Question about multiple editors.

[Jxhnn]

Hello, i have a question about this awesome project.

Can the linter support multiple file modules ?
Like i want to put in my editor a typescript file with an import. Can it be also parsed ? Is it possible to add files like that without creating an editor ?

Best regards.

@Jxhnn, thank you for your interest in this project! Due to limitations in the browser environment, achieving a fully functional experience, especially with the file system, is somewhat challenging. However, there is a workaround for the TypeScript service: you can set your files to the extraLibs property in globalOptions, similar to this:

languageProvider.setGlobalOptions("typescript", {
    extraLibs: {
        "dir/someFile.ts": {
            content: "export var someVar = 123",
            version: 1
        }
    }
});

import in that case could be:

import * as someFile from "./dir/someFile";

someFile.someVar

Also hasn't got autocomplete anymore with my settings. If none is available with eslint is there a way I can make it only use my editor.completers rather than the linter autocompletion?

EsLint provides only diagnostics, you could use either typescript service, or eslint in conjunction with typescript - it would use diagnostics from eslint and other functionality from typescript

Can I disable the override of no autocomplete and use the default ace editor mode?

[mkslanc]

Sure - just set completion and completionResolve to false.

let provider = LanguageProvider.fromCdn({ services: [], 
serviceManagerCdn: "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ace-linters/build", 
includeDefaultLinters: { javascript: true } }, {functionality: {
    completion: false, completionResolve: false
}});
