Dokumentation - How to use workspace version

[probert94]

In an Angular-Project, I am trying to replace the TSLint plugin with this plugin.
I am using VS Code Insiders (1.32.0-insider) and I am trying to configure the plugin to use the workspace version of typescript, which is currently 3.2.4.
As the documentation says, that I only need to manually configure the TS Server, if I am using a workspace version in VS Code <= 1.30, all I did was disable the TSLint-Plugin and enable this one.
However, I don't get any Lint-Warnings.
As soon as I activate VS Code's typescript version, it works as expected.

So I tryed to install "typescript-tslint-plugin" locally using npm install --save-dev typescript-tslint-plugin and I even add the plugin-section to my tsconfig.json but it still did not work.
Installing it gloablly, using npm install -g typescript-tslint-plugin did not help either.

Here is the tsserver.log output, without configuring tsconfig.json:

Info 0 [9:27:11.889] Starting TS Server

Am I missing something?

Can you please share more from the logs. There should be a section near the top where it tries to load the plugin and that could be failing

I just had a look at the log but the plugin seems to load successfully:

Info 36 [16:50:46.59] Loading global plugin typescript-tslint-plugin

However, I noticed the following at the end of the log:

Info 7855 [16:51:41.79] [typescript-tslint-plugin] "tslint error ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'c:\Angular\my-app\node_modules\typescript\lib/angular.json'"

I then enabled the VS Code-Version of the log, to be able to compare them and there, this tslint error ENOENT is missing.

I just installed the lastest typescript-tslint-plugin version (0.3.1) using npm install --save-dev typescript-tslint-plugin and I am using Typescript 3.2.4

Are you using Nx Workspace? Can you share your tslint.json rulesDirectory property? We have the same issue. Seems like a linting rule from @nrwl/schematics depends on angular.json and can't find it when using workspace version of Typescript. There is an issue on their repo.

[probert94]

@rodbecc I am using Nx Workspace and my rulesDirectory looks like this:

    "rulesDirectory": [
        "node_modules/codelyzer",
        "node_modules/@nrwl/schematics/src/tslint"
    ],

Thanks for pointing me to the issue in Nx!

[probert94]

I tryed to remove the rulesDirectory for @nrwl/nx and the plugin works fine now.
So this issue can be closed, since it is not an issue with the plugin, but with @nrwl/nx.
