alwaysShowRuleFailuresAsWarnings doesn't change severity

[Ky6uk]

I'm trying to migrate to this plugin from deprecated vscode-tslint. My configuration is

{
  "extends": "./tsconfig.base",

  "plugins": [{
    "name": "typescript-tslint-plugin",
    "alwaysShowRuleFailuresAsWarnings": false
  }]
}

But alwaysShowRuleFailuresAsWarnings has no effect and errors are always displaying as warnings. vscode-tslint works fine.

VSCode v1.30.0
TypeScript v3.1.6 (workspace) and v3.2.2 (vscode)

I'm having the same issue

Did you configure the tslint.json to have default level of warning?

[Ky6uk]

Nope. I also have severity "error" for rule I see as warning.

We're experiencing the same issue. When we run lint via the CLI, we get errors/warnings as configured. In VS code they all appear as warnings. However, if I re-save the tsconfig file (even with no modifications), then after 15-20 seconds the plugin appears to honor the setting (the green squiggles change to red for errors). It seems like the plugin is listening for tsconfig changes and applying the setting, but sadly doesn't appear to apply them correctly on initial load.

A side question, why is alwaysShowRuleFailuresAsWarnings defaulted to true?

[Ky6uk]

I also found a strange behavior at v0.3.1. First time VSCode ignores alwaysShowRuleFailuresAsWarnings: true and displays errors as warnings. But when I tried to re-save tsconfig.json file with no changes the warnings magically turned to errors.

I'm encountering the same problem as what @craigsmitham describes

Closing as TSLint has been deprecated in favor of ESLint. We are archiving this repo as this project is no longer maintained
