Syntastic for Vim: What are the required lines in ~/.vimrc? (PHP error checking)

I find the documents frustrating. What are the basic lines I need to add to my config file to get it working?

Solution

  • Technically, nothing. If you've extracted Syntastic into your .vim directory, try using the :SyntasticEnable command within Vim to enable it for the filetype of the currently open file.

    If you want to automatically turn it on for a given filetype, then you'll want to put a...

    SyntasticEnable [filetype]

    line in your .vimrc where [filetype] is the type of file you want to enable it for.
