Add-on to SublimeLinter which help you to colorize the status bar (or some other theme-ish thing) when the current view has errors.

☝️ NOTE: You have to do something to make this work. Read below 👇

Features

• It will set global flags which in turn can be used by a theme to indicate if a view/window has errors or warnings or is green to commit.

E.g. if you want to tint your status bar, you could add something like this to your .sublime-theme file. (Do this in your local override in the User folder.)

    {
        "class": "status_bar",
        "settings": ["has_lint_errors"],
        "layer0.tint": [215, 57, 18], // -00
    },
    {
        "class": "label_control",
        "settings": ["has_lint_errors"],
        "parents": [{"class": "status_bar"}],
        "color": [19, 21, 32], // 02
        "font.size": 14
    },
    {
        "class": "status_bar",
        "settings": ["has_lint_warnings"],
        "layer0.tint": [88, 31, 158], // -00
    },
    {
        "class": "label_control",
        "settings": ["has_lint_warnings"],
        "parents": [{"class": "status_bar"}],
        "color": [219, 221, 232], // 02
        "font.size": 14
    },

OR something like this

{
    "class": "status_container",
    "settings": ["has_lint_errors"],
    "layer0.tint": [215, 57, 118, 190], // -00
},
{
    "class": "label_control",
    "settings": ["has_lint_errors"],
    "parents": [{"class": "status_container"}],
    "color": [219, 221, 232], // 02
},

So you might try styling status_bar or status_container. I use the latter.

You can adjust the colors to your liking of course. Just notice the usage of the two special keys has_lint_errors and has_lint_warnings.

Maybe take a quick look at the global settings.

Install

Just use Package Control or clone this repository into your packages folder.

If you want to go fancy, you can also do this:

1. Open up the command palette (ctrl+shift+p), and find Package Control: Add Repository. Then enter the URL of this repo: https://github.com/kaste/SublimeLinter-addon-colorize-statusbar/ in the input field.
2. Open up the command palette again and find Package Control: Install Package, and just search for SublimeLinter-addon-colorize-statusbar. (just a normal install)
