Display flycheck error messages via posframe.
The preferred way to install flycheck-posframe is via
MELPA - then you can just M-x package-install RET
flycheck-posframe RET
To enable then simply add the following to your init file:
(with-eval-after-load 'flycheck
(require 'flycheck-posframe)
(add-hook 'flycheck-mode-hook #'flycheck-posframe-mode))We recommend to use use-package to make this automatic:
(use-package flycheck-posframe
:ensure t
:after flycheck
:config (add-hook 'flycheck-mode-hook #'flycheck-posframe-mode))If you would like to install the package manually, download or clone it and
place within Emacs' load-path, then you can require it in your init file like
this:
(require 'flycheck-posframe)
(add-hook 'flycheck-mode-hook #'flycheck-posframe-mode)NOTE: This will also require the manual installation of flycheck if you have
not done so already.
Calling (flycheck-posframe-configure-pretty-defaults) will configure
flycheck-posframe to show warnings and errors with nicer faces (inheriting
from warning and error respectively), and set the prefix for each to nicer
unicode characters.
There are a few settings which can be configured to customise the display
of error messages. These include the faces which are used to show the error
messages flycheck-posframe-info-face, flycheck-posframe-warning-face
and flycheck-posframe-error-face and a string which is used as the prefix
for each message
flycheck-posframe-info-prefix``flycheck-posframe-warning-prefix and
flycheck-posframe-error-prefix. The background colour can be specified as
the background attribute of the flycheck-posframe-background-face
face. The position, as well as the border width and colour can also be customised via the flycheck-posframe-position, flycheck-posframe-border-widthandflycheck-posframe-border-color`
variables respectively.
By default each of flycheck-posframe-LEVEL-face inherits from the default
face so should appear like the rest of the text in the buffer. If however you
want to ensure error messages stand-out you could configure them to inherit
from the error face:
(set-face-attribute 'flycheck-posframe-error-face nil :inherit 'error)
By default flycheck-posframe-LEVEL-prefix is set to "➤ ". If however you
wanted to show each warning message prefixed with the unicode WARNING SIGN symbol
(U+26A0) "⚠ " you could configure it as follows:
(setq flycheck-posframe-warning-prefix "\u26a0 ")
By default flycheck-posframe-background-face inherits from the default
face, so the background colour should be the same as the standard window
frame background colour. This can be customised like any other face (ie. by
using customize-face or manually setting the :background face
attribute)
By default flycheck-posframe-border-face inherits from the default face,
so the background colour should be the same as the standard foreground
colour. This can be customised like any other face (ie. by using
customize-face or manually setting the :foreground face attribute)
By default flycheck-posframe-border-width is zero but this can be set to
an integer number of pixels to specify the width of the border.
By default flycheck-posframe-position is set to
point-bottom-left-corner so that errors are shown just below point. This
can be customised to any of the existing positions supported by
posframe. For example, to display errors at the bottom-left of the
window:
(setq flycheck-posframe-position 'window-bottom-left-corner)
