I'd like to use swiftlint to lint a single file. How do I accomplish this? Checking the docs on https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint was not helpful.

You can also do this with:

swiftlint --path 'path to your file'

Yup, this is better than my way. – ablarg Sep 05 '17 at 20:47
Please notice, `--path` flag is deprecated: https://github.com/realm/SwiftLint/pull/3952 – yo1995 Mar 07 '23 at 00:38

Docs don't talk about required 'lint' argument in a helpful fashion. – ablarg Aug 12 '16 at 17:24
