This linter plugin for SublimeLinter provides an interface to nginx-lint. It will be used with files that have the nginx
syntax, which requires sublime-nginx to be installed as well.
SublimeLinter 3 must be installed in order to use this plugin. If SublimeLinter 3 is not installed, please follow the instructions here.
Before using this plugin, you must ensure that both sublime-nginx and nginx-lint is installed on your system.
Please see sublime-nginx for installation instructions, or simply install it via Package Control:
-
Within Sublime Text, bring up the Command Palette and type
install
. Among the commands you should seePackage 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. -
When the plugin list appears, type
nginx
. Among the entries you should seenginx
. If that entry is not highlighted, use the keyboard or mouse to select it.
Please see nginx-lint for installation instructions.
In order for nginx-lint
to be executed by SublimeLinter, you must ensure that its 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 nginx-lint
, you can proceed to install the SublimeLinter-contrib-nginx-lint
plugin if it is not yet installed.
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.
