ng lint

Runs linting tools on Angular app code in a given project folder.

ng lint <project> [options]

ng l <project> [options]

Description

Takes the name of the project, as specified in the projects section of the angular.json workspace configuration file. When a project name is not supplied, it will execute for all projects.

The default linting tool is TSLint, and the default configuration is specified in the project's tslint.json file.

Note: TSLint has been discontinued and support has been deprecated in the Angular CLI. The options shown below are for the deprecated TSLint builder. To opt-in using the community driven ESLint builder, see angular-eslint README.
