Newer versions of pylint will now check your code as you type. Older
versions will still only check the file on disk.

Add an `ALECompletePost` event along with everything needed to make it
useful for its primary purpose: fixing code after inserting completions.
* `ALEFix` can now be called with a bang (`!`) to suppress errors.
* A new `ALELintStop` command lets you stop linting, and start it later.
A new command, `:ALEImport`, has been added, which lets you import words
at your cursor if a completion provider can provide a completion for
that word which includes some additional text changes.

Option `per-file-ignores` was introduced in flake8 version 3.7.0.
It allows to ignore specific errors in specific files using glob syntax.
For example `per-file-ignores = src/generated/*.py:F401` will
ignore `F401` error in all python files in `src/generated`.
Thus ale has to run flake8 from project root where .flake8 config
is placed otherwise glob won't match linted file.
`lint_file` can now be computed dynamically with a callback function,
which can return a deferred result, as per `ale#command#Run`. This
allows linters to dynamically switch between checking files on disk,
or checking code on the fly.
Some tests have been fixed on Windows.
Prettier does not use `.prettierignore` unless the current directory is the root where the `.prettierignore` file resides.
* Update Prettier tests
* Look for prettierignore to determine project root
ALE now converts paths from compile_commands.json files into absolute
paths and prefers matching against absolute file and directory names for
determining which flags to use for files. As a result, parsing
compile_commands.json to determine flags should work for a lot more C
and C++ projects.
ALE was incorrectly detecting completion results from servers such as
rust-analyzer as wanting to add import lines when additionalTextEdits
was present, but empty.
Now ALE only filters out completion results if the autoimport setting is
off, and one of the additionalTextEdits starts on some line other than
the current line. If any additionalTextEdits happen to be identical to
the change from completion anyway, ALE will skip them.
Users can easily be confused when they set some options for a C or C++
compiler, and another compiler is run with different options, which
still reports errors. To remedy this, the existing `gcc` and `clang`
linters have been replaced with a `cc` linter that will run either
compiler.
This is a breaking change for ALE v3.0.0.
Certain tests could break if you ran them separately from other tests.
They have been patched.
`run-tests` now has a `--fast` option which runs tests with only the
fastest Vim version ALE tests with, and the custom checks.
* Restore old behavior of ALEFix command for Rubocop
Since RuboCop 0.60 ALEFix command stopped to fix all found offenses. This change restores the
previous behavior by allowing rubocop to fix all detected offenses.
* Fix tests
* Allow to configure auto-correct option for Rubocop
The options for parsing `make -n` and `compile_commands.json` flags
are now enabled by default, so people can start getting better flags
for their files by default.
`compile_commands.json` flags are now preferred over `make -n` results,
to make the options work better by default.
* fix cppcheck for 1.89+, and add column support
In cppcheck 1.89 the output changed to be more like GCC. This commit
forces any version of cppcheck to output in that same format. This also
allows for ALE to pick up the linter's column information
* Add parameters to tests. Vader passes.
* Fix c cppcheck for v1.89
* Added hdl_checker support
* Added hdl_checker tests
HDL Checker searches for files when no config file is found, which could lead to very long searches when the user is not really on a project setting
* Split FindNearestExecutable from FindExecutable
The path searching in ale#node#FindExecutable() will be useful for
eslint. Refactor it into a separate function so it can be used without
regard for the state of the _use_global and _executable variables.

* eslint: Set project root from local executable
Using the nearest directory with node_modules does not work correctly
for nested projects where the eslint dependencies are in the outer
project. For example:
https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/issues/3143#issuecomment-652452362
Adopt the behavior of SublimeLinter, which runs from project_root
determined by the presence of the eslint executable in node_modules/.bin
(or eslint in dependencies/devDependencies of package.json, which we can
add later as necessary). See [NodeLinter#find_local_executable].

It was returning 0 when it should be returning an empty string.

Since version 4.032 (04/2020) verilator linter messages also contain the

To stay compatible with old versions of the tool, the column number is
optional in the researched pattern regular expression.

