Introduction + +Syntastic is a syntax checking plugin for [Vim][vim] that runs files through +external syntax checkers and displays any resulting errors to the user. This +can be done on demand, or automatically as files are saved. If syntax errors +are detected, the user is notified and is happy because they didn't have to +compile their code or execute their script to find them. + +At the time of this writing, syntastic has checking plugins for ActionScript, +Ada, Ansible configurations, API Blueprint, AppleScript, AsciiDoc, Assembly +languages, BEMHTML, Bro, Bourne shell, C, C++, C#, Cabal, Chef, CoffeeScript, +Coco, Coq, CSS, Cucumber, CUDA, D, Dart, DocBook, Dockerfile, Dust, Elixir, +Erlang, eRuby, Fortran, Gentoo metadata, GLSL, Go, Haml, Haskell, Haxe, +Handlebars, HSS, HTML, Java, JavaScript, JSON, JSX, LESS, Lex, Limbo, LISP, +LLVM intermediate language, Lua, Markdown, MATLAB, Mercury, NASM, Nix, +Objective-C, Objective-C++, OCaml, Perl, Perl POD, PHP, gettext Portable +Object, OS X and iOS property lists, Pug (formerly Jade), Puppet, Python, +QML, R, Racket, RDF TriG, RDF Turtle, Relax NG, reStructuredText, RPM spec, +Ruby, SASS/SCSS, Scala, Slim, SML, Sphinx, SQL, Stylus, Tcl, TeX, Texinfo, +Twig, TypeScript, Vala, Verilog, VHDL, VimL, xHtml, XML, XSLT, XQuery, +YACC, YAML, YANG data models, z80, Zope page templates, and Zsh. See the +[manual][checkers] for details about the corresponding supported checkers +(`:help syntastic-checkers` in Vim). + +A number of third-party Vim plugins also provide checkers for syntastic, +for example: [merlin][merlin], [omnisharp-vim][omnisharp], [rust.vim][rust], +[syntastic-extras][myint], [syntastic-more][roktas], [vim-crystal][crystal], +[vim-eastwood][eastwood], and [vim-swift][swift]. + +Below is a screenshot showing the methods that Syntastic uses to display syntax +errors. Note that, in practise, you will only have a subset of these methods +enabled. + +![Screenshot 1][screenshot] + +1. Errors are loaded into the location list for the corresponding window. +2. When the cursor is on a line containing an error, the error message is echoed in the command window. +3. Signs are placed beside lines with errors - note that warnings are displayed in a different color. +4. There is a configurable statusline flag you can include in your statusline config. +5. Hover the mouse over a line containing an error and the error message is displayed as a balloon. +6. (not shown) Highlighting errors with syntax highlighting. Erroneous parts of lines can be highlighted. + +<a name="installation"></a> + +## 2\. Installation + +<a name="requirements"></a> + +### 2.1\. Requirements + +Syntastic itself has rather relaxed requirements: it doesn't have any external +dependencies, and it needs a version of [Vim][vim] compiled with a few common +features: `autocmd`, `eval`, `file_in_path`, `modify_fname`, `quickfix`, +`reltime`, and `user_commands`. Not all possible combinations of features that +include the ones above make equal sense on all operating systems, but Vim +version 7 or later with the "normal", "big", or "huge" feature sets should be +fine. + +Syntastic should work with any modern plugin managers for Vim, such as +[NeoBundle][neobundle], [Pathogen][pathogen], [Vim-Addon-Manager][vam], [Vim-Plug][plug], or +[Vundle][vundle]. Instructions for installing syntastic with [Pathogen][pathogen] are +included below for completeness. + +Starting with Vim version 7.4.1486 you can also load syntastic using the +standard mechanism of packages, without the help of third-party plugin managers +(see `:help packages` in Vim for details). Beware however that, while support +for packages has been added in Vim 7.4.1384, the functionality needed by +syntastic is present only in versions 7.4.1486 and later. + +Last but not least: syntastic doesn't know how to do any syntax checks by +itself. In order to get meaningful results you need to install external +checkers corresponding to the types of files you use. Please consult the +[manual][checkers] (`:help syntastic-checkers` in Vim) for