lesson-7 Solhint not taking commands from scripts

[TimeKeyRoll]

Hi I have written scripts in package.json.

when i run npm run lint or npm run lint:fix it does not work at all. show nothing.

could anyone please look into this?

Using the test script for diagnosing

In package.json, remove the npx in the test script, then run:

npm run test

Does it work? If so, you can do the same for others to fix it.

Maybe synergize the compiler versions in the above with the ones in hardhat.config, i.e. keep a version common to both.

Besides that, I have no idea why this would occur. Maybe try a dependency reinstallation with a different version of solhint (either the one I posted above or from the course's repo works).

[TimeKeyRoll]

Now hardhat.config version is equal to solhint.json and error wont go away.

let me try a different version of solhint. how do we download some particular version? and where did you excatly mentioned the version and how to make it work?

[krakxn]

"hardhat.config version is equal to solhint.json" It is better for the Hardhat config to remain the same. Instead, just change the version (to account for Hardhat config's) in the solhint.json file.

"and where did you excatly mentioned the version and how to make it work?" Either the one I posted above, or from the course's (specific lesson) package.json works.

Copy that version of solhint, then in your package.json replace the old version with this one.

Now, we need to reinstall dependencies as so (to install the above while also eliminating the possibility of any conflict bw them):

• yarn hardhat clean -- deletes cache and artifacts
• Manually, delete the node_modules folder -- deletes all the dependencies
• yarn install -- this installs all the dependencies in the package.json again
• yarn hardhat compile -- lastly, to compile everything and generate the cache and artifacts again

The one you've posted above is same as mine. And Patrick has not downloaded solhint but mentioned in the scripts sections Of Github. Here is the screenshot of Patrick github...

Do you know @krakxn how did not Patrick downloaded but mentioned in the 'Scripts' about 'solhint' ... ?

@othaime-en could you please help me with this?

[othaime-en]

Checkout the answer by @krakxn above, seems like a good fix.
And please sure you allow access rights so people can contribute to your code.

[TimeKeyRoll]

So a couple of people tried helping but no one could fix. Lol
@othaime-en you the only option left now.
If not bugging you please see why 'lint' won't work in scripts and 'lint:fix' does not work in scripts or npm.

Hi!

Since the package.json you provided has installed as dependencies prettier, hardhat, and solhint, there's no need to use npx (which is a method to directly run a package without installation).

Try removing the npx prefix.

I also advice running the commands on the command line first, to see if they work as expected before adding them into the scripts section of the package.json.

Good luck!

[TimeKeyRoll]

Well i did the same thing as shown in the screenshot but nothing happened but whenever i run it directly it works.

[mattaereal]

can you please run
npm run coverage

I want to see if npm fails to show solhint's output only, if it this happens with everything.

[TimeKeyRoll]

npm run coverage is working

[mattaereal]

Well, there you go. There's nothing wrong with your package.json configuration, nor your npm scripts shortcuts inside of it. It seems to be something in particular on how the output of the linter works when called that way.

My guess is that it has to do with some general configuration between npm run and solhint's output. Since I'm not a windows user, I can't even reproduce what's going on.

Thant's okay! I have checked each and every thing ..everything is going good other than Lint. I guess it will get fixed. but Thank you for the contribution.
