# will produce lints
lint(
  text = "a <- 1;",
  linters = semicolon_linter()
)

lint(
  text = "a <- 1; b <- 1",
  linters = semicolon_linter()
)

lint(
  text = "function() { a <- 1; b <- 1 }",
  linters = semicolon_linter()
)

# okay
lint(
  text = "a <- 1",
  linters = semicolon_linter()
)

lint(
  text = "a <- 1;",
  linters = semicolon_linter(allow_trailing = TRUE)

code_lines <- "a <- 1\nb <- 1"
writeLines(code_lines)
lint(
  text = code_lines,
  linters = semicolon_linter()
)
