This repository enables using cspell as a pre-commit hook.

# .pre-commit-config.yaml
repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/streetsidesoftware/cspell-cli
    rev: v5.6.7
    hooks:
    - id: cspell

To use a custom dictionary with the pre-commit hook, create either a cspell.config.yaml or cspell.json file in your project's root directory.

cspell.config.yaml

dictionaryDefinitions:
  - name: myWords
    path: ./path/to/cSpell_dict.txt
    addWords: true
dictionaries:
  - myWords

cSpell.json

{
  "dictionaryDefinitions": [
    {
      "name": "myWords",
      "path": "./path/to/cSpell_dict.txt",
      "addWords": true
    }
  ],
  "dictionaries": ["myWords"]
}

If you installed the Code Spell Checker extension for VS Code, this can be done automatically from the command palette by running "Spell: Create a CSpell configuration file".

It also allows the cspell-cli to be installed directly from github:

npm install -g git+https://github.com/streetsidesoftware/cspell-cli

This will add the cspell-cli command to npm.