Default navigation for commands that jump to new locations has been
implemented with the `ale_default_navigation` variable, and all commands
that jump to locations now support `-tab`, `-split`, or `-vsplit`
arguments for overriding the default navigation behavior.
Windows may insert carriage return line endings, which ALE does not handle
well. These characters should not be displayed.
Adds a line to remove these characters for all messages.
ALE appends flags from {c,cpp}_{clang,gcc}_options after those found by
parsing compile_commands.json or Makefile output. If -std=* flags are
present in both the ALE flags and parsed flags, the last one present
(i.e., ALE's -std=* flag) will determine the mode the compiler works in.
This can result in errors showing up in vim but not in the actual build
or vice-versa.
For example, say you have foo.cpp:
#include <type_traits>
int main() {
return std::is_same_v<float, int>;
}
If cpp_clang_options contains -std=c++17 and -std=c++14 is parsed from
compile_commands.json, then ALE would end up running something like:
clang++ -S -x c++ -fsyntax-only -std=c++14 -std=c++17 - < foo.cpp
This would result in no errors showing up in Vim, but the actual build
would fail with:
<stdin>:3:14: error: no template named 'is_same_v' in namespace 'std'; did you mean 'is_same'?
return std::is_same_v<float, int>;
~~~~~^~~~~~~~~
is_same
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/../include/c++/v1/type_traits:872:61: note: 'is_same' declared here
template <class _Tp, class _Up> struct _LIBCPP_TEMPLATE_VIS is_same : public false_type {};
^
<stdin>:3:35: error: expected '(' for function-style cast or type construction
return std::is_same_v<float, int>;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^
2 errors generated.
as the actual build would not have the -std=c++17 flag added by ALE.
If cpp_clang_options contains -std=c++14 and -std=c++17 is parsed from
compile_commands.json, then the opposite problem would occur. ALE would
end up running something like:
clang++ -S -x c++ -fsyntax-only -std=c++17 -std=c++14 - < foo.cpp
and would show an error on line 3 of foo.cpp:
[clang] No template named 'is_same_v' in namespace 'std'; did you mean 'is_same'? (fix available)
The actual build, on the other hand, would succeed without any
complaints.
Removing -std=* from ALE's flags if it is already present in the parsed
flags ensures that the wrong -std=* flag is not used.
An alternative would have been to switch the order in which parsed flags
and ALE flags were concatenated when producing the command to execute,
but that could prevent a user from intentionally using ALE's flags to
override some other flags, e.g. -W* flags to enable/disable warnings in
a project whose flags are not under the developer's control.
-std=* flags are also present in cuda/nvcc.vim, objc/clang.vim,
objcpp/clang.vim, and vhdl/ghdl.vim, but none of those linters appear to
parse compile_commands.json or `make` output.
The standard linter --fix fails if the file being input is not relative
to the project root (https://github.com/standard/standard/issues/1384).
This MR attempts to fix this by changing the command so the input file
is relative to the project root and the output is to a temporary file.
Preliminary tests with toy javascript projects seem to indicate this
works fine.
* Refactor the "s:LoadArgCount()" function
Previously, this function would always set "v:errmsg" on the first
call with a given function. This is because autoloaded functions
are not defined on the first call.
A number of improvements have been made:
- a useless local function ("l:Function") is removed
- the "execute()" builtin captures the output, instead of ":redir"
- a ":try" block handles the case where a function is not defined
- a useless ":if" is removed since ":redir" always defines the var
- confusing quoting is re-written (remove double "'" chars)

include it in s:default_ale_linter_aliases. Since [vim-ps1] is a

ESLint 6 loads all plugins/configs/parsers relative to the project root
which, by default, is the directory in which ESLint is invoked, as
described in [ESLint RFC 2018-simplified-package-loading].
Therefore, ALE should run ESLint from the project root, when possible,
so that dependencies will load. This commit does so.

Before this change, prettier_standard would run and ignore any
.prettierrc, now it will respect the configuration of the file being
linted.
This change relies on prettier-standard 16.1.0 for the --stdin-filepath
flag, but is backward compatible: older versions of prettier-standard
will ignore the unknown flag and continue to run with no configuration
file.
If checkstyle is configured with custom options that contain "-c" then
the checkstyle config file option is ignored. This PR modifies the
regular expression when creating the checkstyle command to avoid this.
ESLint errors are contained in an array that can contain different
stuff other than JSON error messages. This patch iterates over the whole
array ignoring any non-json data.
Some files lack a hashbang line but still have an unambiguous filetype.
For example, the file `.zshrc` has the filetype `zsh`.
Augment ale#handlers#sh#GetShellType to fall back to the filetype if
