SyntaxErl is a syntax checker tool for Erlang. The syntax checker currently supports erlang source files (.erl), erlang header files (.hrl), erlang configs (.config, .rel, .script, .app, .app.src), escript files (.erl, .escript, .es), leex files (.xrl), and yecc files (.yrl). Its main purpose is to be used by tools like Emacs's Flymake and Vim's Syntastic or ALE.
SyntaxErl uses rebar, rebar3 or erlang.mk configs under the hood to determine deps and libs paths. Some common compile options are hardcoded, while others project specific are read from the config files. For the syntax checker to work correctly, make sure that your project is compilable and all the deps are at their places.
Information on building and installing Erlang/OTP can be found here (more info).
To build SyntaxErl you will need a working installation of Erlang, git, and GNU make.
$ git clone git://github.com/ten0s/syntaxerl.git
$ cd syntaxerl
$ makeAfter performing the steps above in the current working directory you now have a script called `syntaxerl'. Place this script anywhere in your path.
$ syntaxerl

Setup everything as described here. Then add
let g:syntastic_erlang_checkers=['syntaxerl']
to your vimrc.
Thanks locojay for that.
Install ALE plugin for vim 8+ or neovim.
To disable erlc linter please add the following lines to your vimrc:
let g:ale_linters = {
\ 'erlang': ['syntaxerl'],
