedantic` lint groups (`#![deny(clippy)]`,
    `#![deny(clippy_pedantic)]`). Note that `clippy_pedantic` contains some very aggressive
    lints prone to false positives.

*   only some lints (`#![deny(single_match, box_vec)]`, etc)

*   `allow`/`warn`/`deny` can be limited to a single function or module using `#[allow(...)]`, etc

Note: `deny` produces errors instead of warnings.

## Link with clippy service

`clippy-service` is a rust web initiative providing `rust-clippy` as a web service.

Both projects are independent and maintained by different people
(even if some `clippy-service`'s contributions are authored by some `rust-clippy` members).

You can check out this great service at [clippy.bashy.io](https://clippy.bashy.io/).
