Sublime Text 2 For PHP Development: Real-Time Syntax Checking Using SublimeLinter

A short demonstration of using the SublimeLinter plugin to check my code for syntax errors as I type, something I do regularly with Sublime Text 2 for PHP development.

I can't find the syntax highlighter theme you're using... would you mind providing a link? Also to the Windows program you used to make your PC look more like a OSx, looks great!

I had similar issues, but it was not sublimelinter at fault. I had downloaded HTML5 package, and it was throwing sublime text 2 into HTML5 syntax mode, which sublimelinter doesn't work on apparently. To fix this, I edited the HTML5 package Syntaxes/HTML 5.tmLanguage file and commented out .php and phtml, and it works now.

Also I made sure PHP was in my path, and didn't override any executable_map stuff. Hope this helps.

There is a extra configuration, got to Preferences -> SublimeLinter -> Settings - Default and look for: { "php":"C:\ \ php \ \ php.exe" }

Make sure to escape any characters with a backslash, such as backslash itself (\). php is my default directory for php binaries, the close and open again the program, good luck.

The most important step of installing the plugin was not shown in the video? It jumps from why it should be installed to look what it does. What happen?

Thank you very much for your tips... without them i will be sucked forever trying to get this work ;)

For the author of the video my congratulations for all your videos and my disappointing for not responding to the questions that ware asked before. Because of this i will not give a like to this video.

i can get " SublimeLinter: php enabled (using "C:\xampp\php\php.exe" for executable) " in the terminal window messages in ST2, but no linting...

Is that the NetBeans syntax highlighting theme? What are you using on Windows to make it look like Mac?

[NeigerLeLoup]

Same. I can't seem to get the linter to work on my Sublime. Feel like it's simple, but I can't get it. Any suggestions?

[AntoineBoulanger]

I installed it with control package but it doesn't work. Do i need to write something in the settings or it's supposed to work right after installed ?

[ulfgj]

aargh. can't get none of them to work. what's their state today (2013)?

[StuartHerbert]

Install the plugin using Package Control.

Do I need to install PHP on my computer ?

Thanks for your time, but you do not need to listen to swallowing saliva, hint ... distancing to speak into the microphone ...