a list of supported +checkers. + +<a name="installpathogen"></a> + +### 2.2\. Installing syntastic with Pathogen + +If you already have [Pathogen][pathogen] working then skip [Step 1](#step1) and go to +[Step 2](#step2). + +<a name="step1"></a> + +#### 2.2.1\. Step 1: Install pathogen.vim + +First I'll show you how to install Tim Pope's [Pathogen][pathogen] so that it's easy to +install syntastic. Do this in your terminal so that you get the `pathogen.vim` +file and the directories it needs: +```sh +mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle && \ +curl -LSso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim https://tpo.pe/pathogen.vim +``` +Next you *need* to add this to your `~/.vimrc`: +```vim +execute pathogen#infect() +``` + +<a name="step2"></a> + +#### 2.2.2\. Step 2: Install syntastic as a Pathogen bundle + +You now have pathogen installed and can put syntastic into `~/.vim/bundle` like +this: +```sh +cd ~/.vim/bundle && \ +git clone https://github.com/scrooloose/syntastic.git +``` +Quit vim and start it back up to reload it, then type: +```vim +:Helptags +``` +If you get an error when you do this, then you probably didn't install +[Pathogen][pathogen] right. Go back to [Step 1](#step1) and make sure you did the +following: + +1. Created both the `~/.vim/autoload` and `~/.vim/bundle` directories. +2. Added the `execute pathogen#infect()` line to your `~/.vimrc` file +3. Did the `git clone` of syntastic inside `~/.vim/bundle` +4. Have permissions to access all of these directories. + +<a name="settings"></a> + +## 3\. Recommended settings + +Syntastic has numerous options that can be configured, and the defaults +are not particularly well suitable for new users. It is recommended +that you start by adding the following lines to your `vimrc` file, and +return to them after reading the manual (see `:help syntastic` in Vim): +```vim +set statusline+=%#warningmsg# +set statusline+=%{SyntasticStatuslineFlag()} +set statusline+=%* + +let g:syntastic_always_populate_loc_list = 1 +let g:syntastic_auto_loc_list = 1 +let g:syntastic_check_on_open = 1 +let g:syntastic_check_on_wq = 0 +``` + +<a name="faq"></a> + +## 4\. FAQ + +<a name="faqinfo"></a> + +__4.1. Q. I installed syntastic but it isn't reporting any errors...__ + +A. The most likely reason is that none of the syntax checkers that it requires +are installed. For example: by default, python requires either `flake8` or +`pylint` to be installed and in your `$PATH`. Read the [manual][checkers] +(`:help syntastic-checkers` in Vim) to find out what executables are +supported. Note that aliases do not work; the actual executables must be +available in your `$PATH`. Symbolic links are okay though. You can see +syntastic's idea of available checkers by running `:SyntasticInfo`. + +A second probable reason is that none of the available checkers are +enabled. Syntastic comes preconfigured with a default list of enabled checkers +per filetype, but this list is kept short in order to prevent slowing down Vim +or trying to run conflicting checks. The command `:SyntasticInfo` will show you +which checkers are enabled. You can tell syntastic which checkers (among the +available ones) you want to run by setting `g:syntastic_<filetype>_checkers` in +your `vimrc` (see [below](#faqcheckers)). + +A third possible reason is that the `$PATH` seen by syntastic might not be same +as the `$PATH` in your login shell. Syntastic runs checkers using the shell +pointed to by Vim's `shell` (or by `g:syntastic_shell`, if set), and that's the +shell you need to configure to set the proper `$PATH` and environment variables +for your checkers. You can see syntastic's idea of `$PATH` by running +```vim +:echo syntastic#util#system('echo "$PATH"') +``` +on UNIX and Mac OS-X systems, or +```vim +:echo syntastic#util#system('echo %PATH%') +``` +on Windows. + +Finally, another reason it could fail is that either the command line options +or the error output for a syntax checker may have changed. In this case, make +sure you have the latest version of the syntax checker installed. If it still +fails then post an [issue][bug_tracker] - or better yet, create a pull request. + +<a name="faqpython3"></a> + +__4.2. Q. The `python` checker complains about syntactically valid Python 3 constructs...