Support for Vim signs

[bookercodes]

What do you think about using Signs to indicate erroneous lines?

@alexbooker is this easy to integrate?. window split is a pain on a macbook pro 13 inch

@orlando I'm never tried so I don't know.

I use Atom when I use Flow nowadays.

[orlando]

@alexbooker cool, I'll give a try next week to see if I can come up with something.

Thanks!

[bookercodes]

@orlando Sounds awesome 😄

I would just be a bit wary of the fact that the maintainers of this repository might not want to merge such a feature.

[orlando]

@alexbooker I was about to start work on this, but looks like Syntastic already supports it. Just add it to your javascript checkers (let g:syntastic_javascript_checkers = ['eslint', 'flow']) and that's it.

So I think we should close this issue

Same for neomake, it works well with flow.

Since I posted this two months ago I haven't really used vim-flow. Instead I use Atom so I'm not in a good position to comment.

Neomake does this really really well!

[rafaelrinaldi]

@ryyppy That's true, I'm delegating this to Neomake and it just works. Do you think is even worth having this plugin handling both linting and syntax highlighting? Maybe it's better to just take care of the latter and then suggesting other tools like syntastic and Neomake for linting, since they're out there for longer therefore are more reliable options.

[orlando]

@ryyppy how do you set up neovim to do that. I want to switch to Neovim starting next month and this is one of the features I want to get in place from the beginning.

@orlando Neomake comes with Flow support. You just have to make sure you setup flow as a maker.

@rafaelrinaldi

You just have to make sure you setup flow as a maker.

can you explain that part please?. I didn't get it

[rafaelrinaldi]

@orlando Something like this should do it:

" Disable Facebook's Flow Vim linter to avoid collisions
let g:flow#enable = 0

" Enable Flow maker
let g:neomake_javascript_enabled_makers = ['flow']

" Lint whenever saving a file
au BufWritePost * Neomake

[rafaelrinaldi]

@orlando I just wrote a more detailed explanation here.

@rafaelrinaldi awesome. Great idea to have a til repo

Cheers!
