Why not include xo/config/plugins.js?

[teehemkay]

Unless I'm mistaken, it seems to me that the settings under xo./config/plugins.js are not included here.

E.g. all the rules related to the eslint-plugin-import` plugin.

Why is that, I would thought that these rules are quite useful?

I'm actually using XO but in some case (lack of editor integration) I need to revert to using ESLint directly with 'eslint-plugin-xo,eslint-config-xo` etc.

It's because of eslint/eslint#3458 (follow and comment on that thread). Shareable configs can't have dependencies, so I would have to force the user to manually install all the plugins XO uses.

What editor integrations are you missing?

Thank you for the quick answer!

Re: the editor: WebStorm

@teehemkay Re WebStorm, see: xojs/xo#67 (comment) Should be possible to set it up with XO.

Thank you for the pointer. I think it boils down to manually replicating all the ESLint setup / configuration that XO does automatically and adjusting WebStorm default settings so that they don't conflict with XO's...

Which I had done already. I used eslint-plugin-xo, eslint-config-xo-space and eslint-config-xo-react) and created an .eslintrc* config that's essentially xo/config/plugins.js extended with the eslint-*-xo* shareable configs above.

It's was not complicated since thanks to you all the pieces are already readily available and I just needed to assemble them.

While writing this I had the an idea that maybe could help to automate the above.

But I see that someone else already suggested it :-): xojs/xo#76

So I'll add a comment there.

Thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it.
