1. Introduction *ale-introduction*
|
|
|
|
ALE provides the means to run linters asynchronously in Vim in a variety of
|
|
languages and tools. ALE sends the contents of buffers to linter programs
|
|
using the |job-control| features available in Vim 8 and NeoVim. For Vim 8,
|
|
Vim must be compiled with the |job| and |channel| and |timers| features
|
|
as a minimum.
|
|
|
|
ALE supports the following key features for linting:
|
|
|
|
1. Running linters when text is changed.
|
|
2. Running linters when files are opened.
|
|
3. Running linters when files are saved. (When a global flag is set.)
|
|
4. Populating the |loclist| with warning and errors.
|
|
5. Setting |signs| with warnings and errors for error markers.
|
|
6. Using |echo| to show error messages when the cursor moves.
|
|
7. Setting syntax highlights for errors.
|
|
|
|
ALE can fix problems with files with the |ALEFix| command, using the same job
|
|
control functionality used for checking for problems. Try using the
|
|
|ALEFixSuggest| command for browsing tools that can be used to fix problems
|
|
for the current buffer.
|
|
|
|
If you are interested in contributing to the development of ALE, read the
|
|
developer documentation. See |ale-development|
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
2. Supported Languages & Tools *ale-support*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports a wide variety of languages and tools. See |ale-supported-list|
|
|
for the full list.
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
3. Linting *ale-lint*
|
|
|
|
ALE's primary focus is on checking for problems with your code with various
|
|
programs via some Vim code for integrating with those programs, referred to
|
|
as 'linters.' ALE supports a wide array of programs for linting by default,
|
|
but additional programs can be added easily by defining files in |runtimepath|
|
|
with the filename pattern `ale_linters/<filetype>/<filename>.vim`. For more
|
|
information on defining new linters, see the extensive documentation
|
|
for |ale#linter#Define()|.
|
|
|
|
Without any configuration, ALE will attempt to check all of the code for every
|
|
file you open in Vim with all available tools by default. To see what ALE
|
|
is doing, and what options have been set, try using the |:ALEInfo| command.
|
|
|
|
Most of the linters ALE runs will check the Vim buffer you are editing instead
|
|
of the file on disk. This allows you to check your code for errors before you
|
|
have even saved your changes. ALE will check your code in the following
|
|
circumstances, which can be configured with the associated options.
|
|
|
|
* When you modify a buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_text_changed|
|
|
* On leaving insert mode. - |g:ale_lint_on_insert_leave|
|
|
* When you open a new or modified buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_enter|
|
|
* When you save a buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_save|
|
|
* When the filetype changes for a buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_filetype_changed|
|
|
* If ALE is used to check code manually. - |:ALELint|
|
|
|
|
*ale-lint-settings-on-startup*
|
|
|
|
It is worth reading the documentation for every option. You should configure
|
|
which events ALE will use before ALE is loaded, so it can optimize which
|
|
autocmd commands to run. You can force autocmd commands to be reloaded with
|
|
`:ALEDisable | ALEEnable`
|
|
|
|
This also applies to the autocmd commands used for |g:ale_echo_cursor|.
|
|
|
|
*ale-lint-file-linters*
|
|
|
|
Some programs must be run against files which have been saved to disk, and
|
|
simply do not support reading temporary files or stdin, either of which are
|
|
required for ALE to be able to check for errors as you type. The programs
|
|
which behave this way are documented in the lists and tables of supported
|
|
programs. ALE will only lint files with these programs in the following
|
|
circumstances.
|
|
|
|
* When you open a new or modified buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_enter|
|
|
* When you save a buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_save|
|
|
* When the filetype changes for a buffer. - |g:ale_lint_on_filetype_changed|
|
|
* If ALE is used to check code manually. - |:ALELint|
|
|
|
|
ALE will report problems with your code in the following ways, listed with
|
|
their relevant options.
|
|
|
|
* By updating loclist. (On by default) - |g:ale_set_loclist|
|
|
* By updating quickfix. (Off by default) - |g:ale_set_quickfix|
|
|
* By setting error highlights. - |g:ale_set_highlights|
|
|
* By creating signs in the sign column. - |g:ale_set_signs|
|
|
* By echoing messages based on your cursor. - |g:ale_echo_cursor|
|
|
* By inline text based on your cursor. - |g:ale_virtualtext_cursor|
|
|
* By displaying the preview based on your cursor. - |g:ale_cursor_detail|
|
|
* By showing balloons for your mouse cursor - |g:ale_set_balloons|
|
|
|
|
Please consult the documentation for each option, which can reveal some other
|
|
ways of tweaking the behaviour of each way of displaying problems. You can
|
|
disable or enable whichever options you prefer.
|
|
|
|
Most settings can be configured for each buffer. (|b:| instead of |g:|),
|
|
including disabling ALE for certain buffers with |b:ale_enabled|. The
|
|
|g:ale_pattern_options| setting can be used to configure files differently
|
|
based on regular expressions for filenames. For configuring entire projects,
|
|
the buffer-local options can be used with external plugins for reading Vim
|
|
project configuration files. Buffer-local settings can also be used in
|
|
ftplugin files for different filetypes.
|
|
|
|
ALE offers several options for controlling which linters are run.
|
|
|
|
* Selecting linters to run. - |g:ale_linters|
|
|
* Aliasing filetypes for linters - |g:ale_linter_aliases|
|
|
* Only running linters you asked for. - |g:ale_linters_explicit|
|
|
* Disabling only a subset of linters. - |g:ale_linters_ignore|
|
|
* Disabling LSP linters and `tsserver`. - |g:ale_disable_lsp|
|
|
|

|
|
3.1 Adding Language Servers *ale-lint-language-servers*
|
|
|
|
ALE comes with many default configurations for language servers, so they can
|
|
be detected and run automatically. ALE can connect to other language servers
|
|
by defining a new linter for a filetype. New linters can be defined in |vimrc|,
|
|
in plugin files, or `ale_linters` directories in |runtimepath|.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-linter-loading-behavior| for more information on loading linters.
|
|
|
|
A minimal configuration for a language server linter might look so. >
|
|
|
|
call ale#linter#Define('filetype_here', {
|
|
\ 'name': 'any_name_you_want',
|
|
\ 'lsp': 'stdio',
|
|
\ 'executable': '/path/to/executable',
|
|
\ 'command': '%e run',
|
|
\ 'project_root': '/path/to/root_of_project',
|
|
\})
|
|
<
|
|
For language servers that use a TCP socket connection, you should define the
|
|
address to connect to instead. >
|
|
|
|
call ale#linter#Define('filetype_here', {
|
|
\ 'name': 'any_name_you_want',
|
|
\ 'lsp': 'socket',
|
|
\ 'address': 'servername:1234',
|
|
\ 'project_root': '/path/to/root_of_project',
|
|
\})
|
|
<
|
|
Most of the options for a language server can be replaced with a |Funcref|
|
|
for a function accepting a buffer number for dynamically computing values
|
|
such as the executable path, the project path, the server address, etc,
|
|
most of which can also be determined based on executing some other
|
|
asynchronous task. See |ale#command#Run()| for computing linter options
|
|
based on asynchronous results.
|
|
|
|
See |ale#linter#Define()| for a detailed explanation of all of the options
|
|
for configuring linters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
3.2 Other Sources *ale-lint-other-sources*
|
|
|
|
Problems for a buffer can be taken from other sources and rendered by ALE.
|
|
This allows ALE to be used in combination with other plugins which also want
|
|
to display any problems they might find with a buffer. ALE's API includes the
|
|
following components for making this possible.
|
|
|
|
* |ale#other_source#StartChecking()| - Tell ALE that a buffer is being checked.
|
|
* |ale#other_source#ShowResults()| - Show results from another source.
|
|
* |ALEWantResults| - A signal for when ALE wants results.
|
|
|
|
Other resources can provide results for ALE to display at any time, following
|
|
ALE's loclist format. (See |ale-loclist-format|) For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Tell ALE to show some results.
|
|
" This function can be called at any time.
|
|
call ale#other_source#ShowResults(bufnr(''), 'some-linter-name', [
|
|
\ {'text': 'Something went wrong', 'lnum': 13},
|
|
\])
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
Other sources should use a unique name for identifying themselves. A single
|
|
linter name can be used for all problems from another source, or a series of
|
|
unique linter names can be used. Results can be cleared for that source by
|
|
providing an empty List.
|
|
|
|
|ale#other_source#StartChecking()| should be called whenever another source
|
|
starts checking a buffer, so other tools can know that a buffer is being
|
|
checked by some plugin. The |ALEWantResults| autocmd event can be used to
|
|
start checking a buffer for problems every time that ALE does. When
|
|
|ALEWantResults| is signaled, |g:ale_want_results_buffer| will be set to the
|
|
number of the buffer that ALE wants to check.
|
|
|ale#other_source#StartChecking()| should be called synchronously, and other
|
|
sources should perform their checks on a buffer in the background
|
|
asynchronously, so they don't interrupt editing.
|
|
|
|
A plugin might integrate its own checks with ALE like so: >
|
|
|
|
augroup SomeGroupName
|
|
autocmd!
|
|
autocmd User ALEWantResults call Hook(g:ale_want_results_buffer)
|
|
augroup END
|
|
|
|
function! DoBackgroundWork(buffer) abort
|
|
" Start some work in the background here.
|
|
" ...
|
|
" Then call WorkDone(a:buffer, results)
|
|
endfunction
|
|
|
|
function! Hook(buffer) abort
|
|
" Tell ALE we're going to check this buffer.
|
|
call ale#other_source#StartChecking(a:buffer, 'some-name')
|
|
call DoBackgroundWork(a:buffer)
|
|
endfunction
|
|
|
|
function! WorkDone(buffer, results) abort
|
|
" Send results to ALE after they have been collected.
|
|
call ale#other_source#ShowResults(buffer, 'some-name', a:results)
|
|
endfunction
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
4. Fixing Problems *ale-fix*
|
|
|
|
ALE can fix problems with files with the |ALEFix| command. |ALEFix|
|
|
accepts names of fixers to be applied as arguments. Alternatively,
|
|
when no arguments are provided, the variable |g:ale_fixers| will be
|
|
read for getting a |List| of commands for filetypes, split on `.`, and
|
|
the functions named in |g:ale_fixers| will be executed for fixing the
|
|
errors.
|
|
|
|
The |ALEFixSuggest| command can be used to suggest tools that be used to
|
|
fix problems for the current buffer.
|
|
|
|
The values for `g:ale_fixers` can be a list of |String|, |Funcref|, or
|
|
|lambda| values. String values must either name a function, or a short name
|
|
for a function set in the ALE fixer registry.
|
|
|
|
Each function for fixing errors must accept either one argument `(buffer)` or
|
|
two arguments `(buffer, lines)`, representing the buffer being fixed and the
|
|
lines to fix. The functions must return either `0`, for changing nothing, a
|
|
|List| for new lines to set, a |Dictionary| for describing a command to be
|
|
run in the background, or the result of |ale#command#Run()|.
|
|
|
|
Functions receiving a variable number of arguments will not receive the second
|
|
argument `lines`. Functions should name two arguments if the `lines` argument
|
|
is desired. This is required to avoid unnecessary copying of the lines of
|
|
the buffers being checked.
|
|
|
|
When a |Dictionary| is returned for an |ALEFix| callback, the following keys
|
|
are supported for running the commands.
|
|
|
|
`command` A |String| for the command to run. This key is required.
|
|
|
|
When `%t` is included in a command string, a temporary
|
|
file will be created, containing the lines from the file
|
|
after previous adjustment have been done.
|
|
|
|
`read_temporary_file` When set to `1`, ALE will read the contents of the
|
|
temporary file created for `%t`. This option can be used
|
|
for commands which need to modify some file on disk in
|
|
order to fix files.
|
|
|
|
`process_with` An optional callback for post-processing.
|
|
|
|
The callback must accept two arguments,
|
|
`(buffer, output)`, which can be used for converting
|
|
the output from a command into lines to replace the
|
|
buffer's contents with.
|
|
|
|
A |List| of |String|s must be returned.
|
|
|
|
`read_buffer` An optional key for disabling reading the buffer.
|
|
|
|
When set to `0`, ALE will not pipe the buffer's data
|
|
into the command via stdin. This option is ignored and
|
|
the buffer is not read when `read_temporary_file` is
|
|
`1`.
|
|
|
|
This option defaults to `1`.
|
|
|
|
*ale-fix-configuration*
|
|
|
|
Synchronous functions and asynchronous jobs will be run in a sequence for
|
|
fixing files, and can be combined. For example:
|
|
>
|
|
let g:ale_fixers = {
|
|
\ 'javascript': [
|
|
\ 'DoSomething',
|
|
\ 'eslint',
|
|
\ {buffer, lines -> filter(lines, 'v:val !=~ ''^\s*//''')},
|
|
\ ],
|
|
\}
|
|
|
|
ALEFix
|
|
<
|
|
The above example will call a function called `DoSomething` which could act
|
|
upon some lines immediately, then run `eslint` from the ALE registry, and
|
|
then call a lambda function which will remove every single line comment
|
|
from the file.
|
|
|
|
For buffer-local settings, such as in |g:ale_pattern_options| or in ftplugin
|
|
files, a |List| may be used for configuring the fixers instead.
|
|
>
|
|
" Same as the above, only a List can be used instead of a Dictionary.
|
|
let b:ale_fixers = [
|
|
\ 'DoSomething',
|
|
\ 'eslint',
|
|
\ {buffer, lines -> filter(lines, 'v:val !=~ ''^\s*//''')},
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
ALEFix
|
|
<
|
|
For convenience, a plug mapping is defined for |ALEFix|, so you can set up a
|
|
keybind easily for fixing files. >
|
|
|
|
" Bind F8 to fixing problems with ALE
|
|
nmap <F8> <Plug>(ale_fix)
|
|
<
|
|
Files can be fixed automatically with the following options, which are all off
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_fix_on_save| - Fix files when they are saved.
|
|
|
|
Fixers can be disabled on save with |g:ale_fix_on_save_ignore|. They will
|
|
still be run when you manually run |ALEFix|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
5. Language Server Protocol Support *ale-lsp*
|
|
|
|
ALE offers some support for integrating with Language Server Protocol (LSP)
|
|
servers. LSP linters can be used in combination with any other linter, and
|
|
will automatically connect to LSP servers when needed. ALE also supports
|
|
`tsserver` for TypeScript, which uses a different but very similar protocol.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use another plugin for LSP features and tsserver, you can use
|
|
the |g:ale_disable_lsp| setting to disable ALE's own LSP integrations, or
|
|
ignore particular linters with |g:ale_linters_ignore|.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
5.1 Completion *ale-completion*
|
|
|
|
ALE offers support for automatic completion of code while you type.
|
|
Completion is only supported while at least one LSP linter is enabled. ALE
|
|
will only suggest symbols provided by the LSP servers.
|
|
|
|
*ale-deoplete-integration*
|
|
|
|
ALE integrates with Deoplete for offering automatic completion data. ALE's
|
|
completion source for Deoplete is named `'ale'`, and should enabled
|
|
automatically if Deoplete is enabled and configured correctly. Deoplete
|
|
integration should not be combined with ALE's own implementation.
|
|
|
|
*ale-asyncomplete-integration*
|
|
|
|
ALE additionally integrates with asyncomplete.vim for offering automatic
|
|
completion data. ALE's asyncomplete source requires registration and should
|
|
use the defaults provided by the|asyncomplete#sources#ale#get_source_options| function >
|
|
|
|
" Use ALE's function for asyncomplete defaults
|
|
au User asyncomplete_setup call asyncomplete#register_source(asyncomplete#sources#ale#get_source_options({
|
|
\ 'priority': 10, " Provide your own overrides here
|
|
\ }))
|
|
>
|
|
ALE also offers its own completion implementation, which does not require any
|
|
other plugins. Suggestions will be made while you type after completion is
|
|
enabled. ALE's own completion implementation can be enabled by setting
|
|
|g:ale_completion_enabled| to `1`. This setting must be set to `1` before ALE
|
|
is loaded. The delay for completion can be configured with
|
|
|g:ale_completion_delay|. This setting should not be enabled if you wish to
|
|
use ALE as a completion source for other plugins.
|
|
|
|
ALE provides an 'omnifunc' function |ale#completion#OmniFunc| for triggering
|
|
completion manually with CTRL-X CTRL-O. |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O| >
|
|
|
|
" Use ALE's function for omnicompletion.
|
|
set omnifunc=ale#completion#OmniFunc
|
|
<
|
|
ALE will only suggest so many possible matches for completion. The maximum
|
|
number of items can be controlled with |g:ale_completion_max_suggestions|.
|
|
|
|
If you don't like some of the suggestions you see, you can filter them out
|
|
with |g:ale_completion_excluded_words| or |b:ale_completion_excluded_words|.
|
|
|
|
The |ALEComplete| command can be used to show completion suggestions manually,
|
|
even when |g:ale_completion_enabled| is set to `0`. For manually requesting
|
|
completion information with Deoplete, consult Deoplete's documentation.
|
|
|
|
When working with TypeScript files, ALE by can support automatic imports
|
|
from external modules. This behavior can be enabled by setting the
|
|
|g:ale_completion_tsserver_autoimport| variable to `1`.
|
|
|
|
*ale-completion-completeopt-bug*
|
|
|
|
ALE Automatic completion implementation replaces |completeopt| before opening
|
|
the omnicomplete menu with <C-x><C-o>. In some versions of Vim, the value set
|
|
for the option will not be respected. If you experience issues with Vim
|
|
automatically inserting text while you type, set the following option in
|
|
vimrc, and your issues should go away. >
|
|
|
|
set completeopt=menu,menuone,preview,noselect,noinsert
|
|
<
|
|
*ale-symbols*
|
|
|
|
ALE provides a set of basic completion symbols. If you want to replace those
|
|
symbols with others, you can set the variable |g:ale_completion_symbols| with
|
|
a mapping of the type of completion to the symbol or other string that you
|
|
would like to use. An example here shows the available options for symbols >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_completion_symbols = {
|
|
\ 'text': '',
|
|
\ 'method': '',
|
|
\ 'function': '',
|
|
\ 'constructor': '',
|
|
\ 'field': '',

