IT:AD:Code:HowTo:Configure Problem Matchers

(UP)

Summary

Problem Matchers are nothing more than sophisticated Regex expressions to extract meaning out of the warning and error messages of various tools.

You can assign more than one Problem Matcher to a ./tasks.config task – which is useful in such scenarios when you are creating a Task to run IT:AD:Gulp, IT:AD:Grunt or other downstream task runner.

./tasks.config

{
    // See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
    // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
    "version": "0.1.0",
    "command": "gulp",
    "isShellCommand": true,
    "args": [
        "--no-color"
    ],
    "tasks": [
        {
            "taskName": "build",
            "args": [],
            "isBuildCommand": true,
            "problemMatcher": [
                "$lessCompile",
                "$tsc",
                "$jshint"
            ]
        }
    ]
}
