How to I display results of phpcs in VIM?
- by Matt
I am presently trying to use PHP Codesniffer (PEAR) in vim for PHP Files. I have found 2 sites that give code to add into the $HOME/.vim/plugin/phpcs.vim file. I have added the code and I "think" it is working, but I cannot see the results, I only see one line at the very bottom of vim that says (1 of 32) but I cannot see any of the 32 errors.
Here is my .vimrc file
" Backup Options -> Some People may not want this... it generates extra files
set backup " Enable Backups
set backupext=.bak " Add .bak extention to modified files
set patchmode=.orig " Copy original file to with .orig extention Before saving.
" Set Tabs and spacing for PHP as recomended by PEAR and Zend
set expandtab
set shiftwidth=4
set softtabstop=4
set tabstop=4
" Set Auto-indent options
set cindent
set smartindent
set autoindent
" Show lines that exceed 80 characters
match ErrorMsg '\%80v.\+'
" Set Colors
set background=dark
" Show a status bar
set ruler
set laststatus=2
" Set Search options highlight, and wrap search
set hls is
set wrapscan
" File Type detection
filetype on
filetype plugin on
" Enable Spell Checking
set spell
" Enable Code Folding
set foldenable
set foldmethod=syntax
" PHP Specific options
let php_sql_query=1 " Highlight sql in php strings
let php_htmlInStrings=1 " Highlight HTML in php strings
let php_noShortTags=1 " Disable PHP Short Tags
let php_folding=1 " Enable Ability to FOLD html Code
I have tried 2 different versions of phpcs.vim, and I get the same results for both:
Version 1 (found at: VIM an a PHP IDE)
function! RunPhpcs()
let l:filename=@%
let l:phpcs_output=system('phpcs --report=csv --standard=YMC '.l:filename)
" echo l:phpcs_output
let l:phpcs_list=split(l:phpcs_output, "\n")
unlet l:phpcs_list[0]
cexpr l:phpcs_list
cwindow
endfunction
set errorformat+=\"%f\"\\,%l\\,%c\\,%t%*[a-zA-Z]\\,\"%m\"
command! Phpcs execute RunPhpcs()
Version 2: (found at Integrated PHP Codesniffer in VIM )
function! RunPhpcs()
let l:filename=@%
let l:phpcs_output=system('phpcs --report=csv --standard=YMC '.l:filename)
let l:phpcs_list=split(l:phpcs_output, "\n")
unlet l:phpcs_list[0]
cexpr l:phpcs_list
cwindow
endfunction
set errorformat+="%f"\\,%l\\,%c\\,%t%*[a-zA-Z]\\,"%m"
command! Phpcs execute RunPhpcs()
Both of these produce identical results.
phpcs is installed on my system, and I am able to generate results outside of vim. Any help would be appreciated I am just learning more about vim...