\ 'variable': '',
|
|
\ 'class': '',

|
\ 'constant': '',

|
\ 'struct': '',

|
\ 'event': 'event',
|

5.2 Go To Definition *ale-go-to-definition*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports jumping to the files and locations where symbols are defined
|
|
through any enabled LSP linters. The locations ALE will jump to depend on the
|
|
information returned by LSP servers. The following commands are supported:
|
|
|
|
|ALEGoToDefinition| - Open the definition of the symbol under the cursor.
|
|
|ALEGoToDefinitionInTab| - The same, but for opening the file in a new tab.
|
|
|ALEGoToDefinitionInSplit| - The same, but in a new split.
|
|
|ALEGoToDefinitionInVSplit| - The same, but in a new vertical split.
|
|
|
|
ALE will update Vim's |tagstack| automatically unless |g:ale_update_tagstack| is
|
|
set to `0`.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
5.3 Go To Type Definition *ale-go-to-type-definition*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports jumping to the files and locations where symbols' types are
|
|
defined through any enabled LSP linters. The locations ALE will jump to depend
|
|
on the information returned by LSP servers. The following commands are
|
|
supported:
|
|
|
|
|ALEGoToTypeDefinition| - Open the definition of the symbol's type under
|
|
the cursor.
|
|
|ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInTab| - The same, but for opening the file in a new tab.
|
|
|ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInSplit| - The same, but in a new split.
|
|
|ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInVSplit| - The same, but in a new vertical split.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
5.4 Find References *ale-find-references*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports finding references for symbols though any enabled LSP linters.
|
|
ALE will display a preview window showing the places where a symbol is
|
|
referenced in a codebase when a command is run. The following commands are
|
|
supported:
|
|
|
|
|ALEFindReferences| - Find references for the word under the cursor.
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
`-relative` Show file paths in the results relative to the working dir
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
5.5 Hovering *ale-hover*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports "hover" information for printing brief information about symbols
|
|
at the cursor taken from LSP linters. The following commands are supported:
|
|
|
|
|ALEHover| - Print information about the symbol at the cursor.
|
|
|
|
If |g:ale_set_balloons| is set to `1` and your version of Vim supports the
|
|
|balloon_show()| function, then "hover" information also show up when you move
|
|
the mouse over a symbol in a buffer. Diagnostic information will take priority
|
|
over hover information for balloons. If a line contains a problem, that
|
|
problem will be displayed in a balloon instead of hover information.
|
|
|
|
For Vim 8.1+ terminals, mouse hovering is disabled by default. Enabling
|
|
|balloonexpr| commands in terminals can cause scrolling issues in terminals,
|
|
so ALE will not attempt to show balloons unless |g:ale_set_balloons| is set to
|
|
`1` before ALE is loaded.
|
|
|
|
For enabling mouse support in terminals, you may have to change your mouse
|
|
settings. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Example mouse settings.
|
|
" You will need to try different settings, depending on your terminal.
|
|
set mouse=a
|
|
set ttymouse=xterm
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
Documentation for symbols at the cursor can be retrieved using the
|
|
|ALEDocumentation| command. This command is only available for `tsserver`.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
5.6 Symbol Search *ale-symbol-search*
|
|
|
|
ALE supports searching for workspace symbols via LSP linters. The following
|
|
commands are supported:
|
|
|
|
|ALESymbolSearch| - Search for symbols in the workspace.
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
`-relative` Show file paths in the results relative to the working dir
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
6. Global Options *ale-options*
|
|
|
|
g:airline#extensions#ale#enabled *g:airline#extensions#ale#enabled*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
Enables or disables the |airline|'s native extension for ale, which displays
|
|
warnings and errors in the status line, prefixed by
|
|
|airline#extensions#ale#error_symbol| and
|
|
|airline#extensions#ale#warning_symbol|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_cache_executable_check_failures *g:ale_cache_executable_check_failures*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: undefined
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, ALE will cache failing executable checks for linters. By
|
|
default, only executable checks which succeed will be cached.
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, Vim will have to be restarted after new
|
|
executables are installed for ALE to be able to run linters for those
|
|
executables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_change_sign_column_color *g:ale_change_sign_column_color*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, this option will set different highlights for the sign
|
|
column itself when ALE reports problems with a file. This option can be
|
|
combined with |g:ale_sign_column_always|.
|
|
|
|
ALE uses the following highlight groups for highlighting the sign column:
|
|
|
|
`ALESignColumnWithErrors` - Links to `error` by default.
|
|
`ALESignColumnWithoutErrors` - Uses the value for `SignColumn` by default.
|
|
|
|
The sign column color can only be changed globally in Vim. The sign column
|
|
might produce unexpected results if editing different files in split
|
|
windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_close_preview_on_insert *g:ale_close_preview_on_insert*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, ALE's |preview-window| will be automatically
|
|
closed upon entering Insert Mode. This option can be used in combination
|
|
with |g:ale_cursor_detail| for automatically displaying the preview window
|
|
on problem lines, and automatically closing it again when editing text.
|
|
|
|
This setting must be set to `1` before ALE is loaded for this behavior
|
|
to be enabled. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_command_wrapper *g:ale_command_wrapper*
|
|
*b:ale_command_wrapper*
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `''`
|
|
|
|
An option for wrapping all commands that ALE runs, for linters, fixers,
|
|
and LSP commands. This option can be set globally, or for specific buffers.
|
|
|
|
This option can be used to apply nice to all commands. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Prefix all commands with nice.
|
|
let g:ale_command_wrapper = 'nice -n5'
|
|
<
|
|
Use the |ALEInfo| command to view the commands that are run. All of the
|
|
arguments for commands will be put on the end of the wrapped command by
|
|
default. A `%*` marker can be used to spread the arguments in the wrapped
|
|
command. >
|
|
|
|
" Has the same effect as the above.
|
|
let g:ale_command_wrapper = 'nice -n5 %*'
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
For passing all of the arguments for a command as one argument to a wrapper,
|
|
`%@` can be used instead. >
|
|
|
|
" Will result in say: /bin/bash -c 'other-wrapper -c "some command" -x'
|
|
let g:ale_command_wrapper = 'other-wrapper -c %@ -x'
|
|
<
|
|
For commands including `&&` or `;`, only the last command in the list will
|
|
be passed to the wrapper. `&&` is most commonly used in ALE to change the
|
|
working directory before running a command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_delay *g:ale_completion_delay*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `100`
|
|
|
|
The number of milliseconds before ALE will send a request to a language
|
|
server for completions after you have finished typing.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-completion|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_enabled *g:ale_completion_enabled*
|
|
b:ale_completion_enabled *b:ale_completion_enabled*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, completion support will be enabled.
|
|
|
|
This setting must be set to `1` before ALE is loaded for this behavior
|
|
to be enabled.
|
|
|
|
This setting should not be enabled if you wish to use ALE as a completion
|
|
source for other completion plugins.
|
|
|
|
A buffer-local version of this setting `b:ale_completion_enabled` can be set
|
|
to `0` to disable ALE's automatic completion support for a single buffer.
|
|
ALE's completion support must be enabled globally to be enabled locally.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-completion|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_tsserver_autoimport *g:ale_completion_tsserver_autoimport*
|
|
|
|
Type: Number
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `0`, ALE will not try to automatically import
|
|
completion results from external modules. It can be enabled by setting it
|
|
to `1`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_excluded_words *g:ale_completion_excluded_words*
|
|
*b:ale_completion_excluded_words*
|
|
Type: |List|
|
|
Default: `[]`
|
|
|
|
This option can be set to a list of |String| values for "words" to exclude
|
|
from completion results, as in the words for |complete-items|. The strings
|
|
will be matched exactly in a case-sensitive manner. (|==#|)
|
|
|
|
This setting can be configured in ftplugin files with buffer variables, so
|
|
that different lists can be used for different filetypes. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" In ~/.vim/ftplugin/typescript.vim
|
|
|
|
" Don't suggest `it` or `describe` so we can use snippets for those words.
|
|
let b:ale_completion_excluded_words = ['it', 'describe']
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_symbols *g:ale_completion_symbols*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Dictionary|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A mapping from completion types to symbols for completions. See
|
|
|ale-symbols| for more information.
|
|
|
|
By default, this mapping only uses built in Vim completion kinds, but it can
|
|
be updated to use any unicode character for the completion kind. For
|
|
example: >
|
|
let g:ale_completion_symbols = {
|
|
\ 'text': '',
|
|
\ 'method': '',
|
|
\ 'function': '',
|
|
\ 'constructor': '',
|
|
\ 'field': '',
|
|
\ 'variable': '',
|
|
\ 'class': '',
|
|
\ 'interface': '',
|
|
\ 'module': '',
|
|
\ 'property': '',
|
|
\ 'unit': 'v',
|
|
\ 'value': 'v',
|
|
\ 'enum': 't',
|
|
\ 'keyword': 'v',
|
|
\ 'snippet': 'v',
|
|
\ 'color': 'v',
|
|
\ 'file': 'v',
|
|
\ 'reference': 'v',
|
|
\ 'folder': 'v',
|
|
\ 'enum_member': 'm',
|
|
\ 'constant': 'm',
|
|
\ 'struct': 't',
|
|
\ 'event': 'v',
|
|
\ 'operator': 'f',
|
|
\ 'type_parameter': 'p',
|
|
\ '<default>': 'v'
|
|
\ })
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
g:ale_completion_max_suggestions *g:ale_completion_max_suggestions*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `50`
|
|
|
|
The maximum number of items ALE will suggest in completion menus for
|
|
automatic completion.
|
|
|
|
Setting this number higher will require more processing time, and may
|
|
suggest too much noise. Setting this number lower will require less
|
|
processing time, but some suggestions will not be included, so you might not
|
|
be able to see the suggestions you want.
|
|
|
|
Adjust this option as needed, depending on the complexity of your codebase
|
|
and your available processing power.
|
|
|
|
g:ale_cursor_detail *g:ale_cursor_detail*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, ALE's |preview-window| will be automatically
|
|
opened when the cursor moves onto lines with problems. ALE will search for
|
|
problems using the same logic that |g:ale_echo_cursor| uses. The preview
|
|
window will be closed automatically when you move away from the line.
|
|
|
|
Messages are only displayed after a short delay. See |g:ale_echo_delay|.
|
|
|
|
The preview window is opened without stealing focus, which means your cursor
|
|
will stay in the same buffer as it currently is.
|
|
|
|
The preview window can be closed automatically upon entering Insert mode
|
|
by setting |g:ale_close_preview_on_insert| to `1`.
