ALE v3.3.0 Latest
Latest

New Features

  • ALE is now tested against the following Vim versions:
    • Vim 8.0
    • Vim 9.0
    • NeoVim 0.2
    • NeoVim 0.8
  • LSP completion messages with textEdit but no insertTextFormat. #4124
  • b:ale_shell and b:ale_shell_arguments can now be used to set shell options
    per-buffer. #4146
  • ALE now advertises codeActionLiteralSupport so language servers such as
    rust-analyzer return code actions to ALE. #4163
  • An ALEGoToImplementation command has been added to go to the location
    of the implementation of a symbol via supporting language servers.
  • All floating window borders characters can now be configured with
    g:ale_floating_window_border. #4215
  • Floating windows can be heavily customised with
    g:ale_floating_preview_popup_opts. #4247

  • ALE completion has been tweaked to work better with C files. #4231
  • ALE now always sets out_cb or err_cb for jobs to swallow messages to
    prevent Vim from excessively polling results. #4259
  • ALE now outputs virtual-text messages in Vim 9. #4281 #4291
  • virtual-text messages can be shown for all lines, not only the line the cursor
    is on, by setting ale_virtualtext_cursor = 'all'. #4289
  • virtual-text messages are now enabled by default where supported nicely. #4396
  • ALE now reports LSP linters that fail to run due to a project root not being
    set as an error, so you can figure out why nothing is happening more easily.

ALE v3.2.0

Special Notes

  • The pyls linter has been removed because it's no longer maintained, and it has been replaced with the pylsp linter. #3810

ALE v3.0.0

Deprecated Features

  • The g:ale_completion_tsserver_autoimport option has been deprecated. Use g:ale_completion_autoimport instead.

Removed Features / Breaking Changes

Many previously deprecated features have been removed. Here is a list of the features removed, and what you should use instead.

Removed Replacement
:ALEGoToDefinitionInTab :ALEGoToDefinition -tab
:ALEGoToDefinitionInSplit :ALEGoToDefinition -split
:ALEGoToDefinitionInVSplit :ALEGoToDefinition -vsplit
:ALEGoToTypeDefinitionInTab :ALEGoToTypeDefinition -tab

(linter) 'address_callback': 'Foo' 'address': function('Foo')
(linter) 'language_callback': 'Foo' 'language': function('Foo')
(linter) 'initialization_options_callback': 'Foo' 'initialization_options': function('Foo')
(linter) 'lsp_config_callback': 'Foo' 'lsp_config': function('Foo')
(fixer) chain_with ale#command#Run

You can update your scripts to work with the current or previous versions of ALE by checking the ALE version with ale#Has('ale-2.7.0').

The following <Plug> mappings were previously scheduled for deprecation, but instead will be supported forever, and are now documented again.

  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_tab)
  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_split)
  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_definition_in_vsplit)
  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_tab)
  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_split)
  • <Plug>(ale_go_to_type_definition_in_vsplit)

Removed linter options

The following linter options have been replaced.

  • ale_psalm_langserver_executable -> ale_php_psalm_executable
  • ale_psalm_langserver_options -> ale_php_psalm_options
  • ale_psalm_langserver_use_global -> ale_php_psalm_use_global

make dry run parsing on BSD

ALE now uses make -n --always-make for parsing make dry runs on Linux and BSD. This will not work at all with BSD make, and there's no way to automatically take the option away for BSD users without making ALE worse on all other systems. BSD users should use let g:ale_c_always_make = 0 to make it work again. This issue does not affect Mac OSX users, because ALE can use !has('macunix') to disable the option by default for Mac OSX users.

Generic cc Linter

The existing gcc and clang linters have been replaced with a generic cc linter, which can be selected with any of the old linter names. This combined linter now attempts to run clang if available, and falls back to running gcc. See issue #3299 for more information.

