#### Step 1: Install rustup
You can install [rustup](http://rustup.rs/) on supported platforms. This will help
-us install clippy and its dependencies.
+us install Clippy and its dependencies.
If you already have rustup installed, update to ensure you have the latest
rustup and compiler:
rustup update
```
-#### Step 2: Install nightly toolchain
+#### Step 2: Install Clippy
-Rustup integration is still new, you will need a relatively new nightly (2018-07-15 or later).
-
-To install Rust nightly with [rustup](https://rustup.rs/):
-
-```terminal
-rustup install nightly
-```
-
-#### Step 3: Install clippy
-
-Once you have rustup and the nightly toolchain installed, run the following command:
+Once you have rustup and the latest stable release (at least Rust 1.29) installed, run the following command:
```terminal
-rustup component add clippy-preview --toolchain=nightly
+rustup component add clippy-preview
```
-Now you can run Clippy by invoking `cargo +nightly clippy`. If nightly is your
-default toolchain in rustup, `cargo clippy` will work fine.
+Now you can run Clippy by invoking `cargo clippy`.
### Running Clippy from the command line without installing it
*[Note](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-clippy/wiki#a-word-of-warning):*
Be sure that Clippy was compiled with the same version of rustc that cargo invokes here!
+### Travis CI
+
+You can add Clippy to Travis CI in the same way you use it locally:
+
+```yml
+- rust: stable
+- rust: beta
+ before_script:
+ - rustup component add clippy-preview
+ script:
+ - cargo clippy
+# if you want the build job to fail when encountering warnings, use
+ - cargo clippy -- -D warnings
+# in order to also check tests and none-default crate features, use
+ - cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
+ - cargo test
+ # etc.
+```
+
## Configuration
-Some lints can be configured in a TOML file named with `clippy.toml` or `.clippy.toml`. It contains basic `variable = value` mapping eg.

```toml
blacklisted-names = ["toto", "tata", "titi"]
### Allowing/denying lints
-You can add options to `allow`/`warn`/`deny`:
+You can add options to your code to `allow`/`warn`/`deny` Clippy lints:
* the whole set of `Warn` lints using the `clippy` lint group (`#![deny(clippy::all)]`)
Note: `deny` produces errors instead of warnings.
-## Updating rustc
-
-Sometimes, rustc moves forward without Clippy catching up. Therefore updating
-rustc may leave Clippy a non-functional state until we fix the resulting
-breakage.
+Note: To use the new `clippy::lint_name` syntax, `#![feature(tool_lints)]` has to be activated
+currently. If you want to compile your code with the stable toolchain you can use a `cfg_attr` to
+activate the `tool_lints` feature:
+```rust
+#![cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", feature(tool_lints))]
+#![cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", allow(clippy::lint_name))]
+```
-You can use the [rust-update](rust-update) script to update rustc only if
-Clippy would also update correctly.
+For this to work you have to use Clippy on the nightly toolchain: `cargo +nightly clippy`. If you
+want to use Clippy with the stable toolchain, you can stick to the old unscoped method to
+enable/disable Clippy lints until `tool_lints` are stable:
+```rust
+#![cfg_attr(feature = "cargo-clippy", allow(clippy_lint))]
+```
