  • Vim - Using clippy as a linter
    4 projects | /r/rust | 14 Feb 2022
    I'm not using the rust-analyzer plugin actually. I'm using the system installed rust-analyzer and diagnostic-language-server which integrates it with vim. Is there a flag or something to make rust-analyzer return clippy results as well?
  • diagnosticls-configs-nvim - pre-defined linter and formatter configs for diagnostic-languageserver

    For those who use diagnostic-languageserver, this plugin provides a list of pre-defined configurations for you to use without the hassle to figure out the config on your own. Making it easier to integrate with less code.

    So reading through everyones suggestions it seems like diagnosticls is the way to go. Looks like this is the official neovim solution https://github.com/iamcco/diagnostic-languageserver formerly https://github.com/nvim-lua/diagnostic-nvim
  • Config to edit bash scripts with fancy LSP features, linting and formatting
    7 projects | /r/vim | 17 Jun 2021
    Does anybody have such? Maybe you could share your experience? I use coc.nvim. My eyes fell on these 3 tools. The first one is language server and it has coc extensions coc-sh. But others are not so I am not sure which vim plugin should I use to hook them up: besides diagnostic-languageserver there are syntastic and neomake - bash-language-server - shellcheck - shfmt

  • TypeScript: ESLint code actions and (experimental) diagnostics / formatting
    6 projects | /r/neovim | 22 Apr 2021
    I also added 2 experimental features designed to reduce the amount of boilerplate required to get a functional TypeScript development environment. diagnostic-languageserver and efm-langserver are powerful, but they can be tough to set up for new users, so I wanted to implement low-config, out-of-the-box alternatives for formatting and linting:
  • Losing my mind with formatting
    7 projects | /r/neovim | 7 Apr 2021
    I’ve personally never gotten efm to work at all, and I never figured out why (much like your situation). I use diagnostic-languageserver, which worked like a charm the first time. I’ve heard some users say it’s slower (TypeScript versus Go), but I’ve never had any speed issues.
  • Neovim - Why I'm switching to Native LSP over CoC
    13 projects | /r/neovim | 10 Mar 2021
    Aside from that, the biggest difference versus CoC is the ecosystem, which affects setup / tweaking time and code actions. I was able to set up ESLint diagnostics with diagnostic-languageserver, but it doesn't integrate with typescript-language-server at all, and I haven't been able to set up ESLint fixing + Prettier, either, All of that is trivial with CoC.
  • LSP and pylama…
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 2 Mar 2021
    Some LSP like diagnostic language server and efm language server do that for you. However, you will need to do some manual setup yourself for pylama to work with them, unfortunately, I don't see either of them have an example for pylama so you will have to write one yourself for those LSP servers.

    you can use nvim then, it has shellcheck for diagnostics and formatting, like in vscode :)

  • Linting/formatting and LSP
    1 project | /r/neovim | 8 Sep 2023
    I use a lot of different languages generally and I'm running into issues around formatting. Is there any standard way to use LSP formatting by default and otherwise fallback to specific linter/formatting programs? I believe null-ls is the normal way of dealing with this, but since it's been archived, I'd rather not rely on it.
  • How to setup efm-langserver for pint formatter?
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 13 Jul 2023
    I've been using pint for formatting php files with null-ls.nvim. Few days ago null-ls.nvim has announced that the plugin will be archived in few months so I started migrating all my formatters and linter from null-ls to efm-langserver. I got other things such as prettier, black, isort, mypy, etc. working but can't get pint to work with php files: If I run pint via efm-langserver, everything is deleted from the buffer, and the saved file is formatted separately. How do I setup efm-langserver correctly to work with pint? Below is my config.yml for pint currently. yaml tools: pint: &pint format-command: "pint --no-interaction --quiet ${INPUT}" format-stdin: false languages: php: - <<: *pint Thank you.

    There is a good answer. I think you know lua and neovim config enough to pick things that you need. If you need a short answer, null-ls is the way.