|
|
|
|
Either this setting or |g:ale_echo_cursor| must be set to `1` before ALE is
|
|
loaded for messages to be displayed. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_disable_lsp *g:ale_disable_lsp*
|
|
*b:ale_disable_lsp*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, ALE ignores all linters powered by LSP,
|
|
and also `tsserver`.
|
|
|
|
Please see also |ale-lsp|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_cursor *g:ale_echo_cursor*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, a truncated message will be echoed when a
|
|
cursor is near a warning or error. ALE will attempt to find the warning or
|
|
error at a column nearest to the cursor when the cursor is resting on a line
|
|
which contains a warning or error. This option can be set to `0` to disable
|
|
this behavior.
|
|
|
|
Messages are only displayed after a short delay. See |g:ale_echo_delay|.
|
|
|
|
The format of the message can be customized with |g:ale_echo_msg_format|.
|
|
|
|
Either this setting or |g:ale_cursor_detail| must be set to `1` before ALE
|
|
is loaded for messages to be displayed. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_delay *g:ale_echo_delay*
|
|
*b:ale_echo_delay*
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `10`
|
|
|
|
Given any integer, this option controls the number of milliseconds before
|
|
ALE will echo or preview a message for a problem near the cursor.
|
|
|
|
The value can be increased to decrease the amount of processing ALE will do
|
|
for files displaying a large number of problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_msg_error_str *g:ale_echo_msg_error_str*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'Error'`
|
|
|
|
The string used for `%severity%` for errors. See |g:ale_echo_msg_format|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_msg_format *g:ale_echo_msg_format*
|
|
b:ale_echo_msg_format *b:ale_echo_msg_format*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'%code: %%s'`
|
|
|
|
This variable defines a message format for echoed messages. The following
|
|
sequences of characters will be replaced.
|
|
|
|
`%s` - replaced with the text for the problem
|
|
`%...code...% `- replaced with the error code
|
|
`%linter%` - replaced with the name of the linter
|
|
`%severity%` - replaced with the severity of the problem
|
|
|
|
The strings for `%severity%` can be configured with the following options.
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_echo_msg_error_str| - Defaults to `'Error'`
|
|
|g:ale_echo_msg_info_str| - Defaults to `'Info'`
|
|
|g:ale_echo_msg_warning_str| - Defaults to `'Warning'`
|
|
|
|
`%code%` is replaced with the error code, and replaced with an empty string
|
|
when there is no error code. Any extra characters between the percent signs
|
|
will be printed when an error code is present. For example, a message like
|
|
`(error code): message` will be printed for `'%(code): %%s'` and simply the
|
|
message will be printed when there is no code.
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_echo_cursor| needs to be set to 1 for messages to be displayed.
|
|
|
|
The echo message format can also be configured separately for each buffer,
|
|
so different formats can be used for different languages. (Say in ftplugin
|
|
files.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_msg_info_str *g:ale_echo_msg_info_str*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'Info'`
|
|
|
|
The string used for `%severity%` for info. See |g:ale_echo_msg_format|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_msg_log_str *g:ale_echo_msg_log_str*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'Log'`
|
|
|
|
The string used for `%severity%` for log, used only for handling LSP show
|
|
message requests. See |g:ale_lsp_show_message_format|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_echo_msg_warning_str *g:ale_echo_msg_warning_str*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'Warning'`
|
|
|
|
The string used for `%severity%` for warnings. See |g:ale_echo_msg_format|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_enabled *g:ale_enabled*
|
|
*b:ale_enabled*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When set to `0`, this option will completely disable ALE, such that no
|
|
error checking will be performed, etc. ALE can be toggled on and off with
|
|
the |ALEToggle| command, which changes this option.
|
|
|
|
ALE can be disabled in each buffer by setting `let b:ale_enabled = 0`
|
|
Disabling ALE based on filename patterns can be accomplished by setting
|
|
a regular expression for |g:ale_pattern_options|. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Disable linting for all minified JS files.
|
|
let g:ale_pattern_options = {'\.min.js$': {'ale_enabled': 0}}
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
See |g:ale_pattern_options| for more information on that option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_fixers *g:ale_fixers*
|
|
*b:ale_fixers*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Dictionary|
|
|
Default: `{}`
|
|
|
|
A mapping from filetypes to |List| values for functions for fixing errors.
|
|
See |ale-fix| for more information.
|
|
|
|
This variable can be overridden with variables in each buffer.
|
|
`b:ale_fixers` can be set to a |List| of callbacks instead, which can be
|
|
more convenient.
|
|
|
|
A special `'*'` key be used as a wildcard filetype for configuring fixers
|
|
for every other type of file. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Fix Python files with 'bar'.
|
|
" Don't fix 'html' files.
|
|
" Fix everything else with 'foo'.
|
|
let g:ale_fixers = {'python': ['bar'], 'html': [], '*': ['foo']}
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
g:ale_fix_on_save *g:ale_fix_on_save*
|
|
b:ale_fix_on_save *b:ale_fix_on_save*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When set to 1, ALE will fix files when they are saved.
|
|
|
|
If |g:ale_lint_on_save| is set to 1, files will be checked with linters
|
|
after files are fixed, only when the buffer is open, or re-opened. Changes
|
|
to the file will be saved to the file on disk.
|
|
|
|
Files will not be fixed on `:wq`, so you should check your code before
|
|
closing a buffer.
|
|
|
|
Fixing files can be disabled or enabled for individual buffers by setting
|
|
`b:ale_fix_on_save` to `0` or `1`.
|
|
|
|
Some fixers can be excluded from being run automatically when you save files
|
|
with the |g:ale_fix_on_save_ignore| setting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_fix_on_save_ignore *g:ale_fix_on_save_ignore*
|
|
b:ale_fix_on_save_ignore *b:ale_fix_on_save_ignore*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Dictionary| or |List|
|
|
Default: `{}`
|
|
|
|
Given a |Dictionary| mapping filetypes to |Lists| of fixers to ignore, or
|
|
just a |List| of fixers to ignore, exclude those fixers from being run
|
|
automatically when files are saved.
|
|
|
|
You can disable some fixers in your ftplugin file: >
|
|
|
|
" Disable fixers 'b' and 'c' when fixing on safe for this buffer.
|
|
let b:ale_fix_on_save_ignore = ['b', 'c']
|
|
" Alternatively, define ignore lists for different filetypes.
|
|
let b:ale_fix_on_save_ignore = {'foo': ['b'], 'bar': ['c']}
|
|
<
|
|
You can disable some fixers globally per filetype like so: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_fixers = {'foo': ['a', 'b'], 'bar': ['c', 'd']}
|
|
let g:ale_fix_on_save = 1
|
|
" For filetype `foo.bar`, only fixers 'b' and 'd' will be run on save.
|
|
let g:ale_fix_on_save_ignore = {'foo': ['a'], 'bar': ['c']}
|
|
" Alternatively, disable these fixers on save for all filetypes.

g:ale_history_enabled *g:ale_history_enabled*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, ALE will remember the last few commands which were run
|
|
for every buffer which is open. This information can be viewed with the
|
|
|ALEInfo| command. The size of the buffer can be controlled with the
|
|
|g:ale_max_buffer_history_size| option.
|
|
|
|
This option can be disabled if storing a command history is not desired.

g:ale_history_log_output *g:ale_history_log_output*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, ALE will store the output of commands which have completed
|
|
successfully in the command history, and the output will be displayed when
|
|
using |ALEInfo|.
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_history_enabled| must be set to `1` for this output to be stored or
|
|
printed.
|
|
|
|
Some memory will be consumed by this option. It is very useful for figuring
|
|
out what went wrong with linters, and for bug reports. Turn this option off
|
|
if you want to save on some memory usage.

Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, this option will keep the loclist or quickfix windows event
|
|
after all warnings/errors have been removed for files. By default the
|
|
loclist or quickfix windows will be closed automatically when there are no

|
|
*b:ale_list_window_size*
|

Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `10`
|
|
|
|
This number configures the number of lines to set for the height of windows
|
|
opened automatically for ALE problems. The default of `10` matches the Vim
|
|
default height.
|
|
|
|

g:ale_lint_delay *g:ale_lint_delay*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `200`
|
|
|
|
This variable controls the milliseconds delay after which the linters will
|
|
be run after text is changed. This option is only meaningful with the
|
|
|g:ale_lint_on_text_changed| variable set to `always`, `insert`, or `normal`.

g:ale_lint_on_enter *g:ale_lint_on_enter*
|
|
|

Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, the |BufWinEnter| event will be used to
|
|
apply linters when buffers are first opened. If this is not desired, this
|
|
variable can be set to `0` in your vimrc file to disable this behavior.
|
|
|
|
The |FileChangedShellPost| and |BufEnter| events will be used to check if
|
|
files have been changed outside of Vim. If a file is changed outside of
|
|
Vim, it will be checked when it is next opened.
|
|
|
|
You should set this setting once before ALE is loaded, and restart Vim if
|
|
you want to change your preferences. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.

g:ale_lint_on_filetype_changed *g:ale_lint_on_filetype_changed*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
This option will cause ALE to run when the filetype for a file is changed
|
|
after a buffer has first been loaded. A short delay will be used before
|
|
linting will be done, so the filetype can be changed quickly several times
|
|
in a row, but resulting in only one lint cycle.
|
|
|
|
You should set this setting once before ALE is loaded, and restart Vim if
|
|
you want to change your preferences. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.

g:ale_lint_on_save *g:ale_lint_on_save*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
This option will make ALE run the linters whenever a file is saved when it
|
|
it set to `1` in your vimrc file. This option can be used in combination
|
|
with the |g:ale_lint_on_enter| and |g:ale_lint_on_text_changed| options to
|
|
make ALE only check files after that have been saved, if that is what is
|
|
desired.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_lint_on_text_changed *g:ale_lint_on_text_changed*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'normal'`
|
|
|
|
This option controls how ALE will check your files as you make changes.
|
|
The following values can be used.
|
|
|
|
`'always'`, `'1'`, or `1` - Check buffers on |TextChanged| or |TextChangedI|.
|
|
`'normal'` - Check buffers only on |TextChanged|.
|
|
`'insert'` - Check buffers only on |TextChangedI|.
|
|
`'never'`, `'0'`, or `0` - Never check buffers on changes.
|
|
|
|
ALE will check buffers after a short delay, with a timer which resets on
|
|
each change. The delay can be configured by adjusting the |g:ale_lint_delay|
|
|
variable.
|
|
*ale-linting-interrupts-mapping*
|
|
|
|
Due to a bug in Vim, ALE can interrupt mappings with pending key presses,
|
|
per |timeoutlen|. If this happens, follow the advice for enabling
|
|
|g:ale_lint_on_insert_leave| below, and set this option to `'normal'`, or
|
|
disable it entirely.
|
|
|
|
You should set this setting once before ALE is loaded, and restart Vim if
|
|
you want to change your preferences. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.

