Syntastic doesn't use pylintrc

[Tim Johnson]

Using vim 7.3 on OSX 10.7

I have installed the syntastic plugin.

For checking syntax for python files, I have the following
.pylintrc:
########################################################
[DESIGN]

max-branchs = 20

max-args = 14

max-attributes = 14

max-locals = 35

[MESSAGES CONTROL]
disable-msg=W0142,R0903
########################################################
*none* of these settings seem to be read, since I am still
getting messages about any of the settings
My vim configuration is :
:let g:syntastic_python_checker = 'pylint --rcfile=/home/tim/.pylintrc'

How else can I enable the pylintrc settings?

thanks

For some settings, the following is working:
:let g:syntastic_python_pylint_rcfile='/home/tim/.pylintrc'
*but* disabling W0124 does not get rid of the 'star-args' warning.

FWIW, this has never worked. Here's a crazy idea: if everything
else fails, consider investing a few minutes in reading the manual.

Assuming you're using the current master HEAD of syntastic from git:

let g:syntastic_python_pylint_args = '--rcfile=/home/tim/.pylintrc'

For older versions of syntastic:

let g:syntastic_python_pylint_post_args = '--rcfile=/home/tim/.pylintrc'

No man for pylint. Got a URL for me?

Dadgummit, I think that one works
(I had also tried
g:syntastic_python_pylint_rcfile='/home/tim/.pylintrc')

thank you sir!

I was actuallt referring to syntastic's manual. You can read it
from Vim:

:help syntastic
