I’m not sure why but flycheck-clj-kondo seems to only display warnings not errors, though they display via clj-kondo on the command line. I’m using the multiple linter setup with joker described here: https://github.com/borkdude/flycheck-clj-kondo#multiple-linters

what output do you see when you do flycheck-compile in a buffer?

ahh interesting

clj-kondo --lint - --lang clj --cache < /Users/rick/repos/project/src/proj/routes.clj
WARNING: --cache option didn't specify directory, but no .clj-kondo directory found. Continuing without cache. See .
<stdin>:90:31: warning: unused binding imd-cfg

linting took 31ms, errors: 0, warnings: 4

so it looks like it just lints a single file

where as clj-kondo --lint src/ lints the whole project — and has visibility of the function var that has an arity error

sorry should’ve said the specific error is an arity error

for a function included in the project but in another namespace

@rickmoynihan you need to make a .clj-kondo dir in the root of your project

then clj-kondo will create a cache where it will remember information about your vars

yeah was wondering if you’d say that 🙂

ok I’d forgot you had to do this… I set it up once in another project

thanks for the pointer

np

it also seems your clj-kondo version is not the newest?

since I removed that warning you see above in the latest 🙂

ok upgraded

I’ve mkdir .clj-kondo and when running `clj-kondo --lint “$(lein classpath)” I get the error:

clj-kondo --version
clj-kondo v2019.08.21-alpha

Not sure what this is. Can you try to remove the .cache dir in .clj-kondo?

I did that too — same error

did you install clj-kondo using a package manager, if so, which one?

brew

should be good.

what's weird is that I see twice the version: .cache/2019.08.21-alpha/2019.08.21-alpha

yeah I noticed that too

can't reproduce this locally:

borkdude@MBP2019 /tmp/project $ cat test.clj
(defn foo [] (inc))
borkdude@MBP2019 /tmp/project $ find .
.
./test.clj
./.clj-kondo
./.clj-kondo/.cache
./.clj-kondo/.cache/2019.08.21-alpha
./.clj-kondo/.cache/2019.08.21-alpha/2019.08.21-alpha
./.clj-kondo/.cache/2019.08.21-alpha/2019.08.21-alpha/lock
./.clj-kondo/.cache/2019.08.21-alpha/2019.08.21-alpha/clj
./.clj-kondo/.cache/2019.08.21-alpha/2019.08.21-alpha/clj/user.transit.json

maybe a permission thing?

I don’t think so

are you on Mac or Linux?

mac

same here

could flycheck clj-kondo in emacs be interfering with it in the terminal?

so the lock file seems to be there

the purpose of the lock file is to ensure only one process can write the cache

my lock file looks this like as well: -rw-r--r-- 1 borkdude wheel 0 Sep 5 13:07 lock

essentially the same as mine

can you maybe try to reboot your computer? you never know 😛

feel free to post a repro on Github

you can also try to run with lein, just for the sake of testing/debugging

ok will maybe have another look at this later

thanks for your help — and for clj-kondo 🙂

the uberjar is downloadable from Github, also an option. java -jar ... --lint ...

ahh great

if you want to disable the cache you can do --cache false

good luck and let me know if you have any new info
