Error code undefined about gulp-scss-lint

[juanfran]

What happens if you run this on the path where you have the gulpfile?

scss-lint TechSmithSass/*.scss --format XML

[jamierytlewski]

Shows me the proper XML.

I can not reproduce the error. Could you add console.log(error); after line 53?

exec(command, function (error, report) {
    console.log(error);
...

[jamierytlewski]

I apologize for the delay. [Error: stdout maxBuffer exceeded.]

I too have the same error which appears after I upgraded my scss-lint gem from 0.25.1 to 0.27.0. My config is essentially identical with the 'bundleExec': true parameter set. gulp-scss-lint is version 0.1

Reverting the gem to 25.1 fixes the error.

bundle exec scss-lint sass/*.scss --format XML
returns

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><lint></lint>

ahmednuaman/grunt-scss-lint#63 - think this needs to be changed, that's what grunt-scss-lint had to do.

Thanks, I added the maxBuffer option

[davidnknight]

Setting maxBuffer to false made no difference for me, however, setting it to 524288 worked, which I came across in sun-zheng-an/gulp-shell#13.

Two questions. Firstly, why isn't false working? Secondly, why is there no config example for the maxBuffer option in the readme, yet there is for every other option? Whilst an obvious assumption is to just add maxBuffer to the scsslint config, i.e. scsslint({maxBuffer: false}), it did make me question whether I had put it in the right place when false wasn't working.

For the sake of consistency in the documentation, and also to remove any possible need to make assumptions and cause needless confusion, I'd add it. Also probably an idea to explain what the maxBuffer integer actually is and a suggested range rather than just saying "number", which explains nothing and could result in a user questioning "number of what?" "0 or 1?" "Is this talking about memory allowed to execute? What's the default value which clearly isn't enough? Is it measured in bytes or mb?" and so on. A little elaboration on this could help others to avoid having to hunt for answers, like I did.

Sorry for my mistakes in the documentation

Thanks for your suggestions, I have made some changes.

I removed the false option because doesn't work how I expected. (and I had a bug)
I removed the default node value in the maxBuffer option and set it to 307200.
I updated the documentation, now with the other two changes I think It's clear enough.

Thanks