no hashbang line can be found.

This commit adds support for renaming symbols in tsserver and with LSP tools, and for organising imports with tsserver. Completion results for symbols that can be imported are now suggested if enabled for tsserver completion done via ALE.
jscs.info appears to have nothing to do with the linter, and just contains a blogpost about student debt.
This appears to be the closest to canonical site for the project (although it's now merged with ESLint I suppose some still use it?)

* Parse CFLAGS that can be passed using a whitelist
I went through GCC's man page and selected flags that can safely be

This commit add support for ink-language-server, which it does by
largely copying and pasting from the pure-language-server PR that was
merged recently.
The most interesting things to note are:
- ink-language-server is distributed upstream via npm, which is why we
search through node_modules
- With some coaxing, it can be installed globally - which is why we
search for a global binary.
- Ink is a funky language, and users will likely need to add
initialization options.
- I am not incredibly familiar with vimscript; and I may not have done
some of the buffer searching correctly.
On some systems, notably NixOS, there is no `/bin/ls` and thus this test
can fail unnecessarily on those systems. This commit uses
`/usr/bin/env ls` which resolves the issue.
Allows the user to override $GO111MODULE environment variable through
ale options. This gives control over the default behavior of Go module
resolution.
Golang documentation:
https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules#how-to-use-modules
Add `ale#Go#EnvString()` function to make it easy to add similar Go
environment variables in the future.
Use the new `EnvString` function in all available Go tools callbacks
& update tests
Also add test of linter command callback for `gofmt`
The default for `g:ale_lint_on_insert_leave` was recently changed to 1,
so it now needs to be explicitly set to 0 to run linters only when files
are saved.
Deoplete needs `get_complete_position` method and it has a different
signature. It already fetches the input string and attempts to detect
the position with `\k*` regexp patterns.
This option is used to determine if `min_pattern_length` is ignored.
In usual, it does not start completion when the matched input string is
shorter than `min_pattern_length`. But when the string matches
`input_pattern`, it starts completion even when ths string is `''`.
This MR adds a new configuration variable `g:ale_java_javalsp_config`
that allows to configure external dependencies and class paths to the
language server.
The variable accepts a dictionary similar to the one supported by the
[vscode/settings.json](https://github.com/georgewfraser/java-language-server#settings)
file.
Deprecates: #2561
Checkstyle xml configuration is mandatory and not providing one causes
the tool to fail with the following error:
Must specify a config XML file.
Checkstyle itself contains a default configuration as part of its
assests named `/google_checks.xml`. Invoking checkstyle with this config
works even if such file does not exists in the file system:
checkstyle -c /google_checks.xml
This should be the default invocation to allow ALE to use checkstyle
with zero configuration.
Also when a user sets `g:ale_java_checkstyle_config` option, ALE should
use it to invoke checkstyle even such file does not exists in the
filesystem. This is because checkstyle is able to use configuration files
within JAR files defined in the CLASSPATH. The default `/google_checks.xml`
is an example of such configuration available within a JAR resource.
The default binary "launcher" is too generic and can get mixed with
other tools. To use this linter user must explicitly set the absolute
path of the launcher path.
isort is great, but I've come to prefer reorder-python-imports. The tool
has a focus on smaller diffs than isort. reorder-python-imports is also
a little smarter than isort which is nice.
The existing option setting handles setting additional compile flags to
pass to clang-tidy. The new option setting added here allows setting
additional clang-tidy specific flags to be passed as well.
Fixes#2324
The command used to invoke the language server is missing some options
to include additional java modules. Without these modules the server
was not working properly.
The correct command can be found in a `launcher` script on the same
directory the `java` executable for the language server is found.
This commit changes the docs to prefer the launcher script over the java
executable. For backward compatibility it also fixes the command
invocation in case the java executable is configured.
cppcheck is now run without the --project option and from the buffer's
directory instead when the buffer has been modified. Saving the buffer
will get results by linting the project instead.
The checkstyle handler is capable of parsing the new and old output
formats. Unfortunately there are some particular output messages that
matched both the new and old regular expressions:
[WARN] whatever:11:7: WhitespaceAround: ''if'' is not followed by whitespace. [WhitespaceAround]
