Build Status Codacy Badge

This linter plugin for SublimeLinter provides an interface to scalastyle. It will be used with files that have the “scala” syntax.

Installation

SublimeLinter 3 must be installed in order to use this plugin. If SublimeLinter 3 is not installed, please follow the instructions here.

Linter installation

Before using this plugin, you must ensure that scalastyle is installed on your system. scalastyle is available as an executable jar file, which can be downloaded here.

Linter configuration

In order for scalastyle to be executed by SublimeLinter, you must ensure that java's path is available to SublimeLinter. Before going any further, please read and follow the steps in “Finding a linter executable” through “Validating your PATH” in the documentation.

Once you have installed and configured scalastyle, you can proceed to install the SublimeLinter-contrib-scalastyle plugin if it is not yet installed.

Plugin installation

Please use Package Control to install the linter plugin. This will ensure that the plugin will be updated when new versions are available. If you want to install from source so you can modify the source code, you probably know what you are doing so we won’t cover that here.

To install via Package Control, do the following:

  1. Within Sublime Text, bring up the Command Palette and type install. Among the commands you should see Package Control: Install Package. If that command is not highlighted, use the keyboard or mouse to select it. There will be a pause of a few seconds while Package Control fetches the list of available plugins.

  2. When the plugin list appears, type scalastyle. Among the entries you should see SublimeLinter-contrib-scalastyle. If that entry is not highlighted, use the keyboard or mouse to select it.

Settings

For general information on how SublimeLinter works with settings, please see Settings. For information on generic linter settings, please see Linter Settings.

In addition to the standard SublimeLinter settings, SublimeLinter-contrib-scalastyle provides its own settings.

Setting Type Description
jar_file str The path to the scalastyle jar file.

By default, the linter plugin looks for a file called scalastyle-config.xml in the current directory and its parents. To override the config file path, you would add this to the linter settings:

"scalastyle": {
    "args": ["--config", "path/to/config.xml"]
}
