Overview

Usage

1. Install dependencies

• pre-commit
• circleci-cli

2. Create config file .pre-commit-config.yaml with content:

$ cat .pre-commit-config.yaml
- repo: https://github.com/zahorniak/pre-commit-circleci.git
  rev: v0.6 # Ensure this is the latest tag, comparing to the Releases tab
  hooks:
    - id: circleci_validate

If you wish to pass additional args to circleci_validate, you can specify them in the config. See circleci config validate --help for accepted args. You must use the form --arg=value, not --arg value.

For example, to set an org-slug:

$ cat .pre-commit-config.yaml
- repo: https://github.com/zahorniak/pre-commit-circleci.git
  rev: v0.6 # Ensure this is the latest tag, comparing to the Releases tab
  hooks:
    - id: circleci_validate
      args:
        - --org-slug=my/organization

Or specify a custom config file:

$ cat .pre-commit-config.yaml
- repo: https://github.com/zahorniak/pre-commit-circleci.git
  rev: v0.6 # Ensure this is the latest tag, comparing to the Releases tab
  hooks:
    - id: circleci_validate
      args:
        - .circleci/continue_config.yml

3. Install hook