|
|
g:ale_lint_on_insert_leave *g:ale_lint_on_insert_leave*
|
|
*b:ale_lint_on_insert_leave*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1` in your vimrc file, this option will cause ALE to run
|
|
linters when you leave insert mode.
|
|
|
|
ALE will not lint files when you escape insert mode with |CTRL-C| by
|
|
default. You can make ALE lint files with this option when you use |CTRL-C|
|
|
with the following mapping. >
|
|
|
|
" Make using Ctrl+C do the same as Escape, to trigger autocmd commands
|
|
inoremap <C-c> <Esc>
|
|
<
|
|
A buffer-local version of this setting `b:ale_lint_on_insert_leave` can be
|
|
set to `0` to disable linting when leaving insert mode. The setting must
|
|
be enabled globally to be enabled locally.
|
|
|

You should set this setting once before ALE is loaded, and restart Vim if
|
|
you want to change your preferences. See |ale-lint-settings-on-startup|.

g:ale_linter_aliases *g:ale_linter_aliases*
|
|
*b:ale_linter_aliases*
|
|
Type: |Dictionary|
|
|
Default: `{}`
|
|
|
|
The |g:ale_linter_aliases| option can be used to set aliases from one
|
|
filetype to another. A given filetype can be mapped to use the linters
|
|
run for another given filetype.
|
|
|
|
This |Dictionary| will be merged with a default dictionary containing the
|
|
following values: >
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
\ 'Dockerfile': 'dockerfile',
|
|
\ 'csh': 'sh',
|

\}
|
|
<
|
|
For example, if you wish to map a new filetype `'foobar'` to run the `'php'`
|
|
linters, you could set the following: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_linter_aliases = {'foobar': 'php'}
|
|
<
|
|
When combined with the |g:ale_linters| option, the original filetype
|
|
(`'foobar'`) will be used for determining which linters to run,
|
|
not the aliased type (`'php'`). This allows an aliased type to run a
|
|
different set of linters from the type it is being mapped to.
|
|
|
|
Passing a list of filetypes is also supported. Say you want to lint
|
|
javascript and css embedded in HTML (using linters that support that).
|
|
You could alias `html` like so:
|
|
|
|
`let g:ale_linter_aliases = {'html': ['html', 'javascript', 'css']}`
|
|
|
|
Note that `html` itself was included as an alias. That is because aliases
|
|
will override the original linters for the aliased filetype.
|
|
|
|
Linter aliases can be configured in each buffer with buffer-local variables.
|
|
ALE will first look for aliases for filetypes in the `b:ale_linter_aliases`
|
|
variable, then `g:ale_linter_aliases`, and then a default Dictionary.
|
|
|
|
`b:ale_linter_aliases` can be set to a |List| or a |String|, to tell ALE to
|
|
load the linters for specific filetypes for a given buffer. >
|
|
|
|
let b:ale_linter_aliases = ['html', 'javascript', 'css']
|
|
" OR, Alias a filetype to only a single filetype with a String.
|
|
let b:ale_linter_aliases = 'javascript'
|
|
<
|
|
No linters will be loaded when the buffer's filetype is empty.
|
|
|
|
g:ale_linters *g:ale_linters*
|
|
*b:ale_linters*
|
|
Type: |Dictionary|
|
|
Default: `{}`
|
|
|
|
The |g:ale_linters| option sets a |Dictionary| mapping a filetype to a
|
|
|List| of linter programs to be run when checking particular filetypes.
|
|
|
|
This |Dictionary| will be merged with a default dictionary containing the
|
|
following values: >
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
\ 'csh': ['shell'],
|
|
\ 'elixir': ['credo', 'dialyxir', 'dogma'],

|
<
|
|
This option can be used to enable only a particular set of linters for a
|
|
file. For example, you can enable only `eslint` for JavaScript files: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_linters = {'javascript': ['eslint']}
|
|
<
|
|
If you want to disable all linters for a particular filetype, you can pass
|
|
an empty list of linters as the value: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_linters = {'javascript': []}
|
|
<
|
|
All linters will be run for unspecified filetypes. All available linters can
|
|
be enabled explicitly for a given filetype by passing the string `'all'`,
|
|
instead of a List. >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_linters = {'c': 'all'}
|
|
<
|
|
Linters can be configured in each buffer with buffer-local variables. ALE
|
|
will first look for linters for filetypes in the `b:ale_linters` variable,
|
|
then `g:ale_linters`, and then the default Dictionary mentioned above.
|
|
|
|
`b:ale_linters` can be set to a List, or the string `'all'`. When linters
|
|
for two different filetypes share the same name, the first linter loaded
|
|
will be used. Any ambiguity can be resolved by using a Dictionary specifying
|
|
which linter to run for which filetype instead. >
|
|
|
|
" Use ESLint for the buffer if the filetype includes 'javascript'.
|
|
let b:ale_linters = {'javascript': ['eslint'], 'html': ['tidy']}
|
|
" Use a List for the same setting. This will work in most cases.
|
|
let b:ale_linters = ['eslint', 'tidy']
|
|
" Disable all linters for the buffer.
|
|
let b:ale_linters = []
|
|
" Explicitly enable all available linters for the filetype.
|
|
let b:ale_linters = 'all'
|
|
<
|
|
ALE can be configured to disable all linters unless otherwise specified with

Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, only the linters from |g:ale_linters| and |b:ale_linters|

will be enabled. The default behavior for ALE is to enable as many linters
|
|
as possible, unless otherwise specified.

Linters to ignore. Commands for ignored linters will not be run, and
|
|
diagnostics for LSP linters will be ignored. (See |ale-lsp|)
|
|
|
|
This setting can be set to a |Dictionary| mapping filetypes to linter names,
|
|
just like |g:ale_linters|, to list linters to ignore. Ignore lists will be

Default: `g:ale_echo_msg_format`
|
|
|
|
This option is the same as |g:ale_echo_msg_format|, but for formatting the
|
|
message used for the loclist and the quickfix list.
|
|
|
|
The strings for configuring `%severity%` are also used for this option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_lsp_show_message_format *g:ale_lsp_show_message_format*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'%severity%:%linter%: %s'`
|
|
|
|
This variable defines the format that messages received from an LSP will
|
|
have when echoed. The following sequences of characters will be replaced.
|
|
|
|
`%s` - replaced with the message text
|
|
`%linter%` - replaced with the name of the linter
|
|
`%severity%` - replaced with the severity of the message
|
|
|
|
The strings for `%severity%` levels "error", "info" and "warning" are shared
|
|
with |g:ale_echo_msg_format|. Severity "log" is unique to
|
|
|g:ale_lsp_show_message_format| and it can be configured via
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_echo_msg_log_str| - Defaults to `'Log'`
|
|

Please note that |g:ale_lsp_show_message_format| *can not* be configured
|
|
separately for each buffer like |g:ale_echo_msg_format| can.

|
|
g:ale_lsp_show_message_severity *g:ale_lsp_show_message_severity*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'error'`
|
|
|
|
This variable defines the minimum severity level an LSP message needs to be
|
|
displayed. Messages below this level are discarded; please note that
|
|
messages with `Log` severity level are always discarded.
|
|
|
|
Possible values follow the LSP spec `MessageType` definition:
|
|
|
|
`'error'` - Displays only errors.
|
|
`'warning'` - Displays errors and warnings.
|
|
`'information'` - Displays errors, warnings and infos
|
|
`'log'` - Same as `'information'`
|
|
`'disabled'` - Doesn't display any information at all.

b:ale_lsp_root *b:ale_lsp_root*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Dictionary| or |String|
|
|
Default: {}
|
|
|
|
This option is used to determine the project root for the LSP linter. If the
|
|
value is a |Dictionary|, it maps a linter to either a string containing the
|
|
project root or a |Funcref| to call to look up the root. The funcref is
|
|
provided the buffer number as its argument.
|
|
|
|
The buffer-specific variable may additionally be a string containing the
|
|
project root itself.
|
|
|
|
If neither variable yields a result, a linter-specific function is invoked to
|
|
detect a project root. If this, too, yields no result, the linter is disabled.

g:ale_max_buffer_history_size *g:ale_max_buffer_history_size*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `20`
|
|
|
|
This setting controls the maximum number of commands which will be stored in
|
|
the command history used for |ALEInfo|. Command history will be rotated in
|
|
a FIFO manner. If set to a number <= 0, then the history will be
|
|
continuously set to an empty |List|.

Default: `-1`
|
|
|
|
When set to any positive integer, ALE will not render any more than the
|
|
given number of signs for any one buffer.
|
|
|
|
When set to `0`, no signs will be set, but sign processing will still be
|
|
done, so existing signs can be removed.
|
|
|
|
When set to any other value, no limit will be imposed on the number of signs
|
|
set.

g:ale_maximum_file_size *g:ale_maximum_file_size*
|
|
*b:ale_maximum_file_size*

|
*b:ale_open_list*
|

When set to `1`, this will cause ALE to automatically open a window for the
|
|
loclist (|lopen|) or for the quickfix list instead if |g:ale_set_quickfix|
|
|
is `1`. (|copen|)
|
|
|
|
When set to `'on_save'`, ALE will only open the loclist after buffers have
|
|
been saved. The list will be opened some time after buffers are saved and
|
|
any linter for a buffer returns results.
|
|
|
|
The window will be kept open until all warnings or errors are cleared,
|
|
including those not set by ALE, unless |g:ale_keep_list_window_open| is set
|
|
to `1`, in which case the window will be kept open when no problems are
|
|
found.
|
|
|
|
The window size can be configured with |g:ale_list_window_size|.
|
|
|
|
Windows can be opened vertically with |g:ale_list_vertical|.
|
|
|
|
If you want to close the loclist window automatically when the buffer is
|
|
closed, you can set up the following |autocmd| command: >
|

See |b:ale_linters| and |b:ale_fixers| for information for those options.
|
|
|
|
Filenames are matched with |match()|, and patterns depend on the |magic|
|
|
setting, unless prefixed with the special escape sequences like `'\v'`, etc.
|
|
The patterns can match any part of a filename. The absolute path of the
|
|
filename will be used for matching, taken from `expand('%:p')`.
|
|
|
|
The options for every match for the filename will be applied, with the
|
|
pattern keys sorted in alphabetical order. Options for `'zebra'` will
|
|
override the options for `'alpha'` for a filename `alpha-zebra`.
|

