clang-tidy.nvim

A small plugin to publish clang-tidy diagnostics via the built in lsp diagnostics.

Install

This plugin requires plenary.nvim You can use your favorite plugin manager to install this plugin. With packer.nvim :

use 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
use 'emilienlemaire/clang-tidy.nvim'

Usage

Configuration

I recommand using this plugin only in buffer with clangd activated. You can setup a custom attach function for clangd.

local clang_tidy = require('clang-tidy')

local custom_attach_clangd = function(client)
  clang_tidy.setup()
  -- rest of the attch function
end

lsp.clangd.setup({
  on_attach = custom_attach_clangd,
  -- rest of the setup table
})

Custom configuration

You can confure clang-tidy as you wish in the setup function arguments:

require('clang-tidy').setup{
  checks = {
    '-*',
    'bugprone-*',
    'cppcoreguidelines-avoid-*',
    'readability-identifier-naming',
    'misc-assert-side-effect',
    'readability-container-size-empty-*',
    'modernize-*'
  },
  ignore_severity = {}
}

Here is the default configuration:

{
  cmd = 'clang-tidy', -- The clang-tidy command
  checks = {'*'}, -- An array of clang-tidy checks
  args = {}, -- An array clang-tidy launching args
  cwd = vim.loop.cwd, -- Function: the function to execute to get the cwd
  ignore_severity = {
    'note'
  } -- An array of severity that you don't wish to publish
}

Running clang-tidy

You can run the clang-tidy plugin with:

require('clang-tidy').run()
