JSHint behave differently in Webstorm and Grunt

Issue

I have created a new service with Grunt using the angular-generator and then reformatted the code with WebStorm Ctrl+ALT+L as the tabs / spaces seem to be different.

Then when using Grunt and the task JShint complains I get the following errors:

app/scripts/services/poteservice.js
  line 11  col 13  Expected '}' to have an indentation at 15 instead at 13.
  line 14  col 13  Expected '}' to have an indentation at 15 instead at 13.

Another strange issue is that I found that I can enabled JSHint inside WebStorm but then I get issues like

 JSHINT: angular not defined
 
    and

 Use the function form of use strict

How can I make everything play together nicely i.e. WebStorm and Grunt etc.?

I have the WebStorm plugin for Angular installed.

Solution

First, you should configure WebStorm to use the same JSHint file as Grunt.

Go to Project Settings -> Javascript -> Code Quality Tools -> JSHint click Enable and reference to the .jshintrc in your Project.

Second, you should add this two lines of code at the top of all your JavaScript files:

/* global angular */
'use strict';
