SAS Linter/Code checker

Hi,

I was looking for a Linter/code checker for SAS. I could only find this one:

Is it any good? The website is blocked at my office, so I would like to know if anyone else has tried it and if it's useful.

If not, are there any suggestions?

Thanks!

There isn't much under the link you've posted and it also looks like the tool isn't ready (yet?).

It appears the same author also wrote a SAS Global Forum paper which you can find here.

Hi @gabonzo - my team have built an open source linter for SAS and we actively maintain it.

The tooling itself is implemented in the SASjs CLI: https://cli.sasjs.io/lint
