## Usage

Add Dogma to your Mix dependencies

```elixir

def deps do
  [
    {:dogma, "~> 0.0", only: :dev},
  ]
end
```

Fetch it:

```
mix deps.get
```

Run the mix task:

```

```

You'll get something like this:

```
Inspecting 27 files.

.....X..........X..........

27 files, 2 errors!

== lib/dogma/rules.ex ==
