While ShellCheck is mostly intended for interactive use, it can easily be added to builds or test suites. While ShellCheck is mostly intended for interactive use, it can easily be added to builds or test suites.
Use ShellCheck's exit code, or its [CheckStyle compatible XML output](shellcheck.1.md#user-content-formats). There's also a simple JSON output format for easy integration. ShellCheck makes canonical use of exit codes, and can output simple JSON, CheckStyle compatible XML, GCC compatible warnings as well as human readable text (with or without ANSI colors). See the [Integration](https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck/wiki/Integration) wiki page for more documentation.
