I uses RequireJS AMD in my project. When i run jshint on my project, it throws error like
In AMD Scripts
'define' is not defined.
In Mocha test cases
'describe' is not defined.
'it' is not defined.
How to remove this warning in jshint?

How to remove this warning in jshint?
Just to expand a bit, here's a .jshintrc
setup for Mocha:
{
....
"globals" : {
/* MOCHA */
"describe" : false,
"it" : false,
"before" : false,
"beforeEach" : false,
"after" : false,
"afterEach" : false
}
}
From the JSHint Docs - the false (the default) means the variable is read-only.
If you are defining globals only for a specific file, you can do this:
/*global describe, it, before, beforeEach, after, afterEach */
jshint: {
options: {
mocha: true,
}
}
is what you want
To avoid the not defined warning in jshint for the javascript add comments like:
/*global describe:true*/
Options
Add this in your .jshintrc
"predef" : ["define"] // Custom globals for requirejs
late to the party, but use this option in your jshintrc
:
"dojo": true
and thou shall rest peacefully without red warnings...
If you are working on node js. Add these two lines in the beginning of your file
/*jslint node: true */
"use strict";
Read the docs and search for /*global
If you're trying to run JSHint in WebStorm with Mocha, as I am, go into:
WebStorm > Preferences > Languages & Frameworks > JavaScript > Code Quality Tools > JSHint
Scroll down to "Environments" and make sure you have selected the checkbox to enable "Mocha" which will set up the definitions for JSHint for Mocha for you.
