-- Run it over the engine with:  luacheck src   (or scripts/lint.sh)

-- The point is a high-signal baseline: the categories left on are the ones
-- that catch real defects -- undefined globals/locals (the class that hid a
-- `music.volume` crash: applyVolume read a `state` that was still the nil
-- global), unused values, unreachable code, redefinitions. The cosmetic
-- categories the codebase deliberately lives with (a `self`/`dt` an
-- interface requires but a given method ignores, documented empty
-- fall-through branches, the odd long line) are muted so they don't drown
-- the signal.

std = "luajit"

-- LÖVE exposes `love` as a mutable table: games assign their callbacks onto
-- it (love.wheelmoved, love.run, ...), so it is a regular global, not
-- read-only -- otherwise every callback registration reads as a violation.
globals = { "love" }

  "jit",
  -- LuaJIT 2.1 ships table.unpack even though the bare 5.1 `table` std lacks
  -- it; without this, every `table.unpack` reads as an undefined field.
  table = { fields = { "unpack" } },
}

-- Vendored/native trees and the test suites have their own conventions.
