## Features
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Spell Checks Code -- Able to spell check code by parsing it into words before checking against the dictionaries.
|
|||
|
- Supports CamelCase, snake_case, and compoundwords naming styles.
|
|||
|
- Self contained -- does not depend upon OS libraries like Hunspell or aspell. Nor does it depend upon online services.
|
|||
|
- Fast -- checks 1000's of lines of code in seconds.
|
|||
|
- Programming Language Specific Dictionaries -- Has dedicated support for:
|
|||
|
- JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, PHP, C#, C++, LaTex, Go, HTML, CSS, etc.
|
|||
|
- Customizable -- supports custom dictionaries and word lists.
|
|||
|
- Continuous Integration Support -- Can easily be added as a linter to Travis-CI.
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Command: `check` - Quick Visual Check
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Do a quick visual check of a file. This is a great way to see which text is included in the check.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
cspell check <filename>
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It will produce something like this:
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Tip for use with `less`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To get color in less, use `--color` and `less -r`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
cspell check <filename> --color | less -r
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Command: `trace` - See which dictionaries contain a word
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Trace shows a the list of known dictionaries and a `*` next to the ones that contain the word.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
A `!` will appear next to the ones where the word is forbidden.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Can run as a GitHub Action, on other CI tools and locally
|
|||
|
- Provides an updated `.cspell.json` file with new unknown words
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Setup**

### Git commit-hooks
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### pre-commit
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Setup**
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
npm install -SD cspell
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**`.git/hooks/pre-commit`**
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
exec git diff --cached --name-only | npx cspell --no-summary --no-progress --no-must-find-files --file-list stdin
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Requirements
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
cspell needs Node 12 and above.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## How it works
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The concept is simple, split camelCase and snake_case words before checking them against a list of known words.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `camelCase` -> `camel case`
|
|||
|
- `HTMLInput` -> `html input`
|
|||
|
- `srcCode` -> `src code`
|
|||
|
- `snake_case_words` -> `snake case words`
|
|||
|
- `camel2snake` -> `camel snake` -- (the 2 is ignored)
|
|||
|
- `function parseJson(text: string)` -> `function parse json text string`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Special cases
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Escape characters like `\n`, `\t` are removed if the word does not match:
|
|||
|
- `\narrow` -> `narrow` - because `narrow` is a word
|
|||
|
- `\ncode` -> `code` - because `ncode` is not a word.
|
|||
|
- `\network` -> `network` - but it might be hiding a spelling error, if `\n` was an escape character.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Things to note
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- This spellchecker is case insensitive. It will not catch errors like `english` which should be `English`.
|
|||
|
- The spellchecker uses dictionaries stored locally. It does not send anything outside your machine.
|
|||
|
- The words in the dictionaries can and do contain errors.
|
|||
|
- There are missing words.
|
|||
|
- Only words longer than 3 characters are checked. "jsj" is ok, while "jsja" is not.
|
|||
|
- All symbols and punctuation are ignored.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## In Document Settings
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It is possible to add spell check settings into your source code.
|
|||
|
This is to help with file specific issues that may not be applicable to the entire project.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
All settings are prefixed with `cSpell:` or `spell-checker:`.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `disable` -- turn off the spell checker for a section of code.
|
|||
|
- `enable` -- turn the spell checker back on after it has been turned off.
|
|||
|
- `ignore` -- specify a list of words to be ignored.
|
|||
|
- `words` -- specify a list of words to be considered correct and will appear in the suggestions list.
|
|||
|
- `ignoreRegExp` -- Any text matching the regular expression will NOT be checked for spelling.
|
|||
|
- `includeRegExp` -- Only text matching the collection of includeRegExp will be checked.
|
|||
|
- `enableCompoundWords` / `disableCompoundWords` -- Allow / disallow words like: "stringlength".
|
|||
|
- `dictionaries` -- specify a list of the names of the dictionaries to use.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Enable / Disable checking sections of code
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It is possible to disable / enable the spell checker by adding comments to your code.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Disable Checking
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `/* cSpell:disable */`
|
|||
|
- `/* spell-checker: disable */`
|
|||
|
- `/* spellchecker: disable */`
|
|||
|
- `// cspell:disable-line` -- disables checking for the current line.
|
|||
|
- `/* cspell:disable-next-line */` -- disables checking till the end of the next line.
