Disable syntasic html/tidy checker for a file

Question

Is there a way to disable the html/tidy plugin for syntastic for a certain file?

I have a handlebars template that contain an empty <tbody></tbody> tag as a placeholder, and I keep getting the error trimming empty <tbody> [html/tidy]

Is there a way to either disable this specific rule, or just disable the html/tidy plugin for this specific file?

Answer 1

Additionally, if you just want to turn warnings off for html tidy:

let g:syntastic_html_tidy_quiet_messages = { "level" : "warnings" }

I have found this is a welcome setting for editing twig templates.

Of course for more info, in vim:

:h syntastic-checkers

Try to put this in your .vimrc

let g:syntastic_html_tidy_ignore_errors=[" proprietary attribute " ,"trimming empty <", "unescaped &" , "lacks \"action", "is not recognized!", "discarding unexpected"]

This solves more things than one but I think it can be helpful. More on this here.

Answer 3

I was running into this with .hbs and .html templating for a node project. Adding this to my .vimrc helped:

let syntastic_mode_map = { 'passive_filetypes': ['html'] }
