How can I make lua-language-server to fail on style (formatting) errors?

[itaranto]

I'm using Neovim and I'd like to use the lua-language-server command to check for style (formatting) errors.

This is pretty useful for using it in a CI/CD pipeline.

According to the docs, It seems I need to add the following into my LSP config:

            Lua = {
              -- ...
              diagnostics = {
                neededFileStatus = {
                  ["codestyle-check"] = "Any"
                },
              },
              -- ...
            }

But if I run:

lua-language-server --check . --checklevel=Warning

It doesn't seem to be reporting style errors.

Am I doing something wrong?

So, it seems that using the .luarc.json file works:

  "diagnostics.neededFileStatus": {
        "codestyle-check": "Any"
  },

But now it seems to be reporting style errors from the Lua runtime:

check.json