|
|||
|
<!--- cSpell:enable -->
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Enable Checking
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `/* cSpell:enable */`
|
|||
|
- `/* spell-checker: enable */`
|
|||
|
- `/* spellchecker: enable */`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Example
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell:disable
|
|||
|
const wackyWord = ['zaallano', 'wooorrdd', 'zzooommmmmmmm'];
|
|||
|
/* cSpell:enable */
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
const words = ['zaallano', 'wooorrdd', 'zzooommmmmmmm']; // cspell:disable-line disables this entire line
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// To disable the next line, use cspell:disable-next-line
|
|||
|
const moreWords = ['ieeees', 'beees', 'treeees'];
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// Nesting disable / enable is not Supported
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// spell-checker:disable
|
|||
|
// It is now disabled.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
var liep = 1;
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/* cspell:disable */
|
|||
|
// It is still disabled
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// cSpell:enable
|
|||
|
// It is now enabled
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
const str = 'goededag'; // <- will be flagged as an error.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// spell-checker:enable <- doesn't do anything
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// cSPELL:DISABLE <-- also works.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
// if there isn't an enable, spelling is disabled till the end of the file.
|
|||
|
const str = 'goedemorgen'; // <- will NOT be flagged as an error.
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<!--- cSpell:enable -->
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Ignore
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
_Ignore_ allows you the specify a list of words you want to ignore within the document.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignore zaallano, wooorrdd
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignore zzooommmmmmmm
|
|||
|
const wackyWord = ['zaallano', 'wooorrdd', 'zzooommmmmmmm'];
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Note:** words defined with `ignore` will be ignored for the entire file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Words
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The _words_ list allows you to add words that will be considered correct and will be used as suggestions.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell:words woorxs sweeetbeat
|
|||
|
const companyName = 'woorxs sweeetbeat';
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Note:** words defined with `words` will be used for the entire file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Enable / Disable compound words
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In some programing language it is common to glue words together.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```c
|
|||
|
// cSpell:enableCompoundWords
|
|||
|
char * errormessage; // Is ok with cSpell:enableCompoundWords
|
|||
|
int errornumber; // Is also ok.
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Note:** Compound word checking cannot be turned on / off in the same file.
|
|||
|
The last setting in the file determines the value for the entire file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Excluding and Including Text to be checked.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
By default, the entire document is checked for spelling.
|
|||
|
`cSpell:disable`/`cSpell:enable` above allows you to block off sections of the document.
|
|||
|
`ignoreRegExp` and `includeRegExp` give you the ability to ignore or include patterns of text.
|
|||
|
By default the flags `gim` are added if no flags are given.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The spell checker works in the following way:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Find all text matching `includeRegExp`
|
|||
|
2. Remove any text matching `ignoreRegExp`
|
|||
|
3. Check the remaining text.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Exclude Example
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp 0x[0-9a-f]+ -- will ignore c style hex numbers
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp /0x[0-9A-F]+/g -- will ignore upper case c style hex numbers.
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp g{5} h{5} -- will only match ggggg, but not hhhhh or 'ggggg hhhhh'
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp g{5}|h{5} -- will match both ggggg and hhhhh
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp /g{5} h{5}/ -- will match 'ggggg hhhhh'
|
|||
|
/* cSpell:ignoreRegExp /n{5}/ -- will NOT work as expected because of the ending comment -> */
|
|||
|
/*
|
|||
|
cSpell:ignoreRegExp /q{5}/ -- will match qqqqq just fine but NOT QQQQQ
|
|||
|
*/
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp /[^\s]{40,}/ -- will ignore long strings with no spaces.
|
|||
|
// cSpell:ignoreRegExp Email -- this will ignore email like patterns -- see Predefined RegExp expressions
|
|||
|
var encodedImage = 'HR+cPzr7XGAOJNurPL0G8I2kU0UhKcqFssoKvFTR7z0T3VJfK37vS025uKroHfJ9nA6WWbHZ/ASn...';
|
|||
|
var email1 = 'emailaddress@myfancynewcompany.com';
|
|||
|
var email2 = '<emailaddress@myfancynewcompany.com>';
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Note:** ignoreRegExp and includeRegExp are applied to the entire file. They do not start and stop.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Include Example
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In general you should not need to use `includeRegExp`. But if you are mixing languages then it could come in helpful.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```Python
