Checking code style from commandline

If you do not use one of the above IDEs to write your code, you can always verify your code from the command-line using the following Maven command.  This command can be run from the root source directory ([dspace-source]) to check all source code, or from within an individual module (e.g. [dspace-source]/dspace-api/) to only check that module.

# If the below checkstyle:check command complains about missing SNAPSHOT dependencies, then you may need to first run:
# mvn install


# This checks the code style of all source code under the current directory
mvn -U checkstyle:check
