Configuration
To get chekov to work with cloudformation files (rather than general yaml
files) we must set the buffer |filetype| to `yaml.cloudformation`. This
causes ALE to lint the file with linters configured for cloudformation and
YAML files.
One option is to put the following in `ftdetect/cloudformation.vim`: >
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.template.yaml set filetype=yaml.cloudformation
This will get both cloudformation and yaml linters to work on any file with
`.template.yaml` extension.
Another option is to check for the presence of 'AWSTemplateFormatVersion' in
the yaml file: >
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.yaml,*.yml if search('AWSTemplateFormatVersion', 'nw') | set filetype=yaml.cloudformation | endif