|
|||
|
# cSpell:includeRegExp #.*
|
|||
|
# cSpell:includeRegExp ("""|''')[^\1]*\1
|
|||
|
# only comments and block strings will be checked for spelling.
|
|||
|
def sum_it(self, seq):
|
|||
|
"""This is checked for spelling"""
|
|||
|
variabele = 0
|
|||
|
alinea = 'this is not checked'
|
|||
|
for num in seq:
|
|||
|
# The local state of 'value' will be retained between iterations
|

|
variabele += num
|
|||
|
yield variabele
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Dictionaries
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The _dictionaries_ list allows you to specify dictionaries to use for the file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell:dictionaries lorem-ipsum
|
|||
|
const companyName = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet';
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Note:** dictionaries specified with `dictionaries` will be used for the entire file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Predefined RegExp expressions
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Exclude patterns
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `Urls`<sup>1</sup> -- Matches urls
|
|||
|
- `HexValues` -- Matches common hex format like #aaa, 0xfeef, \\u0134
|
|||
|
- `Base64`<sup>1</sup> -- matches base64 blocks of text longer than 40 characters.
|
|||
|
- `Email` -- matches most email addresses.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Include Patterns
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `Everything`<sup>1</sup> -- By default we match an entire document and remove the excludes.
|
|||
|
- `string` -- This matches common string formats like '...', "...", and \`...\`
|
|||
|
- `CStyleComment` -- These are C Style comments /\* \*/ and //
|
|||
|
- `PhpHereDoc` -- This matches PHPHereDoc strings.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<sup>1.</sup> These patterns are part of the default include/exclude list for every file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Customization
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
_cspell_'s behavior can be controlled through a config file. By default it looks for any of the following files:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `.cspell.json`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.json`
|
|||
|
- `.cSpell.json`
|
|||
|
- `cSpell.json`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.config.js`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.config.cjs`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.config.json`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.config.yaml`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.config.yml`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.yaml`
|
|||
|
- `cspell.yml`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Or you can specify a path to a config file with the `--config <path>` argument on the command line.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### `cspell.json`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Example `cspell.json` file
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// cSpell Settings
|
|||
|
{
|
|||
|
// Version of the setting file. Always 0.2
|
|||
|
"version": "0.2",
|
|||
|
// language - current active spelling language
|
|||
|
"language": "en",
|
|||
|
// words - list of words to be always considered correct
|
|||
|
"words": [
|
|||
|
"mkdirp",
|
|||
|
"tsmerge",
|
|||
|
"githubusercontent",
|
|||
|
"streetsidesoftware",
|
|||
|
"vsmarketplacebadge",
|
|||
|
"visualstudio"
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
// flagWords - list of words to be always considered incorrect
|
|||
|
// This is useful for offensive words and common spelling errors.
|
|||
|
// For example "hte" should be "the"
|
|||
|
"flagWords": [
|
|||
|
"hte"
|
|||
|
]
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### cspell.json sections
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `version` - currently always 0.2 - controls how the settings in the configuration file behave.
|
|||
|
- `language` - this specifies the language locale to use in choosing the general dictionary.
|
|||
|
For example: `"language": "en-GB"` tells cspell to use British English instead of US English.
|
|||
|
- `words` - a list of words to be considered correct.
|
|||
|
- `flagWords` - a list of words to be always considered incorrect
|
|||
|
- `ignoreWords` - a list of words to be ignored (even if they are in the flagWords).
|
|||
|
- `ignorePaths` - a list of globs to specify which files are to be ignored.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Example**
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```json
|
|||
|
"ignorePaths": ["node_modules/**"]
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
will cause cspell to ignore anything in the `node_modules` directory.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `maxNumberOfProblems` - defaults to **_100_** per file.
|
|||
|
- `minWordLength` - defaults to **_4_** - the minimum length of a word before it is checked.
|
|||
|
- `allowCompoundWords` - defaults to **_false_**; set to **true** to allow compound words by default.
|
|||
|
- `dictionaries` - list of the names of the dictionaries to use. See [Dictionaries](#Dictionaries) below.
|
|||
|
- `dictionaryDefinitions` - this list defines any custom dictionaries to use. This is how you can include other languages like Spanish.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Example**
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
"language": "en",
|
|||
|
// Dictionaries "spanish", "ruby", and "corp-term" will always be checked.
|
|||
|
// Including "spanish" in the list of dictionaries means both Spanish and English
|
|||
|
// words will be considered correct.
|
|||
|
"dictionaries": ["spanish", "ruby", "corp-terms", "fonts"],
|
|||
|
// Define each dictionary. Relative paths are relative to the config file.