New Features

  • ALE now supports linting or fixing files via Docker containers, virtual machines, remote file systems, etc. #2556 #3325
  • %s and %t in commands can now be formatted with :h, :t, :r, and :e, to apply filename-modifiers. #2556
  • lint_file for linters can now be computed dynamically, and from deferred results, so linters and dynamically switch between running only against files on disk, or checking code on the fly. #3285
  • Parsing compile_commands.json for automatically figuring out flags for compilers is now enabled by default, and several improvements have been made to how ALE handles flags for C/C++ linters.
  • ALE will now show LSP/tsserver hover information in your echo line when your cursor rests on a symbol ALE can get information about. #1532
  • ALE now handles some Markdown formatting in hover text, and set syntax highlights when displaying hover text where possible. #3274
  • ALE now supports renaming symbols (:ALERename) with connected LSP servers that support it, like gopls. #3047 #3196 #2943
  • ALE can now be configured to provide auto-completion with imports for LSP servers. #2976 #3196 #3267
  • A new :ALEImport command can be used to request imports for words at the cursor. #3268
  • You can now disable warnings in tsserver completion results, which may not be relevant to you. #2849
  • When completion text is inserted, including through :ALEImport, a new ALECompletePost event is triggered. #3333
  • You can now call :ALEFix with a bang (:ALEFix!) to suppress warnings/errors, such as through ALECompletePost. #3333
  • A new :ALELintStop command has been added which lets you stop any linters currently running. #3333
  • ALE is able to better recognise when newer LSP servers support capabilities like hover, "go to definition," etc. #2907
  • Ignored linters now appear clearly in :ALEInfo. #3003

New Linters

  • AsciiDoc - languagetool #3229
  • Python - pyright - #2472
  • sh - bashate #2732 #3070
  • Swift - swift-format #3007 (Not to be confused with swiftformat, which is a different tool and fixer.)
  • SQL - sql-lint #2988
  • Verilog - hdl-checker #2804
  • zig - zls #3232

New Fixers

  • dockerfile_lint now shows more useful information in detailed error messages. #3158
  • The documentation for cloudformation linters has been improved a little bit. #3172
  • The eclipselsp linter now starts better on more platforms. #3137
  • ktlint uses stdin now, so .editorconfig files can be loaded. #3119 #3029

  • The markdownlint linter now parses more output. #3259
  • More markdownlint versions are now supported. #3253
  • You can now pass options for markdownlint #2940
  • The puppet linter now parses output better. #3223

  • The govet linter now works with more recent versions of Go. #3191
  • PowerShell linters now work by default when the filetype is ps1. #3010
  • The sh linter will now check scripts with the current filetype if there's no hashbang line. #2906
  • You can now set custom target directories for cargo with ale_rust_cargo_target_dir. #3164
  • The vlog linter parses the filename for the errors now. #2924
  • credo now recognizes umbrella projects #2759

  • You can now configure flake8 to try to run from the Python project root. This is the new default. #2858
  • The ember-template-lint linter now reads from stdin too, for newer versions. #2622

C/C++ flag detection

A wide range of improvements have been made to how ALE detects C/C++ compiler flags.

  • Paths from compile_commands.json are now resolved in a much better way, which results in a massive improvement in how ALE determines flags for files. #3307
  • The ccls linter now detects compile_commands.json in other directories. #3123 #2621
  • compile_commands.json flags can now be used for linting header files. #2919
  • ALE now tells clang-tidy that .h files are C++ files when the filetype is set to C++ in Vim. #1608
  • @file arguments in compile_commands.json are now handled. #3178
  • -std flags from _options settings for C/C++ linters are now replaced by flags parsed from compile_commands.json or make -n. #3056
  • ALE now uses make -n --always-make by default on Linux and BSD, to fix issues with ALE not reading flags after make is run. See above notes on breaking changes for BSD. #2038 #3247
  • -fstack-usage is now removed from parsed C flags, which breaks linters. #3200
  • -iframework is now included in parsed C flags. #3057
  • -include is now included in parsed C flags. #3317

