Configuring the linter

[picoDoc]

Hey,

I'm currently running VSCode 1.94.0, and 1.7.0 of the kdb extension. I have the linter enabled in extension options, and I'm able to get issues appearing in the "Problems" tab, so that's all good.

The issue I have is I can't configure the linter. I need to switch off some rules, like for example UNUSED_VAR. So far I've tried commenting in files, for example:

// @qlintrule UNUSED_VAR : false

but it seems to be ignoring these. How can I configure linting? Can I add a file, where should it be placed for it to pick it up etc.?

Hi, have you installed qlint https://code.kx.com/developer/libraries/ If installed extension will support it.
Currently the built in linter does not have any configuration options it is on or off.

ah right, so there's no way to configure the built in linter in the VSCode extension? i.e. the Problems that appear like:

Is there any plan to add this as a feature? I'm not so interested in having to run the linter manually outside of VSCode

qlint is also well integrated with the extension if you prefer it. Regarding the built in linter we are planning to add support for more config options.