__ + +A. Configure the `python` checker to call a Python 3 interpreter rather than +Python 2, e.g: +```vim +let g:syntastic_python_python_exec = '/path/to/python3' +``` + +<a name="faqhtml5"></a> + +__4.3. Q. Are there any local checkers for HTML5 that I can use with syntastic?__ + +[HTML Tidy][tidy_old] has a fork named [HTML Tidy for HTML5][tidy]. It's a drop +in replacement, and syntastic can use it without changes. Just install it +somewhere and point `g:syntastic_html_tidy_exec` to its executable: +```vim +let g:syntastic_html_tidy_exec = 'tidy5' +``` +Alternatively, you can install [vnu.jar][vnu_jar] from the [validator.nu][vnu] +project and run it as a [HTTP server][vnu_server]: +```sh +$ java -Xss512k -cp /path/to/vnu.jar nu.validator.servlet.Main 8888 +``` +Then you can configure syntastic to use it: +```vim +let g:syntastic_html_validator_api = 'http://localhost:8888/' +``` + +<a name="faqperl"></a> + +__4.4. Q. The `perl` checker has stopped working...__ + +A. The `perl` checker runs `perl -c` against your file, which in turn +__executes__ any `BEGIN`, `UNITCHECK`, and `CHECK` blocks, and any `use` +statements in your file (cf. [perlrun][perlrun]). This is probably fine if you +wrote the file yourself, but it's a security problem if you're checking +third-party files. Since there is currently no way to disable this behaviour +while still producing useful results, the checker is now disabled by default. +To (re-)enable it, make sure the `g:syntastic_perl_checkers` list includes +`perl`, and set `g:syntastic_enable_perl_checker` to 1 in your `vimrc`: +```vim +let g:syntastic_enable_perl_checker = 1 +``` + +<a name="faqrust"></a> + +__4.5. Q. What happened to the `rustc` checker?__ + +A. It is now part of the [rust.vim][rust] plugin. If you install this plugin the +checker should be picked up automatically by syntastic. + +<a name="faqxcrun"></a> + +__4.6. Q. What happened to the `xcrun` checker?__ + +A. The `xcrun` checker used to have a security problem and it has been removed. +A better checker for __Swift__ is part of the [vim-swift][swift] plugin. If you +install this plugin the checker should be picked up automatically by syntastic. + +<a name="faqloclist"></a> + +__4.7. Q. I run a checker and the location list is not updated...__ +__4.7. Q. I run`:lopen` or `:lwindow` and the error window is empty...__ + +A. By default the location list is changed only when you run the `:Errors` +command, in order to minimise conflicts with other plugins. If you want the +location list to always be updated when you run the checkers, add this line to +your `vimrc`: +```vim +let g:syntastic_always_populate_loc_list = 1 +``` + +<a name="faqargs"></a> + +__4.8. Q. How can I pass additional arguments to a checker?__ + +A. Almost all syntax checkers use the `makeprgBuild()` function. Those checkers +that do can be configured using global variables. The general form of the +global `args` variables is `syntastic_<filetype>_<checker>_args`. + +So, If you wanted to pass `--my --args --here` to the ruby mri checker you +would add this line to your `vimrc`: +```vim +let g:syntastic_ruby_mri_args = "--my --args --here" +``` + +See `:help syntastic-checker-options` for more information. + +<a name="faqcheckers"></a> + +__4.9. Q. Syntastic supports several checkers for my filetype - how do I tell it +which one(s) to use?