Overview

  • Added Maven Checkstyle version 3.6.0- this is the latest version on Maven, but this version is out of date with the latest checkstyle releases. 3.6.0 specifically refers to Checkstyle release 9.3.
  • Added google_checks.xml --> this had to be modified to accomodate for the version of Checkstyle that's on Maven, which included removing some functionality like SupressNearbyTextFilter.
  • Added corresponding Github action.
  • References Set Up Linters and Code Style Checkers #16

Considerations:

  • The version of Checkstyle this is using was released in 2022.
  • google_checks.xml had to be modified from the official release on Checkstyle's github repo.
  • The current code fails a lot of checkstyle standards:
