What is Luacheck

If you're using Roblox outside of Roblox Studio, Luacheck is a linter that will analyze your code for you.

Examples

Here are some examples of the .luacheck in action. Traditional .luacheckrc files will not catch these errors.

Features

• Automatically applies script and workspace properties
• Automatically applies the Enum namespace
• Has definitions for Roblox types and variables
• Specifically ignores adding Workspace and other global variables following Roblox's standards
• Does not show deprecated properties

Run and updating

To run you need Lua (5.1 or higher). Running the script will pull the latest version of the Roblox API and then pull in the latest Enums and game/workspace properties.

Usage

You can copy the contents of .luacheckrc into your .luacheckrc
