Install for Vim with Nix

Supported operating systems:

Install prerequisites

In order to install quick-lint-js' Nix package, you must first install Nix or NixOS.

Install and configure one of the following Vim plugins:

• ALE - Asynchronous Lint Engine v2.1.1 or newer, or version v3.0.0 or newer
• coc.nvim - Conquer of Completion v0.0.80 or newer

Install quick-lint-js

Open a terminal, and run the following command:

nix-env -iA nixpkgs.quick-lint-js

If the above command fails with “error: attribute 'quick-lint-js' in selection path 'nixpkgs.quick-lint-js' not found”, your Nixpkgs is out of date. Either update Nixpkgs, or install from quick-lint-js' repository instead:

nix-env -f https://c.quick-lint-js.com/releases/2.14.0/source/quick-lint-js-2.14.0.tar.gz -iA quick-lint-js
