Tried to add the pylint_django plugin but it did not work either.

Edit: Although I'm using the pylint binary outside of my virtualenv, I had to install the plugin in the virtualenv as well. Now the plugin works like a charm. Maybe this helps you as well, @m3asmi?

thank you @jonathanhacker for the tip, but I'm not using virtualenv

I have this same issue.

interesting, it does seem to be related to the colorized parameter. I took that out and suddenly it seems to work just fine.

Look in the source code. The plugin calls pylint the the --output-format json to extract the result of pylint.

So of course if you use --output-format=colorized it will fail, as it now doesn't get the JSON result it expects...
