Hi,

 

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

 

https://saslint.com

 

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!

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


The repo is here:  https://github.com/sasjs/lint

 

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

 

And also the VS Code Extension:  https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SASjs.sasjs-for-vscode

We're looking to implement it on SASjs/server next:  https://github.com/sasjs/server

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.
