SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

ERPNext/Frappe code often contains subtle mistakes that only surface during deployment. This Skill detects and reports best-practice violations and common pitfalls before they cause production issues, reducing debugging time and outages.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Code quality checks across ERPNext/Frappe constructs (server scripts, client scripts, controllers, hooks, templates).
  • Automated validation reports with actionable guidance and version-compatibility notes for v14–v16.
  • Pre-deployment safeguards by surfacing critical issues early in CI/CD or code review workflows.

Quick Start

Run the validator on ERPNext/Frappe code to generate a comprehensive validation report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate ERPNext code for best practices before deployment?

To validate ERPNext code before deployment, run a static analysis check on your server scripts, client scripts, controllers, and hooks to detect best-practice violations and common pitfalls, generating a structured validation report.

What common Frappe code pitfalls should I check for during a code review?

Common Frappe code pitfalls include version-compatibility issues across ERPNext v14–v16 and subtle script errors; automated validation detects these by analyzing server scripts, controllers, and hooks to surface critical issues early in code reviews.

Does Frappe static analysis work with ERPNext version 14, 15, and 16?

Yes, Frappe static analysis works with ERPNext versions 14 through 16, enforcing rigorous checks and providing version-compatibility notes to ensure your server scripts, client scripts, and hooks function correctly across all three versions.

Can I use automated code validation for Frappe hooks and client scripts?

Yes, you can use automated code validation for Frappe hooks and client scripts; the validator analyzes these constructs alongside server scripts and controllers to enforce best practices and generate actionable guidance.

What is the best way to catch ERPNext server script errors before they cause production outages?

The best way to catch ERPNext server script errors before production outages is to apply automated validation during pre-deployment checks, which analyzes scripts against best practices and reports critical issues early.

Why does ERPNext code often fail during deployment even after passing local tests?

ERPNext code often fails during deployment due to subtle mistakes that local tests miss; static analysis validates code against best practices and common pitfalls to detect these issues before they cause production problems.
