42 Norminette linter for ALE.

README.md

Norminette Linter for ALE (Asynchronous Linting Engine)

https://github.com/w0rp/ale

Installation

Install this in your ale plugin directory (For Vundle + NeoVim that may be ~/.config/nvim/bundle/ale/ale_linters/c/norminette.vim)

You will of course, need the norminette ruby gem in your PATH. gem install --user --pre norminette

Configuration

This is how I configure it:

let g:ale_linters = {
\	'c': ['clang', 'norminette'],
\   'cpp': ['clang', 'norminette'],
\   'h': ['clang', 'norminette'],
\   'hpp': ['clang', 'norminette']
\}

But the default behavior of ALE is to use every possible linter.

Norme errors will now show up as errors for C files.

I have been unable to get it working for header files.

Sadly it does not work well with the new norminette enforcing norm version 3. ALE only shows one error at a time and is not able to move
the >> to the line with the norm error. I guess the fix would be to modify the pattern but I am not yet versed enough in vimscript.

So this is the new pattern in good old vimregexp :
^Error: \h\+\s\+(line:\s\+\(\d\+\),\s\+col:\s\+\(\d\+\)):\s\+\(.*\)

It tries to match the line, column and error text at the end (look out for the \( \) if your eyes are not bleeding yet)

A good tip to test your vimregexp is to set incsearch in vim so you can test in real time what you are matching !

So this is the new pattern in good old vimregexp :

With line col Error msg
fot matches (look out for the \( \) if your eyes are not bleeding yet)

I still don't know much more vimscript but Imma give it a try to make it work

Can you post an example of a norm error with the new version?

Error: SPACE_REPLACE_TAB    (line:  17, col:  11):	Found space when expecting tab
ft_memchr.c: Error!
Error: SPACE_AFTER_KW       (line:  22, col:  22):	Missing space after keyword
Error: TERNARY_FBIDDEN      (line:  26, col:   1):	Ternaries are forbidden
ft_strlen.c: Error!
Error: SPACE_REPLACE_TAB    (line:  17, col:  11):	Found space when expecting tab

You can easily install the new norminette version 3 with

python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
python3 -m pip install norminette

This above should be functional with the new norminette.