|
|
|
|
g:ale_pattern_options_enabled *g:ale_pattern_options_enabled*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: undefined
|
|
|
|
This option can be used for disabling pattern options. If set to `0`, ALE
|
|
will not set buffer variables per |g:ale_pattern_options|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_rename_tsserver_find_in_comments *g:ale_rename_tsserver_find_in_comments*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
If enabled, this option will tell tsserver to find and replace text in
|
|
comments when calling |ALERename|. It can be enabled by settings the value
|
|
to `1`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_rename_tsserver_find_in_strings *g:ale_rename_tsserver_find_in_strings*
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
If enabled, this option will tell tsserver to find and replace text in
|
|
strings when calling |ALERename|. It can be enabled by settings the value to
|
|
`1`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_balloons *g:ale_set_balloons*
|
|
*b:ale_set_balloons*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `has('balloon_eval') && has('gui_running')`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, balloon messages will be displayed for
|
|
problems or hover information if available.
|
|
|
|
Problems nearest to the line the mouse cursor is over will be displayed. If
|
|
there are no problems to show, and one of the linters is an LSP linter
|
|
supporting "Hover" information, per |ale-hover|, then brief information
|
|
about the symbol under the cursor will be displayed in a balloon.
|
|
|
|
Balloons can be enabled for terminal versions of Vim that support balloons,
|
|
but some versions of Vim will produce strange mouse behavior when balloons
|
|
are enabled. To configure balloons for your terminal, you should first
|
|
configure your |ttymouse| setting, and then consider setting
|
|
`g:ale_set_balloons` to `1` before ALE is loaded.
|
|
|
|
`b:ale_set_balloons` can be set to `0` to disable balloons for a buffer.
|
|
Balloons cannot be enabled for a specific buffer when not initially enabled
|
|
globally.
|
|
|
|
Balloons will not be shown when |g:ale_enabled| or |b:ale_enabled| is `0`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_balloons_legacy_echo *g:ale_set_balloons_legacy_echo*
|
|
*b:ale_set_balloons_legacy_echo*
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: undefined
|
|
|
|
If set to `1`, moving your mouse over documents in Vim will make ALE ask
|
|
`tsserver` or `LSP` servers for information about the symbol where the mouse
|
|
cursor is, and print that information into Vim's echo line. This is an
|
|
option for supporting older versions of Vim which do not properly support
|
|
balloons in an asynchronous manner.
|
|
|
|
If your version of Vim supports the |balloon_show| function, then this
|
|
option does nothing meaningful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_highlights *g:ale_set_highlights*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `has('syntax')`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, highlights will be set for problems.
|
|
|
|
ALE will use the following highlight groups for problems:
|
|
|
|
|ALEError| - Items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEWarning| - Items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEInfo.| - Items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|ALEStyleError| - Items with `'type': 'E'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|ALEStyleWarning| - Items with `'type': 'W'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|
|
When |g:ale_set_signs| is set to `0`, the following highlights for entire
|
|
lines will be set.
|
|
|
|
|ALEErrorLine| - All items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEWarningLine| - All items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEInfoLine| - All items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|
|
Vim can only highlight the characters up to the last column in a buffer for
|
|
match highlights, whereas the line highlights when signs are enabled will
|
|
run to the edge of the screen.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_loclist *g:ale_set_loclist*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, the |loclist| will be populated with any
|
|
warnings and errors which are found by ALE. This feature can be used to
|
|
implement jumping between errors through typical use of |lnext| and |lprev|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_quickfix *g:ale_set_quickfix*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, the |quickfix| list will be populated with
|
|
any problems which are found by ALE, instead of the |loclist|. The loclist
|
|
will never be populated when this option is on.
|
|
|
|
Problems from every buffer ALE has checked will be included in the quickfix
|
|
list, which can be checked with |:copen|. Problems will be de-duplicated.
|
|
|
|
This feature should not be used in combination with tools for searching for
|
|
matches and commands like |:cfdo|, as ALE will replace the quickfix list
|
|
pretty frequently. If you wish to use such tools, you should populate the
|
|
loclist instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_set_signs *g:ale_set_signs*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `has('signs')`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, the |sign| column will be populated with
|
|
signs marking where problems appear in the file.
|
|
|
|
ALE will use the following highlight groups for problems:
|
|
|
|
|ALEErrorSign| - Items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEWarningSign| - Items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEInfoSign| - Items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|ALEStyleErrorSign| - Items with `'type': 'E'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|ALEStyleWarningSign| - Items with `'type': 'W'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|
|
In addition to the style of the signs, the style of lines where signs appear
|
|
can be configured with the following highlights:
|
|
|
|
|ALEErrorLine| - All items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEWarningLine| - All items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEInfoLine| - All items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|
|
With Neovim 0.3.2 or higher, ALE can use the `numhl` option to highlight the
|
|
'number' column. It uses the following highlight groups.
|
|
|
|
|ALEErrorSignLineNr| - Items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEWarningSignLineNr| - Items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEInfoSignLineNr| - Items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|ALEStyleErrorSignLineNr| - Items with `'type': 'E'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|ALEStyleWarningSignLineNr| - Items with `'type': 'W'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|
|
To enable line number highlighting |g:ale_sign_highlight_linenrs| must be
|
|
set to `1` before ALE is loaded.
|
|
|
|
The markers for the highlights can be customized with the following options:
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_sign_error|
|
|
|g:ale_sign_warning|
|
|
|g:ale_sign_info|
|
|
|g:ale_sign_style_error|
|
|
|g:ale_sign_style_warning|
|
|
|
|
When multiple problems exist on the same line, the signs will take
|
|
precedence in the order above, from highest to lowest.
|
|
|
|
To limit the number of signs ALE will set, see |g:ale_max_signs|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_priority *g:ale_sign_priority*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `30`
|
|
|
|
From Neovim 0.4.0 and Vim 8.1, ALE can set sign priority to all signs. The
|
|
larger this value is, the higher priority ALE signs have over other plugin
|
|
signs. See |sign-priority| for further details on how priority works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_shell *g:ale_shell*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: not set
|
|
|
|
Override the shell used by ALE for executing commands. ALE uses 'shell' by
|
|
default, but falls back in `/bin/sh` if the default shell looks like `fish`
|
|
or `pwsh`, which are not compatible with all of the commands run by ALE. The
|
|
shell specified with this option will be used even if it might not work in
|
|
all cases.
|
|
|
|
For Windows, ALE uses `cmd` when this option isn't set. Setting this option
|
|
will apply shell escaping to the command string, even on Windows.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Consider setting |g:ale_shell_arguments| if this option is defined.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_shell_arguments *g:ale_shell_arguments*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: not set
|
|
|
|
This option specifies the arguments to use for executing a command with a
|
|
custom shell, per |g:ale_shell|. If this option is not set, 'shellcmdflag'
|
|
will be used instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_column_always *g:ale_sign_column_always*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
By default, the sign gutter will disappear when all warnings and errors have
|
|
been fixed for a file. When this option is set to `1`, the sign column will
|
|
remain open. This can be preferable if you don't want the text in your file
|
|
to move around as you edit a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_error *g:ale_sign_error*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'>>'`
|
|
|
|
The sign for errors in the sign gutter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_info *g:ale_sign_info*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `g:ale_sign_warning`
|
|
|
|
The sign for "info" markers in the sign gutter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_style_error *g:ale_sign_style_error*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `g:ale_sign_error`
|
|
|
|
The sign for style errors in the sign gutter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_style_warning *g:ale_sign_style_warning*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `g:ale_sign_warning`
|
|
|
|
The sign for style warnings in the sign gutter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_offset *g:ale_sign_offset*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1000000`
|
|
|
|
This variable controls offset from which numeric IDs will be generated for
|
|
new signs. Signs cannot share the same ID values, so when two Vim plugins
|
|
set signs at the same time, the IDs have to be configured such that they do
|
|
not conflict with one another. If the IDs used by ALE are found to conflict
|
|
with some other plugin, this offset value can be changed, and hopefully both
|
|
plugins will work together. See |sign-place| for more information on how
|
|
signs are set.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_warning *g:ale_sign_warning*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'--'`
|
|
|
|
The sign for warnings in the sign gutter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_sign_highlight_linenrs *g:ale_sign_highlight_linenrs*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
When set to `1`, this option enables highlighting problems on the 'number'
|
|
column in Vim versions that support `numhl` highlights. This option must be
|
|
configured before ALE is loaded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_update_tagstack *g:ale_update_tagstack*
|
|
*b:ale_update_tagstack*
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
This option can be set to disable updating Vim's |tagstack| automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_type_map *g:ale_type_map*
|
|
*b:ale_type_map*
|
|
Type: |Dictionary|
|
|
Default: `{}`
|
|
|
|
This option can be set re-map problem types for linters. Each key in the
|
|
|Dictionary| should be the name of a linter, and each value must be a
|
|
|Dictionary| mapping problem types from one type to another. The following
|
|
types are supported:
|
|
|
|
`'E'` - `{'type': 'E'}`
|
|
`'ES'` - `{'type': 'E', 'sub_type': 'style'}`
|
|
`'W'` - `{'type': 'W'}`
|
|
`'WS'` - `{'type': 'W', 'sub_type': 'style'}`
|
|
`'I'` - `{'type': 'I'}`
|
|
|
|
For example, if you want to turn flake8 errors into warnings, you can write
|
|
the following: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_type_map = {'flake8': {'ES': 'WS', 'E': 'W'}}
|
|
<
|
|
If you wanted to turn style errors and warnings into regular errors and
|
|
warnings, you can write the following: >
|
|
|
|
let g:ale_type_map = {'flake8': {'ES': 'E', 'WS': 'W'}}
|
|
<
|
|
Type maps can be set per-buffer with `b:ale_type_map`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_use_global_executables *g:ale_use_global_executables*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: not set
|
|
|
|
This option can be set to change the default for all `_use_global` options.
|
|
This option must be set before ALE is loaded, preferably in a vimrc file.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-integrations-local-executables| for more information on those
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_virtualtext_cursor *g:ale_virtualtext_cursor*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `0`
|
|
|
|
This option only has any effect in NeoVim.
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, a message will be shown when a cursor is
|
|
near a warning or error. ALE will attempt to find the warning or error at a
|
|
column nearest to the cursor when the cursor is resting on a line which
|
|
contains a warning or error. This option can be set to `0` to disable this
|
|
behavior.
|
|
|
|
Messages are only displayed after a short delay. See |g:ale_virtualtext_delay|.
|
|
|
|
Messages can be prefixed prefixed with a string. See |g:ale_virtualtext_prefix|.
|
|
|
|
ALE will use the following highlight groups for problems:
|
|
|
|
|ALEVirtualTextError| - Items with `'type': 'E'`
|
|
|ALEVirtualTextWarning| - Items with `'type': 'W'`
|
|
|ALEVirtualTextInfo| - Items with `'type': 'I'`
|
|
|ALEVirtualTextStyleError| - Items with `'type': 'E'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|ALEVirtualTextStyleWarning| - Items with `'type': 'W'` and `'sub_type': 'style'`
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_virtualtext_delay *g:ale_virtualtext_delay*
|
|
b:ale_virtualtext_delay *b:ale_virtualtext_delay*
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `10`
|
|
|
|
Given any integer, this option controls the number of milliseconds before
|
|
ALE will show a message for a problem near the cursor.
|
|
|
|
The value can be increased to decrease the amount of processing ALE will do
|
|
for files displaying a large number of problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_virtualtext_prefix *g:ale_virtualtext_prefix*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'> '`
|
|
|
|
Prefix to be used with |g:ale_virtualtext_cursor|.
|
|
|
|
g:ale_virtualenv_dir_names *g:ale_virtualenv_dir_names*
|
|
b:ale_virtualenv_dir_names *b:ale_virtualenv_dir_names*
|
|
|
|
Type: |List|
|
|
Default: `['.env', '.venv', 'env', 've-py3', 've', 'virtualenv', 'venv']`
|
|
|
|
A list of directory names to be used when searching upwards from Python
|
|
files to discover virtulenv directories with.
|
|
|
|
For directory named `'foo'`, ALE will search for `'foo/bin/activate'`
|
|
(`foo\Scripts\activate\` on Windows) in all directories on and above the
|
|
directory containing the Python file to find virtualenv paths.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_warn_about_trailing_blank_lines *g:ale_warn_about_trailing_blank_lines*
|
|
b:ale_warn_about_trailing_blank_lines *b:ale_warn_about_trailing_blank_lines*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, warnings about trailing blank lines will be
|
|
shown.
|
|
|
|
This option behaves similarly to |g:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace *g:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace*
|
|
b:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace *b:ale_warn_about_trailing_whitespace*
|
|
|
|
Type: |Number|
|
|
Default: `1`
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, warnings relating to trailing whitespace on
|
|
lines will be shown. If warnings are too irritating while editing buffers,
|
|
and you have configured Vim to automatically remove trailing whitespace,
|
|
you can disable these warnings by setting this option to `0`.
|
|
|
|
Not all linters may respect this option. If a linter does not, please file a
|
|
bug report, and it may be possible to add such support.
|
|
|
|
This option may be configured on a per buffer basis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
g:ale_windows_node_executable_path *g:ale_windows_node_executable_path*
|
|
*b:ale_windows_node_executable_path*
|
|
|
|
Type: |String|
|
|
Default: `'node.exe'`
|
|
|
|
This variable is used as the path to the executable to use for executing
|
|
scripts with Node.js on Windows.
|
|
|
|
For Windows, any file with a `.js` file extension needs to be executed with
|
|
the node executable explicitly. Otherwise, Windows could try and open the
|
|
scripts with other applications, like a text editor. Therefore, these
|
|
scripts are executed with whatever executable is configured with this
|
|
setting.

7. Linter/Fixer Options *ale-integration-options*
|
|
|
|
Linter and fixer options are documented below and in individual help files.
|
|
|
|
Every option for programs can be set globally, or individually for each
|
|
buffer. For example, `b:ale_python_flake8_executable` will override any
|
|
values set for `g:ale_python_flake8_executable`.
|
|
|
|
*ale-integrations-local-executables*
|
|
|
|
Some tools will prefer to search for locally-installed executables, unless
|
|
configured otherwise. For example, the `eslint` linter will search for
|
|
various executable paths in `node_modules`. The `flake8` linter will search
|
|
for virtualenv directories.
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to use global executables for those tools, set the relevant
|
|
`_use_global` and `_executable` options for those linters. >
|
|
|
|
" Use the global executable with a special name for eslint.
|
|
let g:ale_javascript_eslint_executable = 'special-eslint'
|
|
let g:ale_javascript_eslint_use_global = 1
|
|
|
|
" Use the global executable with a special name for flake8.
|
|
let g:ale_python_flake8_executable = '/foo/bar/flake8'
|
|
let g:ale_python_flake8_use_global = 1
|
|
<
|
|
|g:ale_use_global_executables| can be set to `1` in your vimrc file to make
|
|
ALE use global executables for all linters by default.
|
|
|
|
The option |g:ale_virtualenv_dir_names| controls the local virtualenv paths
|
|
ALE will use to search for Python executables.

