flycheck-guile

This library provides a flycheck checker for the GNU Guile programming language. It requires a working Geiser configuration, and runs guild compile on your code to collect warnings and errors.

Installation

This package is not yet available on MELPA or Guix.

To install it manually, download this code, add the directory to your Emacs load-path, and (require 'flycheck-guile) somewhere in your Emacs configuration.

Usage

The checker will automatically activate in scheme-mode buffers with geiser-mode, where guile is the current scheme implementation.

Troubleshooting

If it seems like the checker is not working, try running M-x flycheck-verify-checker guile for some diagnostics.

If the checker is working, but can't find your guile modules (ie. reporting "no code for module" errors), make sure that you have correctly configured geiser-guile-load-path for your project. The checker uses this variable to determine the load paths passed to guild compile.

A simple way to configure load paths is to add a .dir-locals.el file to the root directory of the project:

((nil
  (eval . (with-eval-after-load 'geiser-guile
            (let ((root-dir
                   (file-name-directory
                    (locate-dominating-file default-directory ".dir-locals.el"))))
              (unless (member root-dir geiser-guile-load-path)
                (setq-local geiser-guile-load-path
                            (cons root-dir geiser-guile-load-path))))))))

This will look for the Guile module (foo bar baz) in foo/bar/baz.scm relative to the root directory of the project.
