Ale: Ale linter is running but not showing any errors

Created on 1 Mar 2017  路  14Comments  路  Source: dense-analysis/ale

I am attempting to get ale running on my new laptop. Looks like from the output of :ALEInfo that ale is running but I am not able to get any indicators in vim. I have the following in my .vimrc

" highlight clear ALEErrorSign " otherwise uses error bg color (typically red)
" highlight clear ALEWarningSign " otherwise uses error bg color (typically red)

let g:ale_linters = {
\  'javascript': ['eslint'],
\}

All of the commented out text is stuff that I've tried to get it working

" let g:ale_sign_error = '馃挘'
" let g:ale_sign_warning = '馃毄'
" let g:ale_statusline_format = ['馃挘 %d', '馃毄 %d', '']

What is the output of eslint -f unix --stdin --stdin-filename /Users/thaas/learning/React/Jest/TestTodo/src/App.js < /Users/thaas/learning/React/Jest/TestTodo/src/App.js from your terminal? Maybe something is wrong there.

Also, are any other linting plugins installed?

It actually started working. I'm not actually sure what was wrong or what fixed it but I'll close this issue.

Turns out I can only get it to work in one project. when I run ALEInfo in the working project I get:

you'll notice the first line goes to a path of '/usres/thaas/Projects/Monsanto/capacity-ontap-ui/node_modules/.bin/eslint' In other projects which arent working I do not get that line. That is the only difference between projects that I have been able to find. Here is the output from a nonworking directory.

I'm curious what happens if you add this to your .vimrc to restrict the JavaScript linters to just eslint and flow:
let g:ale_linters = { \ 'javascript': ['eslint', 'flow'], \}

mvolkmann picture mvolkmann on 6 Mar 2017

Still doesn't work Mark. I did find out that there wasn't an eslint in my node_modules/.bin on my local project. I added it through npm instead of yarn (there is a issue with putting yarn packages in your bin right now) and the output now matches what was being outputted from capacaty-ontap-ui directory (the working one).

here is the new output with the changes mark suggested:

I was able to get it to work correctly when there is a local .eslintrc.json file but if it has to rely on my global one then it stops working.

This was an error in my .eslintrc.json throwing an error.

I might see if I can get the handler for eslint to parse broken configuration file errors, and then report those in files. That might help with configuring eslint.

Got the same here. Without setting eslint as my JS default linter, I get jslint reports, but forcing ale to use eslint returns nothing.

If you pull master again for ALE and try again, you might start seeing some errors about problems with your eslint configuration file. I just implemented #386.
