When using the each method from jquery, I alway get a "inconsistent indentation" error on the 2nd line, where says frag += in this example:

$.each content, (index, obj) ->
  frag +=
    template.replace( /{{title}}/ig, obj.title )
            .replace( /{{thumbnail}}/ig, obj.thumbnail )

Is this a compatibility issue?

Btw, this code validates without issues in http://www.coffeelint.org

You have SublimeLinter-coffee in plugins that do the same work. Wy do you need this plugin? What are differences?

Hi,

This tool is really great, except that I have trouble configuring it in Sublime Text. Is there somewhere a detailed explanation or examples for configuration in Sublime or where to put a configuration file ?

(right now the alerts about the length of the line and the use of tabs make that the tool is unusable)

Thanks a lot !

Hi,
It might be very basic question, but I need the answer. Where should I put the coffeelint.json file, so that SublimeLinter picks these settings.
Thanks,
Raghu

The coffeelint linter applies every default rule when run without a configuration file. It's impractical for users to create configuration files for every project, and the SublimeLinter interface should allow global customization from within Sublime Text. SublimeLinter-coffeelint should be modified to read an ignore list from the SublimeLinter.sublime-settings file, as SublimeLinter-flake8 does, and apply these rules to coffeelint.

Looks like there is a 404.

As of version 4 of SublimeLinter the support for the config_file is removed (SublimeLinter/SublimeLinter#891). Therefore it is no longer possible to use the project specific coffeelint.json configuration files.

In the old implementation SL was checking the tree upwards till the file was found. But now each linter should handle this on their own.
Coffeelint does support this behavior as well but not for stdin executions.

Therefore the old behavior needs to be implemented for SL-coffeelint again (maybe similar to oschwald/SublimeLinter-perlcritic#7)

Using coffeelint 1.4.1 from sublimelinter-coffeelint Sublime Text reports --csv option has been deprecated.

In the CoffeeLint documentation, it states that it supports CoffeeLint rules in the package.json file.

New in 1.0: CoffeeLint will automatically pick up config files. When linting a file (as opposed to stdin) it will walk up the directory tree looking for a coffeelint.json or a package.json that has a "coffeelintConfig" object. If neither of those are found or you're linting from stdin it will check your home for a coffeelint.json file."

This can be verified by running something like coffeelint src/ with the rules in place. This behaviour doesn't appear to work with SublimeLinter-coffeelint though.

I've trued clearing the SublimeLinter cache, but I believe this is a bug in the implementation

In summary, the linter uses the top-most coffeelint.json file it finds, instead of the nearest. That means that we can't use directory-level overrides.

Here's a repo that reproduces this case:

https://github.com/morleyzhi/sublime-coffeelint-cascade

If you clone and open forty-chars/test.coffee and save, you would expect it to use forty-chars/coffeelint.json, but it doesn't, according to the Sublime console (and the lint results):

SublimeLinter: coffeelint: test.coffee ['C:\\Users\\Morley\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\coffeelint.cmd', '--reporter', 'jslint', '--stdin', '-f', 'C:\\Users\\Morley\\Documents\\GitHub\\sublime-coffeelint-cascade\\forty-chars\\coffeelint.json'] 

Hi,

I'm trying to lint my .cjsx files (CoffeeScript JSX Syntax) but I don't know how can I configure sublimelinter for check those files

can you help me?

Whenever I try to use --file instead of -f to specify a config file in my preferences, SublimeLinter tries to run:

['/usr/local/bin/coffeelint', '--reporter', 'jslint', '--stdin', '--file', '<myfile>', '-f', '<home>/coffeelint.json'] 

Instead of replacing the -f argument with --file.

When I lint a CS file, I only ever get syntax errors reported. However, I have coffeelint configured to report errors e.g. on shadowed variables, inconsistent indentation, duplicate keys and so on; running coffeelint from the command line does show these issues, but they remain unmarked in ST3. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Note: Just to be on the safe side, I copied my settings from ~/coffeelint.json to ~/npm/lib/node_modules/coffeelint/coffeelint.json, as I've read there may be issues in finding the right configuration file.

EDIT This issue can probably be closed. The problem got solved when I renamed the ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Installed Packages/SublimeLinter-coffeelint.sublime-package file (originally I wanted to see whether I could change some code in the package). Now I wonder exactly which ST plugin gets executed to highlight errors, but on the other hand, I do get errors and warnings marked.

I'd like to change the configuration filename from coffeelint.json to .coffeelintrc

It's possible to override the entire "-f" option in plugin settings:

{
  "user": {
    "linters": {
      "coffeelint": {
        "@disable": false,
        "args": ["-f", "${project}/.coffeelintrc"],
        "excludes": []
      }
    }
  }
}

But in this case, we can't use the "bubble search" of the file performed by SublimeLinter

A better solution could be to let user specify the file name in settings, and use it in the config_file linter attribute, instead of having it hard-coded

Does it seem doable ?

The coffeelint man page states:

New in 1.0: CoffeeLint will automatically pick up config files. When linting a file (as opposed to stdin) it will walk up the directory tree looking for a coffeelint.json or a package.json that has a "coffeelintConfig" object. If neither of those are found or you're linting from stdin it will check your home for a coffeelint.json file.

It would be nice if the plugin would find the correct coffeelint.json by traversing the directory tree of the current file and append the correct -f flag.

Similar to #1, I'd like to be able to customize the linter options. This plugin should honor these settings in the SublimeLinter.sublime-settings file:

            "coffeelint": {
                "@disable": false,
                "args": "-f .coffeelint.json",
                "excludes": []
            }

Where .coffeelint.json is a file at the root of the currently open folder or project.

I am using zsh & nvm, so I've followed the 3rd step in "Linter installation", but .zshenv cannot load nvm.
Relogin or restart the system cannot help either.

What exactly should I do?

I apologize if this is an obvious question, but I'm new to Node and using linters with Sublime Text 3.

I've followed the instructions to generate a config file from here: http://www.coffeelint.org/#usage. Now where do I need to place the coffeelint.json file so that ST3 reads it first?

Thank you.