This caused ALE to report extra errors since the message was being
matched twice, once as a warning and another (incorrect) old formatted
error.
This MR fixes this by stopping any parsing using the old format regexp
is any errors of the new format are correcly parsed. There is no reason
to expect checkstyle to output both styles in the same report.
This linter uses the check functionality built into terraform. ALE
already has a fixer using `terraform fmt` but this doesn't provide error
messages. ALE already has a linter using `tflint` but this requires an
extra application to be installed.
For example this linter will give a warning that ! is an illegal
character in the line below:
variable "example" !{}
This linter runs the buffer through the command below and parses the
output:
terraform fmt -no-color -check=true -
This commit includes a basic implementation, documentation and tests.
The only option is to control which executable is run.
Tested with:
$ terraform -version
Terraform v0.11.13
To find the buffer corresponding to URIs reported by LSP the
HandleLSPDiagnostics() method uses the built-in bufnr() function. From
the documentation we learn that the first parameter of bufnr() is
an expression, not a path.
EclipseLSP will report project wide errors (e.g. gradle errors) that are
not related to any actual source file with an URI that corresponds to the
project root folder, e.g:
file:///home/username/Projects/gradle-simple
This URI will match any open buffer of files within the project root
hiearchy, thus project-wide errors appear as part of every file within
the project, e.g:
file:///home/username/Projects/gradle-simple/src/main/java/Hello.java
To fix this, this MR adds '^' to the beginning and '$' at the end of the
URI path to force an exact match. This is how is recommended in vim
help (see :h bufname).
We were setting the -data parameter to the project root but this caused
the language server to fail initialization and synch of gradle
dependencies. As consequence ALE failed to work fully on gradle
projects.
This fix sets the workspace to the parent folder of the project root.
Normally this corresponds to the correct Eclipse workspace path.
When this is not the case, this fix also allows users to explicitly set
the absolute path to the workspace via configuration variable.
* Search eclipselsp jar and config files within system package path
* Allow setting an alternate eclipselsp configuration directory
* Add test for ale_java_eclipselsp_config_path
The official configuration files for `flake8` are `.flake8`, `tox.ini`,
and `setup.cfg`.
After investigation, it is safe to remove `flake8.cfg` as it appears to
only exist as a typo in other tooling documentation (e.g.,
`python-language-server`).
Even though no linters automatically read `.flake8rc`, it is kept in
case projects may be using it for detecting the projects root directory.
Make it very clear in every single place that the setting for ALE's own
completion implementation is mentioned that you should not enable it if
you want to use ALE as a completion source for other plugins like
Deoplete.
- Set default value to $HOME/eclipse.jdt.ls
- Make JAR search regexp more specific.
- Allow to set the VSCode extensions folder as ale_java_eclipselsp_path.
The recommended format for _vim's internal help files_ is "<tag> <for vim version> <last change>", (see `:help help-writing` but this format is not parsed the same way for plugins. For plugins the recommended format includes a description of the plugin such as "<tag> <description>". See `:help write-local-help` for the different template.
The `settagstack` and `gettagstack` functions don't exist prior to Vim
8.1.0519. And the function definition was unclear whether it intended
to grab the *old* or the *new* file/line/col.

@@ -159,12 +165,43 @@ ALE offers some support for completion via hijacking of omnicompletion while you
type. All of ALE's completion information must come from Language Server
Protocol linters, or from `tsserver` for TypeScript.
ALE integrates with [Deoplete](https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim) as a
completion source, named `'ale'`. You can configure Deoplete to only use ALE as
the source of completion information, or mix it with other sources.
```vim
" Use ALE and also some plugin 'foobar' as completion sources for all code.
calldeoplete#custom#option('sources', {
\ '_': ['ale','foobar'],
\})
```
ALE also offers its own automatic completion support, which does not require any
other plugins, and can be enabled by changing a setting before ALE is loaded.
```vim
" Enable completion where available.
" This setting must be set before ALE is loaded.
"
" You should not turn this setting on if you wish to use ALE as a completion
" source for other completion plugins, like Deoplete.
letg:ale_completion_enabled=1
```
ALE provides an omni-completion function you can use for triggering
completion manually with `<C-x><C-o>`.
```vim
setomnifunc=ale#completion#OmniFunc
```
ALE supports automatic imports from external modules. This behavior is disabled
by default and can be enabled by setting:
```vim
letg:ale_completion_autoimport=1
```
See `:help ale-completion` for more information.
