Instructions

1. To install any linter first copy the linter.lua file to the folder data/plugins/ of the lite editor which has the needed foundation for the linters.
2. Copy the specific linters you want to use to the same folder.
3. Make sure you have the commands needed for each linter to use them.
4. If you want to configure options in some of the linters you can edit you data/user/init.lua

local config = require "core.config"
local insert = table.insert

-- [[ Each linter will load the arguments from a table in config.<linter_name>_args ]]

-- Mark global as known to the linter
insert(config.luacheck_args, "--new-globals=love")

-- Add error reporting in fuctions which exceed cyclomatic complexity
insert(config.luacheck_args, "--max-cyclomatic-complexity=4")

-- Add warnings if lines pass a maximum length
insert(config.luacheck_args, "--max-line-length=80")
