How to make it work with RVM

[andyentity]

I provided the full correct path to rubocop in the configuration and now I am getting the following error:

Error: /usr/bin/env: ruby_executable_hooks: No such file or directory

This is probably because I am using RVM. If I want to use ruby in the shell,
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm has to be evaluated first. The script is setting all the environment variables and stuff that are needed for the shell to find everything.

How can I tell linter-rubocop (or Atom) to do this?

You will need to create a rvm wrapper script and set that to the executable path in Atom.

Thanks! However, now I'm getting the following error:

The wrapper script itself is working fine, I can use rubocop without source-ing in my bash.

@andyentity you may have a better time installing it to your system ruby, it should be on your PATH so you shouldn't need to do any configuration and you won't have to remember the syntax for regenerating the wrapper script every time you update rubocop

@Arcanemagus what do you think about doing something like injecting the project folder path into the configuration variable and then using binstubs? Example:
#{projectDirectory}/bin/rubocop or #{projectDirectory}/bin/bundle exec rubocop

I'm asking mostly because I tend to have multiple projects that run with multiple versions of rubocop (some of which are out of my direct control) and this might be a smarter way to tackle this problem. Is that a crazy idea?

@andyentity You'll need to upgrade rubocop. The version you're using isn't supported.

[Arcanemagus]

@whoward Are you talking about something like what linter-pylint does?

[whoward]

@Arcanemagus i don't use that one but from the docs yeah the %p option sounds like the idea i'm talking about

[andyentity]

The wrapper script is competely sufficient for my needs.
Upgrading to the lastest rubocop version did the trick. Everything is working! Thanks a lot.

[Arcanemagus]

@whoward If you could file an issue to track implementing that, that would be great 😉.

@andyentity glad to hear it 😄. (Marked invalid as this was a configuration issue, not a bug in linter-rubocop.)

[whoward]

@Arcanemagus no problem - see #100

Using 000-project-shell-env you don't need to specify a path. You can just use linter-rubocop defaults.