8. Commands/Keybinds *ale-commands*
|
|
|
|
ALEComplete *ALEComplete*
|
|
|
|
Manually trigger LSP autocomplete and show the menu. Works only when called
|
|
from insert mode. >
|
|
|
|
inoremap <silent> <C-Space> <C-\><C-O>:AleComplete<CR>
|
|
<
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_complete)` is defined for this command. >
|
|
|
|
imap <C-Space> <Plug>(ale_complete)
|
|
<
|
|
ALEDocumentation *ALEDocumentation*
|
|
|
|
Similar to the |ALEHover| command, retrieve documentation information for
|
|
the symbol at the cursor. Documentation data will always be shown in a
|
|
preview window, no matter how small the documentation content is.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This command is only available for `tsserver`.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_documentation)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEFindReferences *ALEFindReferences*
|
|
|
|
Find references in the codebase for the symbol under the cursor using the
|
|
enabled LSP linters for the buffer. ALE will display a preview window
|
|
containing the results if some references are found.
|
|
|
|
The window can be navigated using the usual Vim navigation commands. The
|
|
Enter key (`<CR>`) can be used to jump to a referencing location, or the `t`
|
|
key can be used to jump to the location in a new tab.
|
|
|
|
You can jump back to the position you were at before going to a reference of
|
|
something with jump motions like CTRL-O. See |jump-motions|.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_find_references)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
ALEFix *ALEFix*
|
|
|
|
Fix problems with the current buffer. See |ale-fix| for more information.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_fix)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEFixSuggest *ALEFixSuggest*
|
|
|
|
Suggest tools that can be used to fix problems in the current buffer.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-fix| for more information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToDefinition *ALEGoToDefinition*
|
|
|
|
Jump to the definition of a symbol under the cursor using the enabled LSP
|
|
linters for the buffer. ALE will jump to a definition if an LSP server
|
|
provides a location to jump to. Otherwise, ALE will do nothing.
|
|
|
|
You can jump back to the position you were at before going to the definition
|
|
of something with jump motions like CTRL-O. See |jump-motions|.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToDefinitionInTab *ALEGoToDefinitionInTab*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToDefinition|, but opens results in a new tab.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_tab)` is defined for this
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToDefinitionInSplit *ALEGoToDefinitionInSplit*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToDefinition|, but opens results in a new split.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_split)` is defined for this
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToDefinitionInVSplit *ALEGoToDefinitionInVSplit*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToDefinition|, but opens results in a new vertical split.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_vsplit)` is defined for this
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToTypeDefinition *ALEGoToTypeDefinition*
|
|
|
|
This works similar to |ALEGoToDefinition| but instead jumps to the
|
|
definition of a type of a symbol under the cursor. ALE will jump to a
|
|
definition if an LSP server provides a location to jump to. Otherwise, ALE
|
|
will do nothing.
|
|
|
|
You can jump back to the position you were at before going to the definition
|
|
of something with jump motions like CTRL-O. See |jump-motions|.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition)` is defined for this
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInTab *ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInTab*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToTypeDefinition|, but opens results in a new tab.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_tab)` is defined for
|
|
this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInSplit *ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInSplit*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToTypeDefinition|, but opens results in a new split.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_split)` is defined for
|
|
this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInVSplit *ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInVSplit*
|
|
|
|
The same as |ALEGoToTypeDefinition|, but opens results in a new vertical
|
|
split.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_vsplit)` is defined for
|
|
this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEHover *ALEHover*
|
|
|
|
Print brief information about the symbol under the cursor, taken from any
|
|
available LSP linters. There may be a small non-blocking delay before
|
|
information is printed.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: In Vim 8, long messages will be shown in a preview window, as Vim 8
|
|
does not support showing a prompt to press enter to continue for long
|
|
messages from asynchronous callbacks.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_hover)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEOrganizeImports *ALEOrganizeImports*
|
|
|
|
Organize imports using tsserver. Currently not implemented for LSPs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALERename *ALERename*
|
|
|
|
Rename a symbol using TypeScript server or Language Server.
|
|
|
|
The user will be prompted for a new name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALESymbolSearch `<query>` *ALESymbolSearch*
|
|
|
|
Search for symbols in the workspace, taken from any available LSP linters.
|
|
|
|
The arguments provided to this command will be used as a search query for
|
|
finding symbols in the workspace, such as functions, types, etc.
|
|
|
|
*:ALELint*
|
|
ALELint *ALELint*
|
|
|
|
Run ALE once for the current buffer. This command can be used to run ALE
|
|
manually, instead of automatically, if desired.
|
|
|
|
This command will also run linters where `lint_file` is set to `1`, or in
|
|
other words linters which check the file instead of the Vim buffer.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_lint)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEPrevious *ALEPrevious*
|
|
ALEPreviousWrap *ALEPreviousWrap*
|
|
ALENext *ALENext*
|
|
ALENextWrap *ALENextWrap*
|
|
ALEFirst *ALEFirst*
|
|
ALELast *ALELast*
|
|
*ale-navigation-commands*
|
|
|
|
Move between warnings or errors in a buffer. ALE will only navigate between
|
|
the errors or warnings it generated, even if both |g:ale_set_quickfix|
|
|
and |g:ale_set_loclist| are set to `0`.
|
|
|
|
`ALEPrevious` and `ALENext` will stop at the top and bottom of a file, while
|
|
`ALEPreviousWrap` and `ALENextWrap` will wrap around the file to find
|
|
the last or first warning or error in the file, respectively.
|
|
|
|
`ALEPrevious` and `ALENext` take optional flags arguments to custom their
|
|
behaviour :
|
|
`-wrap` enable wrapping around the file
|
|
`-error`, `-warning` and `-info` enable jumping to errors, warnings or infos
|
|
respectively, ignoring anything else. They are mutually exclusive and if
|
|
several are provided the priority is the following: error > warning > info.
|
|
`-style` and `-nostyle` allow you to jump respectively to style error or
|
|
warning and to not style error or warning. They also are mutually
|
|
exclusive and nostyle has priority over style.
|
|
|
|
Flags can be combined to create create custom jumping. Thus you can use
|
|
":ALENext -wrap -error -nosyle" to jump to the next error which is not a
|
|
style error while going back to the beginning of the file if needed.
|
|
|
|
`ALEFirst` goes to the first error or warning in the buffer, while `ALELast`
|
|
goes to the last one.
|
|
|
|
The following |<Plug>| mappings are defined for the commands: >
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous) - ALEPrevious
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous_wrap) - ALEPreviousWrap
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous_error) - ALEPrevious -error
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous_wrap_error) - ALEPrevious -wrap -error
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous_warning) - ALEPrevious -warning
|
|
<Plug>(ale_previous_wrap_warning) - ALEPrevious -wrap -warning
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next) - ALENext
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next_wrap) - ALENextWrap
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next_error) - ALENext -error
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next_wrap_error) - ALENext -wrap -error
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next_warning) - ALENext -warning
|
|
<Plug>(ale_next_wrap_warning) - ALENext -wrap -warning
|
|
<Plug>(ale_first) - ALEFirst
|
|
<Plug>(ale_last) - ALELast
|
|
<
|
|
For example, these commands could be bound to the keys Ctrl + j
|
|
and Ctrl + k: >
|
|
|
|
" Map movement through errors without wrapping.
|
|
nmap <silent> <C-k> <Plug>(ale_previous)
|
|
nmap <silent> <C-j> <Plug>(ale_next)
|
|
" OR map keys to use wrapping.
|
|
nmap <silent> <C-k> <Plug>(ale_previous_wrap)
|
|
nmap <silent> <C-j> <Plug>(ale_next_wrap)
|

ALEToggle *ALEToggle*
|
|
ALEEnable *ALEEnable*
|
|
ALEDisable *ALEDisable*
|
|
ALEToggleBuffer *ALEToggleBuffer*
|
|
ALEEnableBuffer *ALEEnableBuffer*
|
|
ALEDisableBuffer *ALEDisableBuffer*
|
|
|
|
`ALEToggle`, `ALEEnable`, and `ALEDisable` enable or disable ALE linting,
|
|
including all of its autocmd events, loclist items, quickfix items, signs,
|
|
current jobs, etc., globally. Executing any of these commands will change
|
|
the |g:ale_enabled| variable.
|
|
|
|
ALE can be disabled or enabled for only a single buffer with
|
|
`ALEToggleBuffer`, `ALEEnableBuffer`, and `ALEDisableBuffer`. Disabling ALE
|
|
for a buffer will not remove autocmd events, but will prevent ALE from
|
|
checking for problems and reporting problems for whatever buffer the
|
|
`ALEDisableBuffer` or `ALEToggleBuffer` command is executed from. These
|
|
commands can be used for temporarily disabling ALE for a buffer. These
|
|
commands will modify the |b:ale_enabled| variable.
|
|
|
|
ALE linting cannot be enabled for a single buffer when it is disabled
|
|
globally, as disabling ALE globally removes the autocmd events needed to
|
|
perform linting with.
|
|
|
|
The following plug mappings are defined, for conveniently defining keybinds:
|
|
|
|
|ALEToggle| - `<Plug>(ale_toggle)`
|
|
|ALEEnable| - `<Plug>(ale_enable)`
|
|
|ALEDisable| - `<Plug>(ale_disable)`
|
|
|ALEToggleBuffer| - `<Plug>(ale_toggle_buffer)`
|
|
|ALEEnableBuffer| - `<Plug>(ale_enable_buffer)`
|
|
|ALEDisableBuffer| - `<Plug>(ale_disable_buffer)`
|
|
|
|
For removing problems reported by ALE, but leaving ALE enabled, see
|
|
|ALEReset| and |ALEResetBuffer|.
|
|
|
|
*:ALEDetail*
|
|
ALEDetail *ALEDetail*
|
|
|
|
Show the full linter message for the problem nearest to the cursor on the
|
|
given line in the preview window. The preview window can be easily closed
|
|
with the `q` key. If there is no message to show, the window will not be
|
|
opened.
|
|
|
|
If a loclist item has a `detail` key set, the message for that key will be
|
|
preferred over `text`. See |ale-loclist-format|.
|
|
|
|
A plug mapping `<Plug>(ale_detail)` is defined for this command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*:ALEInfo*
|
|
ALEInfo *ALEInfo*
|
|
ALEInfoToClipboard *ALEInfoToClipboard*
|
|
|
|
Print runtime information about ALE, including the values of global and
|
|
buffer-local settings for ALE, the linters that are enabled, the commands
|
|
that have been run, and the output of commands.
|
|
|
|
ALE will log the commands that are run by default. If you wish to disable
|
|
this, set |g:ale_history_enabled| to `0`. Because it could be expensive, ALE
|
|
does not remember the output of recent commands by default. Set
|
|
|g:ale_history_log_output| to `1` to enable logging of output for commands.
|
|
ALE will only log the output captured for parsing problems, etc.
|
|
|
|
The command `:ALEInfoToClipboard` can be used to output ALEInfo directly to
|
|
your clipboard. This might not work on every machine.
|
|
|
|
`:ALEInfoToFile` will write the ALE runtime information to a given filename.
|
|
The filename works just like |:w|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEReset *ALEReset*
|
|
ALEResetBuffer *ALEResetBuffer*
|
|
|
|
`ALEReset` will remove all problems reported by ALE for all buffers.
|
|
`ALEResetBuffer` will remove all problems reported for a single buffer.
|
|
|
|
Either command will leave ALE linting enabled, so ALE will report problems
|
|
when linting is performed again. See |ale-lint| for more information.
|
|
|
|
The following plug mappings are defined, for conveniently defining keybinds:
|
|
|
|
|ALEReset| - `<Plug>(ale_reset)`
|
|
|ALEResetBuffer| - `<Plug>(ale_reset_buffer)`
|
|
|
|
ALE can be disabled globally or for a buffer with |ALEDisable| or
|
|
|ALEDisableBuffer|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEStopAllLSPs *ALEStopAllLSPs*
|
|
|
|
`ALEStopAllLSPs` will close and stop all channels and jobs for all LSP-like
|
|
clients, including tsserver, remove all of the data stored for them, and
|
|
delete all of the problems found for them, updating every linted buffer.
|
|
|
|
This command can be used when LSP clients mess up and need to be restarted.

