[Feature Request] Option for toggling the `lintr` on and off

[amirmasoudabdol]

I'm wondering if it's feasible to add an option to toggle lintr on and off. I understand that this is possible through setting specific options but it'd be nice to just have a toggle button, maybe even making accessible in the Command Pallate.

Check the setting diagnostics.

Oh. Didn’t read your post carefully. However, I am afraid that it is not possible to make it togglable. A restart is always needed.

[amirmasoudabdol]

I'd say that's fine. There are options on other packages, even on Sublime that states the necessary restart. It's already good if there is an option to toggle it on/off.

Seems the diagnostics only hides the bottom pane - but does not turn off/on the lint hints in the files. Is it possible to still have tab completion for functions/etc. but not linting advice?

[randy3k]

It should stop the entire linting feature. Try restarting the sublime

[sckott]

thanks, i think that works

Check the setting diagnostics.

Could you please elaborate on this? I tried "diagnostics": false in my R-IDE.sublime-settings to turn off linting, but it does not seem to have an effect (not even after a restart).

Are u using the latest version of languageserver? There is a bug in the previous version preventing the settings to pass over to the server.

[divenyijanos]

oh, thanks, I used 0.2.6, installing the latest version solved the issue

[divenyijanos]

Setting "diagnostics": false only disables linting or some other features too?

[randy3k]

It only disables linting.

Apologies replying to an old issue. But the above "diagnostics": false trick does not seem to be able to turn off lint for ST4. I'm using the latest build 4169 and latest version of languageserver. Many thanks!