Fixer Enhancements

  • You can now set ale_ruby_rubocop_auto_correct_all to 1 to apply unsafe fixes in Rubocop. #3237
  • The rubocop fixer now fixes via stdin with the filename, which makes the fixes more accurate. #3230
  • The prettier-standard fixer should now respect configuration files. #2920
  • The prettier fixer now runs from where .prettierignore is to ignore files, if available. #3101
  • The standard fixer should work again. Updates to standard broke it. #3046

Bugs Fixed

  • The ESLint fixer now users the same directory switching logic that the linter uses, for plugin detection. #3094
  • ESLint linters and fixers now search for the location of ESLint and plugins by finding the node_modules directory that contains an ESLint executable. #3222
  • LSP servers like mspyls can respond with invalid hover data, which caused errors in ALE. ALE handles this invalid data now. #3273

ALE v2.5.0

Bugs Fixed

  • ALE no longer tracks if LSP linters are busy, and thus allows loclist windows to close automatically. #2460
  • The ale_disable_lsp setting wasn't applied if you didn't also ignore something else.
  • The ale_disable_lsp setting wasn't applied to diagnostic callbacks if you had previously run language servers.
  • ALE's handler for language server diagnostics could display results for a directory in a file. This has been fixed. #2524
  • ALE no longer lints on save if ale_lint_on_save is set to 0 after fixing a file with ale_fix_on_save. #2497
  • When jumping through problems, problems at column 0 are treated as if they were at column 1, so jumping through them works. #1317
  • Turning ALE's automatic completion on could stop Ctrl+O working in Insert mode. This should now only happen right before the completion menu is about to open automatically. #2535
  • Completion positions were off by 1 in many cases. Completion results should be greatly enhanced now. #2544
  • tsserver diagnostics were off by 1 on the last character. #2551
  • ALE now prints a friendly message when you try to use :ALEInfoToClipboard and no clipboard is available. #2438
  • The checkstyle error parser now stops after finding results in the newer format, so it doesn't show some errors twice. #2543
  • Highlights weren't being removed when set up in other character cases, such as all lowercase. #2555
  • In order to better support environments like MSYS, ALE now converts backslashes in paths in Unix to forward slashes, even though they are valid characters for filenames in Unix. #2525
  • ALE now updates loclists for all windows showing a buffer, instead of just the first one. #2253
  • Linters that have been previously defined with the same name for the same filetype are now replaced. #1727

New Features

  • Fixers can be prevented from being run automatically on save with the new ale_fix_on_save_ignore setting. #1930
  • ALE can now apply fixes to buffers that aren't currently open in Vim versions with the deletebufline function. #1739
  • ALE now integrates with Deoplete for offering completion results, in addition to ALE's own completion implementation. #1753 #2492

  • ALE's automatic completion implementation can now be disabled for specific buffers by using let b:ale_completion_enabled = 0.
  • ALE now updates the tagstack when jumping from one file another by default. #2448
  • ALE now use's NeoVim's highlighting API, where available, instead of Vim's. Highlights in newer versions of NeoVim are now adjusted as lines move around as a result. #2169 #2475 (REMOVE FROM NOTES if this isn't done in time. Taken out for now.)
  • ALE now tells language servers documents are closed when buffers are deleted. #829
  • ALE now tells language servers which features are supported by ALE. #2515
  • You can now send custom request to language servers ALE knows about with ale#lsp_linter#SendRequest. #2549

Other Changes

  • Newlines are now removed for language server messages with newlines, but kept in detailed messages. #2425
  • ALE now displays simple messages instead of detailed messages in virtualtext. #2434
  • ALE now uses the 'S' flag for writefile to avoid using fsync calls for temporary files it creates, which may improve performance for some machines.
  • ALE now lints when leaving insert mode and not while in Insert mode by default.
  • b:ale_lint_on_insert_leave can now be set to 0 to disable linting when leaving insert mode for particular buffers.

  • The stack and cabal linters now set the working directory to where the file is. #2345
  • The working directory for shellcheck is now set to the buffer's directory by default. #2446
  • phpstan problems are now marked as errors. #2444