|
9. API *ale-api*
|
|
|
|
ALE offers a number of functions for running linters or fixers, or defining
|
|
them. The following functions are part of the publicly documented part of that
|
|
API, and should be expected to continue to work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#Env(variable_name, value) *ale#Env()*
|
|
|
|
Given a variable name and a string value, produce a string for including in
|
|
a command for setting environment variables. This function can be used for
|
|
building a command like so. >
|
|
|
|
:echo string(ale#Env('VAR', 'some value') . 'command')
|
|
'VAR=''some value'' command' # On Linux or Mac OSX
|
|
'set VAR="some value" && command' # On Windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#Has(feature) *ale#Has()*
|
|
|
|
Return `1` if ALE supports a given feature, like |has()| for Vim features.
|
|
|
|
ALE versions can be checked with version strings in the format
|
|
`ale#Has('ale-x.y.z')`, such as `ale#Has('ale-2.4.0')`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#Pad(string) *ale#Pad()*
|
|
|
|
Given a string or any |empty()| value, return either the string prefixed
|
|
with a single space, or an empty string. This function can be used to build
|
|
parts of a command from variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#Queue(delay, [linting_flag, buffer_number]) *ale#Queue()*
|
|
|
|
Run linters for the current buffer, based on the filetype of the buffer,
|
|
with a given `delay`. A `delay` of `0` will run the linters immediately.
|
|
The linters will always be run in the background. Calling this function
|
|
again from the same buffer
|
|
|
|
An optional `linting_flag` argument can be given. If `linting_flag`
|
|
is `'lint_file'`, then linters where the `lint_file` option is set to `1` will be
|
|
run. Linters with `lint_file` set to `1` are not run by default.
|
|
|
|
An optional `buffer_number` argument can be given for specifying the buffer
|
|
to check. The active buffer (`bufnr('')`) will be checked by default.
|
|
|
|
*ale-cool-down*
|
|
If an exception is thrown when queuing/running ALE linters, ALE will enter
|
|
a cool down period where it will stop checking anything for a short period
|
|
of time. This is to prevent ALE from seriously annoying users if a linter
|
|
is broken, or when developing ALE itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#CreateDirectory(buffer) *ale#command#CreateDirectory()*
|
|
|
|
Create a new temporary directory with a unique name, and manage that
|
|
directory with |ale#command#ManageDirectory()|, so it will be removed as soon
|
|
as possible.
|
|
|
|
It is advised to only call this function from a callback function for
|
|
returning a linter command to run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#CreateFile(buffer) *ale#command#CreateFile()*
|
|
|
|
Create a new temporary file with a unique name, and manage that file with
|
|
|ale#command#ManageFile()|, so it will be removed as soon as possible.
|
|
|
|
It is advised to only call this function from a callback function for
|
|
returning a linter command to run.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#Run(buffer, command, callback, [options]) *ale#command#Run()*
|
|
|
|
Start running a job in the background, and pass the results to the given
|
|
callback later.
|
|
|
|
This function can be used for computing the results of ALE linter or fixer
|
|
functions asynchronously with jobs. `buffer` must match the buffer being
|
|
linted or fixed, `command` must be a |String| for a shell command to
|
|
execute, `callback` must be defined as a |Funcref| to call later with the
|
|
results, and an optional |Dictionary| of `options` can be provided.
|
|
|
|
The `callback` will receive the arguments `(buffer, output, metadata)`,
|
|
where the `buffer` will match the buffer given to the function, the `output`
|
|
will be a `List` of lines of output from the job that was run, and the
|
|
`metadata` will be a |Dictionary| with additional information about the job
|
|
that was run, including:
|
|
|
|
`exit_code` - A |Number| with the exit code for the program that was run.
|
|
|
|
The result of this function is either a special |Dictionary| ALE will use
|
|
for waiting for the command to finish, or `0` if the job is not started. The
|
|
The return value of the `callback` will be used as the eventual result for
|
|
whatever value is being given to ALE. For example: >
|
|
|
|
function! s:GetCommand(buffer, output, meta) abort
|
|
" Do something with a:output here, from the foo command.
|
|
|
|
" This is used as the command to run for linting.
|
|
return 'final command'
|
|
endfunction
|
|
|
|
" ...
|
|
|
|
'command': {b -> ale#command#Run(b, 'foo', function('s:GetCommand'))}
|
|
<
|
|
The result of a callback can also be the result of another call to this
|
|
function, so that several commands can be arbitrarily chained together. For
|
|
example: >
|
|
|
|
function! s:GetAnotherCommand(buffer, output, meta) abort
|
|
" We can finally return this command.
|
|
return 'last command'
|
|
endfunction
|
|
|
|
function! s:GetCommand(buffer, output, meta) abort
|
|
" We can return another deferred result.
|
|
return ale#command#Run(
|
|
\ a:buffer,
|
|
\ 'second command',
|
|
\ function('s:GetAnotherCommand')
|
|
\)
|
|
endfunction
|
|
|
|
" ...
|
|
|
|
'command': {b -> ale#command#Run(b, 'foo', function('s:GetCommand'))}
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
The following `options` can be provided.
|
|
|
|
`output_stream` - Either `'stdout'`, `'stderr'`, `'both'`, or `'none`' for
|
|
selecting which output streams to read lines from.
|
|
|
|
The default is `'stdout'`
|
|
|
|
`executable` - An executable for formatting into `%e` in the command.
|
|
If this option is not provided, formatting commands with
|
|
`%e` will not work.
|
|
|
|
`read_buffer` - If set to `1`, the buffer will be piped into the
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
The default is `0`.
|
|
|
|
`input` - When creating temporary files with `%t` or piping text
|
|
into a command `input` can be set to a |List| of text to
|
|
use instead of the buffer's text.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#EscapeCommandPart(command_part) *ale#command#EscapeCommandPart()*
|
|
|
|
Given a |String|, return a |String| with all `%` characters replaced with
|
|
`%%` instead. This function can be used to escape strings which are
|
|
dynamically generated for commands before handing them over to ALE,
|
|
so that ALE doesn't treat any strings with `%` formatting sequences
|
|
specially.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#ManageDirectory(buffer, directory) *ale#command#ManageDirectory()*
|
|
|
|
Like |ale#command#ManageFile()|, but directories and all of their contents
|
|
will be deleted, akin to `rm -rf directory`, which could lead to loss of
|
|
data if mistakes are made. This command will also delete any temporary
|
|
filenames given to it.
|
|
|
|
It is advised to use |ale#command#ManageFile()| instead for deleting single
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#command#ManageFile(buffer, filename) *ale#command#ManageFile()*
|
|
|
|
Given a buffer number for a buffer currently running some linting or fixing
|
|
tasks and a filename, register a filename with ALE for automatic deletion
|
|
after linting or fixing is complete, or when Vim exits.
|
|
|
|
If Vim exits suddenly, ALE will try its best to remove temporary files, but
|
|
ALE cannot guarantee with absolute certainty that the files will be removed.
|
|
It is advised to create temporary files in the operating system's managed
|
|
temporary file directory, such as with |tempname()|.
|
|
|
|
Directory names should not be given to this function. ALE will only delete
|
|
files and symlinks given to this function. This is to prevent entire
|
|
directories from being accidentally deleted, say in cases of writing
|
|
`dir . '/' . filename` where `filename` is actually `''`, etc. ALE instead
|
|
manages directories separately with the |ale#command#ManageDirectory| function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#completion#OmniFunc(findstart, base) *ale#completion#OmniFunc()*
|
|
|
|
A completion function to use with 'omnifunc'.
|
|
|
|
See |ale-completion|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#engine#GetLoclist(buffer) *ale#engine#GetLoclist()*
|
|
|
|
Given a buffer number, this function will return the list of problems
|
|
reported by ALE for a given buffer in the format accepted by |setqflist()|.
|
|
|
|
A reference to the buffer's list of problems will be returned. The list must
|
|
be copied before applying |map()| or |filter()|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#engine#IsCheckingBuffer(buffer) *ale#engine#IsCheckingBuffer()*
|
|
|
|
Given a buffer number, returns `1` when ALE is busy checking that buffer.
|
|
|
|
This function can be used for status lines, tab names, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#fix#registry#Add(name, func, filetypes, desc, [aliases])
|
|
*ale#fix#registry#Add()*
|
|
|
|
Given a |String| `name` for a name to add to the registry, a |String| `func`
|
|
for a function name, a |List| `filetypes` for a list of filetypes to
|
|
set for suggestions, and a |String| `desc` for a short description of
|
|
the fixer, register a fixer in the registry.
|
|
|
|
The `name` can then be used for |g:ale_fixers| in place of the function
|
|
name, and suggested for fixing files.
|
|
|
|
An optional |List| of |String|s for aliases can be passed as the `aliases`
|
|
argument. These aliases can also be used for looking up a fixer function.
|
|
ALE will search for fixers in the registry first by `name`, then by their
|
|
`aliases`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#linter#Define(filetype, linter) *ale#linter#Define()*
|
|
|
|
Given a |String| for a filetype and a |Dictionary| Describing a linter
|
|
configuration, add a linter for the given filetype. The dictionaries each
|
|
offer the following options:
|
|
|
|
`name` The name of the linter. These names will be used by
|
|
|g:ale_linters| option for enabling/disabling
|
|
particular linters.
|
|
|
|
This argument is required.
|
|
|
|
`callback` A |String| or |Funcref| for a callback function
|
|
accepting two arguments (buffer, lines), for a
|
|
buffer number the output is for, and the lines of
|
|
output from a linter.
|
|
|
|
This callback function should return a |List| of
|
|
|Dictionary| objects in the format accepted by
|
|
|setqflist()|. The |List| will be sorted by line and
|
|
then column order so it can be searched with a binary
|
|
search by in future before being passed on to the
|
|
|loclist|, etc.
|
|
|
|
This argument is required, unless the linter is an
|
|
LSP linter. In which case, this argument must not be
|
|
defined, as LSP linters handle diagnostics
|
|
automatically. See |ale-lsp-linters|.
|
|
|
|
If the function named does not exist, including if
|
|
the function is later deleted, ALE will behave as if
|
|
the callback returned an empty list.
|
|
|
|
The keys for each item in the List will be handled in
|
|
the following manner:
|
|
*ale-loclist-format*
|
|
`text` - This error message is required.
|
|
`detail` - An optional, more descriptive message.
|
|
This message can be displayed with the |ALEDetail|
|
|
command instead of the message for `text`, if set.
|
|
`lnum` - The line number is required. Any strings
|
|
will be automatically converted to numbers by
|
|
using `str2nr()`.
|
|
|
|
Line 0 will be moved to line 1, and lines beyond
|
|
the end of the file will be moved to the end.
|
|
`col` - The column number is optional and will
|
|
default to `0`. Any strings will be automatically
|
|
converted to number using `str2nr()`.
|
|
`end_col` - An optional end column number.
|
|
This key can be set to specify the column problems
|
|
end on, for improved highlighting.
|
|
`end_lnum` - An optional end line number.
|
|
This key can set along with `end_col` for
|
|
highlighting multi-line problems.
|
|
`bufnr` - This key represents the buffer number the
|
|
problems are for. This value will default to
|
|
the buffer number being checked.
|
|
|
|
The `filename` key can be set instead of this key,
|
|
and then the eventual `bufnr` value in the final
|
|
list will either represent the number for an open
|
|
buffer or `-1` for a file not open in any buffer.
|
|
`filename` - An optional filename for the file the
|
|
problems are for. This should be an absolute path to
|
|
a file.
|
|
|
|
Problems for files which have not yet been opened
|
|
will be set in those files after they are opened
|
|
and have been checked at least once.
|
|
|
|
Temporary files in directories used for Vim
|
|
temporary files with `tempname()` will be assumed
|
|
to be the buffer being checked, unless the `bufnr`
|
|
key is also set with a valid number for some other
|
|
buffer.
|
|
`vcol` - Defaults to `0`.
|
|
|
|
If set to `1`, ALE will convert virtual column
|
|
positions for `col` and `end_col` to byte column
|
|
positions. If the buffer is changed in-between
|
|
checking it and displaying the results, the
|
|
calculated byte column positions will probably be
|
|
wrong.
|
|
`type` - Defaults to `'E'`.
|
|
`nr` - Defaults to `-1`.
|
|
|
|
Numeric error code. If `nr` is not `-1`, `code`
|
|
likely should contain the string representation of
|
|
the same value.
|
|
`code` - No default; may be unset.
|
|
|
|
Human-readable |String| error code.
|
|
|
|
`executable` A |String| naming the executable itself which
|
|
will be run, or a |Funcref| for a function to call
|
|
for computing the executable, accepting a buffer
|
|
number.
|
|
|
|
The result can be computed with |ale#command#Run()|.
|
|
|
|
This value will be used to check if the program
|
|
requested is installed or not.
|
|
|
|
If an `executable` is not defined, the command will
|
|
be run without checking if a program is executable
|
|
first. Defining an executable path is recommended to
|
|
avoid starting too many processes.
|
|
|
|
`command` A |String| for a command to run asynchronously, or a
|
|
|Funcref| for a function to call for computing the
|
|
command, accepting a buffer number.
|
|
|
|
The result can be computed with |ale#command#Run()|.
|
|
|
|
This command will be fed the lines from the buffer to
|
|
check, and will produce the lines of output given to
|
|
the `callback`.
|
|
|
|
`output_stream` A |String| for the output stream the lines of output
|
|
should be read from for the command which is run. The
|
|
accepted values are `'stdout'`, `'stderr'`, and
|
|
`'both'`. This argument defaults to `'stdout'`. This
|
|
argument can be set for linter programs which output
|
|
their errors and warnings to the stderr stream
|
|
instead of stdout. The option `'both'` will read
|
|
from both stder and stdout at the same time.
|
|
|
|
`read_buffer` A |Number| (`0` or `1`) indicating whether a command
|
|
should read the Vim buffer as input via stdin. This
|
|
option is set to `1` by default, and can be disabled
|
|
if a command manually reads from a temporary file
|
|
instead, etc.
|
|
|
|
*ale-lint-file*
|
|
`lint_file` A |Number| (`0` or `1`) indicating whether a command
|
|
should read the file instead of the Vim buffer. This
|
|
option can be used for linters which must check the
|
|
file on disk, and which cannot check a Vim buffer
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
Linters set with this option will not be run as a
|
|
user types, per |g:ale_lint_on_text_changed|. Linters
|
|
will instead be run only when events occur against
|
|
the file on disk, including |g:ale_lint_on_enter|
|
|
and |g:ale_lint_on_save|. Linters with this option
|
|
set to `1` will also be run when linters are run
|
|
manually, per |ALELintPost-autocmd|.
|
|
|
|
When this option is set to `1`, `read_buffer` will
|
|
be set automatically to `0`. The two options cannot
|
|
be used together.
|
|
|
|
*ale-lsp-linters*
|
|
`lsp` A |String| for defining LSP (Language Server Protocol)
|
|
linters.
|
|
|
|
This argument may be omitted or `''` when a linter
|
|
does not represent an LSP linter.
|
|
|
|
When this argument is set to `'stdio'`, then the
|
|
linter will be defined as an LSP linter which keeps a
|
|
process for a language server running, and
|
|
communicates with it directly via a |channel|.
|
|
`executable` and `command` must be set.
|
|
|
|
When this argument is set to `'socket'`, then the
|
|
linter will be defined as an LSP linter via a TCP
|
|
socket connection. `address` must be set.
|
|
|
|
ALE will not start a server automatically.
|
|
|
|
When this argument is not empty `project_root` must
|
|
be defined.
|
|
|
|
`language` can be defined to describe the language
|
|
for a file. The filetype will be used as the language
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
LSP linters handle diagnostics automatically, so
|
|
the `callback` argument must not be defined.
|
|
|
|
An optional `completion_filter` callback may be
|
|
defined for filtering completion results.
|
|
|
|
`initialization_options` may be defined to pass
|
|
initialization options to the LSP.
|
|
|
|
`lsp_config` may be defined to pass configuration
|
|
settings to the LSP.
|
|
|
|
`address` A |String| representing an address to connect to,
|
|
or a |Funcref| accepting a buffer number and
|
|
returning the |String|.
|
|
|
|
The result can be computed with |ale#command#Run()|.
|
|
|
|
This argument must only be set if the `lsp` argument
|
|
is set to `'socket'`.
|
|
|
|
`project_root` A |String| representing a path to the project for
|
|
the file being checked with the language server, or
|
|
a |Funcref| accepting a buffer number and returning
|
|
the |String|.
|
|
|
|
If an empty string is returned, the file will not be
|
|
checked at all.
|
|
|
|
This argument must only be set if the `lsp` argument
|
|
is also set to a non-empty string.
|
|
|
|
`language` A |String| representing the name of the language
|
|
being checked, or a |Funcref| accepting a buffer
|
|
number and returning the |String|. This string will
|
|
be sent to the LSP to tell it what type of language
|
|
is being checked.
|
|
|
|
If a language isn't provided, the language will
|
|
default to the value of the filetype given to
|
|
|ale#linter#Define|.
|
|
|
|
`completion_filter` A |String| or |Funcref| for a callback function
|
|
accepting a buffer number and a completion item.
|
|
|
|
The completion item will be a |Dictionary| following
|
|
the Language Server Protocol `CompletionItem`
|
|
interface as described in the specification,
|
|
available online here:
|
|
https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol
|
|
|
|
`aliases` A |List| of aliases for the linter name.
|
|
|
|
This argument can be set with alternative names for
|
|
selecting the linter with |g:ale_linters|. This
|
|
setting can make it easier to guess the linter name
|
|
by offering a few alternatives.
|
|
|
|
`initialization_options` A |Dictionary| of initialization options for LSPs,
|
|
or a |Funcref| for a callback function accepting
|
|
a buffer number and returning the |Dictionary|.
|
|
|
|
This will be fed (as JSON) to the LSP in the
|
|
initialize command.
|
|
|
|
`lsp_config` A |Dictionary| for configuring a language server,
|
|
or a |Funcref| for a callback function accepting
|
|
a buffer number and returning the |Dictionary|.
|
|
|
|
This will be fed (as JSON) to the LSP in the
|
|
workspace/didChangeConfiguration command.
|
|
|
|
If temporary files or directories are created for commands run with
|
|
`command`, then these temporary files or directories can be managed by ALE,
|
|
for automatic deletion. See |ale#command#ManageFile()| and
|
|
|ale#command#ManageDirectory| for more information.
|
|
|
|
*ale-command-format-strings*
|
|
|
|
All command strings will be formatted for special character sequences.
|
|
Any substring `%s` will be replaced with the full path to the current file
|
|
being edited. This format option can be used to pass the exact filename
|
|
being edited to a program.
|
|
|
|
For example: >
|
|
'command': 'eslint -f unix --stdin --stdin-filename %s'
|
|
<
|
|
Any substring `%t` will be replaced with a path to a temporary file. Merely
|
|
adding `%t` will cause ALE to create a temporary file containing the
|
|
contents of the buffer being checked. All occurrences of `%t` in command
|
|
strings will reference the one temporary file. The temporary file will be
|
|
created inside a temporary directory, and the entire temporary directory
|
|
will be automatically deleted, following the behaviour of
|
|
|ale#command#ManageDirectory|. This option can be used for some linters which
|
|
do not support reading from stdin.
|
|
|
|
For example: >
|
|
'command': 'ghc -fno-code -v0 %t',
|
|
<
|
|
Any substring `%e` will be replaced with the escaped executable supplied
|
|
with `executable`. This provides a convenient way to define a command string
|
|
which needs to include a dynamic executable name, but which is otherwise
|
|
static.
|
|
|
|
For example: >
|
|
'command': '%e --some-argument',
|
|
<
|
|
The character sequence `%%` can be used to emit a literal `%` into a
|
|
command, so literal character sequences `%s` and `%t` can be escaped by
|
|
using `%%s` and `%%t` instead, etc.
|
|
|
|
If a callback for a command generates part of a command string which might
|
|
possibly contain `%%`, `%s`, `%t`, or `%e`, where the special formatting
|
|
behavior is not desired, the |ale#command#EscapeCommandPart()| function can
|
|
be used to replace those characters to avoid formatting issues.