|
|||
|
"dictionaryDefinitions": [
|
|||
|
{ "name": "spanish", "path": "./spanish-words.txt"},
|
|||
|
{ "name": "ruby", "path": "./ruby.txt"},
|
|||
|
{ "name": "company-terms", "path": "./corp-terms.txt"}
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `ignoreRegExpList` - list of patterns to be ignored
|
|||
|
- `includeRegExpList` - _(Advanced)_ limits the text checked to be only that matching the expressions in the list.
|
|||
|
- `patterns` - this allows you to define named patterns to be used with
|
|||
|
`ignoreRegExpList` and `includeRegExpList`.
|
|||
|
- `languageSettings` - this allow for per programming language configuration settings. See [LanguageSettings](#LanguageSettings)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Dictionaries

|
|||
|
- **filetypes** - list of file typescript
|
|||

### Dictionary Definition
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- **name** - The reference name of the dictionary, used with program language settings
|
|||
|
- **description** - Optional description
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
current `cspell.json` file.
|
|||
|
- **repMap** - Optional replacement map use to replace character prior to searching the dictionary.
|
|||
|
Example:
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// Replace various tick marks with a single '
|
|||
|
"repMap": [["'|`|’", "'"]]
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
// Use Compounds
|
|||
|
- **useCompounds** - allow compound words
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
// Define each dictionary. Relative paths are relative to the config file.
|
|||
|
"dictionaryDefinitions": [
|
|||
|
{ "name": "spanish", "path": "./spanish-words.txt"},
|
|||
|
{ "name": "ruby", "path": "./ruby.txt"},
|
|||
|
{ "name": "company-terms", "path": "./corp-terms.txt"}
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Disabling a Dictionary
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
It is possible to prevent a dictionary from being loaded. This is useful if you want to use your own dictionary or just
|
|||
|
turn off an existing dictionary.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#### Disable Default cpp Dictionary
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
"dictionaries": ["!cpp"],
|
|||
|
"overrides": [
|
|||
|
{
|
|||
|
"filename": "legacy/**/*.cpp",
|
|||
|
"dictionaries": ["!!cpp"], // add it back for *.cpp files under the legacy folder
|
|||
|
},
|
|||
|
]
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The number of `!`s is important.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `!cpp` remove `cpp` dictionary
|
|||
|
- `!!cpp` add it back
|
|||
|
- `!!!cpp` remove it again.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## LanguageSettings
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The Language Settings allow configuration to be based upon the programming language and/or the e.
|
|||
|
There are two selector fields `locale` and `languageId`.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- `languageId` defines which programming languages to match against.
|
|||
|
A value of `"python,javascript"` will match against _python_ and _javascript_ files. To match against ALL programming languages,
|
|||
|
use `"*"`.
|
|||
|
- `locale` defines which spoken languages to match against. A value of `"en-GB,nl"` will match against British English or Dutch.
|
|||
|
A value of `"*"` will match all spoken languages.
|
|||
|
- Most configuration values allowed in a `cspell.json` file can be define or redefine within the `languageSettings`.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
"languageSettings": [
|
|||
|
{
|
|||
|
// VSCode languageId. i.e. typescript, java, go, cpp, javascript, markdown, latex
|
|||
|
// * will match against any file type.
|
|||
|
"languageId": "c,cpp",
|
|||
|
// Language locale. i.e. en-US, de-AT, or ru. * will match all locales.
|
|||
|
// Multiple locales can be specified like: "en, en-US" to match both English and English US.
|
|||
|
"locale": "*",
|
|||
|
// To exclude patterns, add them to "ignoreRegExpList"
|
|||
|
"ignoreRegExpList": [
|
|||
|
"/#include.*/"
|
|||
|
],
|
|||
|
// List of dictionaries to enable by name in `dictionaryDefinitions`
|
|||
|
"dictionaries": ["cpp"],
|
|||
|
// Dictionary definitions can also be supplied here. They are only used iff "languageId" and "locale" match.
|
|||
|
"dictionaryDefinitions": []
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
]
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Overrides
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Overrides are useful for forcing configuration on a per file basis.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
"overrides": [
|
|||
|
// Force `*.hrr` and `*.crr` files to be treated as `cpp` files:
|
|||
|
{
|
|||
|
"filename": "**/{*.hrr,*.crr}",
|
|||
|
"languageId": "cpp"
|
|||
|
},
|
|||
|
// Force `*.txt` to use the Dutch dictionary (Dutch dictionary needs to be installed separately):
|
|||
|
{
|
|||
|
"language": "nl",
|
|||
|
"filename": "**/dutch/**/*.txt"
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
]
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

These are at the bottom because the VSCode Marketplace leaves a bit space at the top