__ + +A. Stick a line like this in your `vimrc`: +```vim +let g:syntastic_<filetype>_checkers = ['<checker-name>'] +``` + +To see the list of supported checkers for your filetype read the +[manual][checkers] (`:help syntastic-checkers` in Vim). + +e.g. Python has the following checkers, among others: `flake8`, `pyflakes`, +`pylint` and a native `python` checker. + +To tell syntastic to use `pylint`, you would use this setting: +```vim +let g:syntastic_python_checkers = ['pylint'] +``` + +Checkers can be chained together like this: +```vim +let g:syntastic_php_checkers = ['php', 'phpcs', 'phpmd'] +``` + +This is telling syntastic to run the `php` checker first, and if no errors are +found, run `phpcs`, and then `phpmd`. + +You can also run checkers explicitly by calling `:SyntasticCheck <checker>`. + +e.g. to run `phpcs` and `phpmd`: +```vim +:SyntasticCheck phpcs phpmd +``` + +This works for any checkers available for the current filetype, even if they +aren't listed in `g:syntastic_<filetype>_checkers`. You can't run checkers for +"foreign" filetypes though (e.g. you can't run, say, a Python checker if the +filetype of the current file is `php`). + +<a name="faqstyle"></a> + +__4.10. Q. What is the difference between syntax checkers and style checkers?__ + +A. The errors and warnings they produce are highlighted differently and can +be filtered by different rules, but otherwise the distinction is pretty much +arbitrary. There is an ongoing effort to keep things consistent, so you can +_generally_ expect messages produced by syntax checkers to be _mostly_ related +to syntax, and messages produced by style checkers to be _mostly_ about style. +But there can be no formal guarantee that, say, a style checker that runs into +a syntax error wouldn't die with a fatal message, nor that a syntax checker +wouldn't give you warnings against using some constructs as being bad practice. +There is also no guarantee that messages marked as "style" are less severe than +the ones marked as "syntax" (whatever that might mean). And there are even a +few Frankenstein checkers (for example `flake8` and `pylama`) that, by their +nature, produce both kinds of messages. Syntastic is not smart enough to be +able to sort out these things by itself. + +In fact it's more useful to look at this from the perspective of filtering +unwanted messages, rather than as an indicator of severity levels. The +distinction between syntax and style is orthogonal to the distinction between +errors and warnings, and thus you can turn off messages based on level, on +type, or both. + +e.g. To disable all style messages: +```vim +let g:syntastic_quiet_messages = { "type": "style" } +``` +See `:help syntastic_quiet_messages` for details. + +<a name="faqaggregate"></a> + +__4.11. Q. I have enabled multiple checkers for the current filetype. How can I +display all errors from all checkers together?__ + +A. Set `g:syntastic_aggregate_errors` to 1 in your `vimrc`: +```vim +let g:syntastic_aggregate_errors = 1 +``` + +See `:help syntastic-aggregating-errors` for more details. + +<a name="faqlnext"></a> + +__4.12. Q. How can I jump between the different errors without using the location +list at the bottom of the window?__ + +A. Vim provides several built-in commands for this. See `:help :lnext` and +`:help :lprevious`. + +If you use these commands a lot then you may want to add shortcut mappings to +your `vimrc`, or install something like [unimpaired][unimpaired], which provides such +mappings (among other things). + +<a name="faqbdelete"></a> + +__4.13. Q. The error window is closed automatically when I :quit the current buffer +but not when I :bdelete it?__ + +A. There is no safe way to handle that situation automatically, but you can +work around it: + +```vim +nnoremap <silent> <C-d> :lclose<CR>:bdelete<CR> +cabbrev <silent> bd <C-r>=(getcmdtype()==#':' && getcmdpos()==1 ? 'lclose\|bdelete' : 'bd')<CR> +``` + +<a name="otherresources"></a> + +## 5\. Resources + +The preferred place for posting suggestions, reporting bugs, and general +discussions related to syntastic is the [issue tracker at GitHub][bug_tracker]. +A guide for writing syntax checkers can be found in the [wiki][guide]. +There are also a dedicated [google group][google_group], and a +[syntastic tag at StackOverflow][stack_overflow]. + +Syntastic aims to provide a common interface to syntax checkers for as many +languages as possible. For particular languages, there are, of course, other +plugins that provide more functionality than syntastic.
