Internal tooling
The devtools directory contains small helpers used during development
and in continuous integration. One of them is rsyslog_stylecheck.py which verifies adherence to the coding style.
Usage:
python3 devtools/rsyslog_stylecheck.py [options] [files...]
When no file is specified the script recursively scans the current
working directory. The --max-errors option controls how many errors
are displayed. Use a number to limit the output or all to disable
the limit. The default is 100.
The checker reports trailing whitespace, invalid indentation and lines that exceed the allowed length. It exits with a non-zero status when violations are found.
