Can't find swiflint

[Javarome]

I had the plugin working on my project for a while, then it stopped working with that message:

Can't find swiftlint utility here:
/opt/homebrew/bin/swiftlint
Please check the path in settings.

/opt/homebrew/bin/swiftlint is the result of which swiftlint. Running swiftlint or /opt/homebrew/bin/swiftlint on the command line works.

My .swiflint.yml is at the root of my project.

Setting /opt/homebrew/bin in Tools > Swiftlint > Swiftlint path doesn't work either.

• Plugin version: 1.13.3
• AppCode version: 2021.1.3
• Swiflint version: 0.43.1

@Javarome Please check with new version. Hope I got this.

[Javarome]

Thanks @bealex. Got the 1.13.4 and, well, yes and no: no more errors indeed, swiftlint seems to be found now... but no swiftlint warnings are displayed in the editor (only JetBrains inspections). Again, such warning are properly listed using command line swiftlint in the same directory.

[bealex]

@Javarome Is SwiftLint is turned on in inspections?

[Javarome]

Yes it was disabled then I enabled it again.

But still no warnings.
I tried to relaunch AppCode as well, with no more luck.

[Javarome]

@bealex Actually I can see only one swiftlint warning, about trailing_whitespace.

So obviously it is running, but I wonder if it is find/using the proper .swiflint.yml. Mine is located at the root of the project.

[bealex]

Yup, it is something with config locations, seeing same in some projects. Will get to it soon.

[bealex]

Just to be sure I'm looking in the right direction. How many projects do you have opened at the same time?

[Javarome]

Only one.

For what it's worth, the config file is ~/AppCodeProjects/myproject/.swiftlint.yml.

But of course there are many others in libs caches (like ~/Library/Caches/JetBrains/AppCode2021.1/DerivatedData/MyProject/-xxxx/SourcePackages/checkouts/SomeLib/.swiftlint.yml) and externs (like Extern/Sparkle/.swiftlint.yml for instance)

[bealex]

Can you please try this version? This way it will be faster then go through JB approval process. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ulwpmf2ew9fbxff/SwiftLint.zip?dl=0

[Javarome]

Installed this 1.13.5 zip from disk but nothing better, sorry.

[bealex]

Thanks! OK, thinking...

[Javarome]

Maybe some additional configuration file path in the plugin settings could help? If left blank, default config files lookup would apply, otherwise it would be passed as swiflint --config arguments.

[bealex]

Right now I'm not passing --config parameter, it breaks some scenarios. Basically what I'm doing is:

• getting source root directory (for example project root)
• getting file that we are linting now and directory that it is contained in
  Somewhere in between these directories there can be SwiftLint configuration file (it must be called .swiftlint.yml, I can't deal with other config file names)

I try to find this file (starting from source root), and run swiftlint in the directory where config file is found. If no file is found, swiftlint is run from the source root directory.

This should work for project files, for editing of frameworks (that can be added as sources and contain their own source roots). And it will ensure all swiftlint logic about using several/nested .swiftlint.yml files works.

It would help a lot if you describe where (from the project root) your config files are located, and where sources are located.
