Use

Typically, steal.clean is used from the command line steal/cleanjs script. It takes a path to an html or js file on the filesystem and a list of options. It then updates the file or files in place.

Using on a single file

./js steal/cleanjs myapp/myapp.js

Using on many files

./js steal/cleanjs myapp/myapp.html

Turning on JSLint and other options

Turn on JSLint like:

./js steal/cleanjs myapp/myapp.js -jslint true

You can pass other options in a similar way.

The clean script

When you generate a JavaScriptMVC application, it comes with a steal script. You can modify the options in this file.

Ignoring Files

To ignore a file from your application, mark it as clean with a comment like:

//@steal-clean