Linters for ALE will be loaded by searching |runtimepath| in the following
|
|
format: >
|
|
|
|
ale_linters/<filetype>/<linter_name>.vim
|
|
<
|
|
Any linters which exist anywhere in |runtimepath| with that directory
|
|
structure will be automatically loaded for the matching |filetype|. Filetypes
|
|
containing `.` characters will be split into individual parts, and files
|
|
will be loaded for each filetype between the `.` characters.
|
|
|
|
Linters can be defined from vimrc and other files as long as this function
|
|
is loaded first. For example, the following code will define a Hello World
|
|
linter in vimrc in Vim 8: >
|
|
|
|
" Plugins have to be loaded first.
|
|
" If you are using a plugin manager, run that first.
|
|
packloadall
|
|
|
|
call ale#linter#Define('vim', {
|
|
\ 'name': 'echo-test',
|
|
\ 'executable': 'echo',
|
|
\ 'command': 'echo hello world',
|
|
\ 'callback': {buffer, lines -> map(lines, '{"text": v:val, "lnum": 1}')},
|
|
\})
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
ale#linter#Get(filetype) *ale#linter#Get()*
|
|
|
|
Return all of linters configured for a given filetype as a |List| of
|
|
|Dictionary| values in the format specified by |ale#linter#Define()|.
|
|
|
|
Filetypes may be dot-separated to invoke linters for multiple filetypes:
|
|
for instance, the filetype `javascript.jsx` will return linters for both the
|
|
`javascript` and `jsx` filetype.
|
|
|
|
Aliases may be defined in as described in |g:ale_linter_aliases|. Aliases
|
|
are applied after dot-separated filetypes are broken up into their
|
|
components.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#linter#PreventLoading(filetype) *ale#linter#PreventLoading()*
|
|
|
|
Given a `filetype`, prevent any more linters from being loaded from
|
|
|runtimepath| for that filetype. This function can be called from vimrc or
|
|
similar to prevent ALE from loading linters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#lsp_linter#SendRequest(buffer, linter_name, message, [Handler])
|
|
*ale#lsp_linter#SendRequest()*
|
|
|
|
Send a custom request to an LSP linter. The arguments are defined as
|
|
follows:
|
|
|
|
`buffer` A valid buffer number.
|
|
|
|
`linter_name` A |String| identifying an LSP linter that is available and
|
|
enabled for the |filetype| of `buffer`.
|
|
|
|
`message` A |List| in the form `[is_notification, method, parameters]`,
|
|
containing three elements:
|
|
`is_notification` - an |Integer| that has value 1 if the
|
|
request is a notification, 0 otherwise;
|
|
`method` - a |String|, identifying an LSP method supported
|
|
by `linter`;
|
|
`parameters` - a |dictionary| of LSP parameters that are
|
|
applicable to `method`.
|
|
|
|
`Handler` Optional argument, meaningful only when `message[0]` is 0.
|
|
A |Funcref| that is called when a response to the request is
|
|
received, and takes as unique argument a dictionary
|
|
representing the response obtained from the server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#other_source#ShowResults(buffer, linter_name, loclist)
|
|
*ale#other_source#ShowResults()*
|
|
|
|
Show results from another source of information.
|
|
|
|
`buffer` must be a valid buffer number, and `linter_name` must be a unique
|
|
name for identifying another source of information. The `loclist` given
|
|
where the problems in a buffer are, and should be provided in the format ALE
|
|
uses for regular linter results. See |ale-loclist-format|.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#other_source#StartChecking(buffer, linter_name)
|
|
*ale#other_source#StartChecking()*
|
|
|
|
Tell ALE that another source of information has started checking a buffer.
|
|
|
|
`buffer` must be a valid buffer number, and `linter_name` must be a unique
|
|
name for identifying another source of information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#statusline#Count(buffer) *ale#statusline#Count()*
|
|
|
|
Given the number of a buffer which may have problems, return a |Dictionary|
|
|
containing information about the number of problems detected by ALE. The
|
|
following keys are supported:
|
|
|
|
`error` -> The number of problems with type `E` and `sub_type != 'style'`
|
|
`warning` -> The number of problems with type `W` and `sub_type != 'style'`
|
|
`info` -> The number of problems with type `I`
|
|
`style_error` -> The number of problems with type `E` and `sub_type == 'style'`
|
|
`style_warning` -> The number of problems with type `W` and `sub_type == 'style'`
|
|
`total` -> The total number of problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ale#statusline#FirstProblem(buffer, type) *ale#statusline#FirstProblem()*
|
|
|
|
Returns a copy of the first entry in the `loclist` that matches the supplied
|
|
buffer number and problem type. If there is no such entry, an empty dictionary
|
|
is returned.
|
|
Problem type should be one of the strings listed below:
|
|
|
|
`error` -> Returns the first `loclist` item with type `E` and
|
|
`sub_type != 'style'`
|
|
`warning` -> First item with type `W` and `sub_type != 'style'`
|
|
`info` -> First item with type `I`
|
|
`style_error` -> First item with type `E` and `sub_type == 'style'`
|
|
`style_warning` -> First item with type `W` and `sub_type == 'style'`
|
|
|
|
|
|
b:ale_linted *b:ale_linted*
|
|
|
|
`b:ale_linted` is set to the number of times a buffer has been checked by
|
|
ALE after all linters for one lint cycle have finished checking a buffer.
|
|
This variable may not be defined until ALE first checks a buffer, so it
|
|
should be accessed with |get()| or |getbufvar()|. For example: >
|
|
|
|
" Print a message indicating how many times ALE has checked this buffer.
|
|
echo 'ALE has checked this buffer ' . get(b:, 'ale_linted') . ' time(s).'
|
|
" Print 'checked' using getbufvar() if a buffer has been checked.
|
|
echo getbufvar(bufnr(''), 'ale_linted', 0) > 0 ? 'checked' : 'not checked'
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
g:ale_want_results_buffer *g:ale_want_results_buffer*
|
|
|
|
`g:ale_want_results_buffer` is set to the number of the buffer being checked
|
|
when the |ALEWantResults| event is signaled. This variable should be read to
|
|
figure out which buffer other sources should lint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALELintPre *ALELintPre-autocmd*
|
|
*ALELintPre*
|
|
ALELintPost *ALELintPost-autocmd*
|
|
*ALELintPost*
|
|
ALEFixPre *ALEFixPre-autocmd*
|
|
*ALEFixPre*
|
|
ALEFixPost *ALEFixPost-autocmd*
|
|
*ALEFixPost*
|
|
|
|
These |User| autocommands are triggered before and after every lint or fix
|
|
cycle. They can be used to update statuslines, send notifications, etc.
|
|
The autocmd commands are run with |:silent|, so |:unsilent| is required for
|
|
echoing messges.
|
|
|
|
For example to change the color of the statusline while the linter is
|
|
running:
|
|
>
|
|
augroup ALEProgress
|
|
autocmd!
|
|
autocmd User ALELintPre hi Statusline ctermfg=darkgrey
|
|
autocmd User ALELintPost hi Statusline ctermfg=NONE
|
|
augroup END
|
|
<
|
|
Or to display the progress in the statusline:
|
|
>
|
|
let s:ale_running = 0
|
|
let l:stl .= '%{s:ale_running ? "[linting]" : ""}'
|
|
augroup ALEProgress
|
|
autocmd!
|
|
autocmd User ALELintPre let s:ale_running = 1 | redrawstatus
|
|
autocmd User ALELintPost let s:ale_running = 0 | redrawstatus
|
|
augroup END
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
ALEJobStarted *ALEJobStarted-autocmd*
|
|
*ALEJobStarted*
|
|
|
|
This |User| autocommand is triggered immediately after a job is successfully
|
|
run. This provides better accuracy for checking linter status with
|
|
|ale#engine#IsCheckingBuffer()| over |ALELintPre-autocmd|, which is actually
|
|
triggered before any linters are executed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ALEWantResults *ALEWantResults-autocmd*
|
|
*ALEWantResults*
|
|
|
|
This |User| autocommand is triggered before ALE begins a lint cycle. Another
|
|
source can respond by calling |ale#other_source#StartChecking()|, and
|
|
|ALELintPre| will be signaled thereafter, to allow other plugins to know
|
|
that another source is checking the buffer.
|
|
|
|
|g:ale_want_results_buffer| will be set to the number for a buffer being
|
|
checked when the event is signaled, and deleted after the event is done.
|
|
This variable should be read to know which buffer to check.
|
|
|
|
Other plugins can use this event to start checking buffers when ALE events
|
|
for checking buffers are triggered.
