Jenkins: jslint fails for some extensions and therefore translatewiki script breaks.
AbuseFilter jslint job failed : https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/job/mwext-AbuseFilter-jslint/80/ Although the previous patchset ( https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/58755/ ) has been merged by the gate-and-submit pipeline (ie test used to work).
Moving from Git/Gerrit to Continuous Integration.
The immediate problem has been fixed by adding the files to the extensions that had jshint enabled but were missing a jshintrc file. For the future I'll add a check in the jenkins job asserting that a jshint configuration file exists before proceeding, that way the error will be "Missing .jshintrc file" instead of some arbitrary style violation that comes from the internal jshint defaults.
That would apply to any repositories. Updating summary.
I think the jobs started failing when we added a .jshintrc file in integration/docroot.git and/or had the Jenkins workspace has children of /srv/ . That is bug 52456.
Projects that have jshint enabled must have a jshintrc file that contains actual rules (not something silly like {}). If you don't have jshintrc, please don't enable jshint in Jenkins.
