Border Zero

Rule border-zero will enforce whether one should use 0 or none when specifying a zero border value

Options

• convention: '0'/'none' (defaults to 0)

If an invalid convention is provided the rule will default back to convention: '0'. An extra warning/error will also be thrown on line 1 column 1 of a file with a lint issue to inform you of this fact.

Examples

When convention: '0', the following are allowed. When convention: 'none', the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  border: 0;
}

.bar {
  border-right: 0;
}

When convention: 'none', the following are allowed. When convention: '0', the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  border: none;
}

.bar {
  border-left: none;
}

Invalid conventions

When the invalid convention convention: 'zero' is supplied, the following are allowed as the rule defaults to convention: '0'.

.foo {
  border: none;
}

.bar {
  border-left: 0;
}

Force Element Nesting

Examples

When enabled, the following are disallowed:

When enabled, the following are allowed:

div {

No Important

Rule no-important will enforce that important declarations are not allowed to be used.

Examples

When enabled, the following are disallowed:

.foo {
  content: 'bar' !important;
}

Indentation

Rule indentation will enforce an indentation size (tabs and spaces) and it will also ensure that tabs and spaces are not mixed.

The mixed spaces and tabs warnings check will take into account what you have set in your config file whether it should expect to see spaces or tabs. If it encounters a tab anywhere in a file when your rule config doesn't specify tabs it will flag a lint warning, Similarly for any whitespace using spaces when tabs are specified. Obviously spaces between properties and values etc are ignored.

Options

• size: number or 'tab' (defaults to 2 spaces)

Examples

When enabled (assuming size: 2) the following are allowed:

.foo {
  content: 'bar';

  .baz {
    content: 'qux';

    // Waldo
    &--waldo {
      content: 'alpha';
    }
  }
}

When enabled (assuming size: 2) the following are disallowed:

.foo {
content: 'bar';

  content: 'qux';
  // Waldo
      &--waldo {
        content: 'alpha';
