Languageserver does not respect `.lintr` file

[Yousa-Mirage]

I am using lintr in VSCode on my Arch Linux WSL. I have a ~/.lintr file in the home path like this and it can be read successfully:

linters: linters_with_defaults(
  line_length_linter = line_length_linter(120L),
  assignment_linter = NULL,
  quotes_linter = NULL
  )

r$> read.dcf("~/.lintr")
     linters                                                                                                                     
[1,] "linters_with_defaults(\nline_length_linter = line_length_linter(120L),\nassignment_linter = NULL,\nquotes_linter = NULL\n)"

But it doesn't work. There are still warnings in vscode workplace.

But if I run lintr::lint("test_lint.r") directly, there are no lint warnings, so maybe my .lintr has been found and loaded correctly. Maybe there are some stupid errors I have made but I can't find.

r$> lintr::lint("test_lint.r")
ℹ No lints found.

The lintr is newest: r$> packageVersion("lintr") [1] ‘3.3.0.9000’ and I am using radian. My VSCode is on Windows and connected to WSL.

Well, there are other people who have encountered this problem, like REditorSupport/languageserver#700 (comment). I solved the problem by downgrading lintr to 3.2.0 successfully. I don't know if this is a languageserver or lintr problem.

Same problem on MacOS after updating to lintr_3.3.0-1. Downgrading to lintr_3.2.0 solved the issue.

This problem is due to r-languageserver. They have fixed in REditorSupport/languageserver#706. Before r-languageserver publish this update, you can solve this problem by these way:

• use lintr-3.2.0: remotes::install_version("lintr", version = "3.2.0")
• use newer languageserver from github pull: remotes::install_github("REditorSupport/languageserver@pull/706/head")

So this issue can be closed.
