Re: feature request: public API to get new flymake's errors/warnings

[Yuta Yamada]

You should be able to just do:

  (defun flymake-tip-get-diag-text-on-line ()
      "Return list of string of error/warning info on the current line."
      (cl-loop for diag in (flymake-diagnostics (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol))
               collect (flymake-diagnostic-text diag)))

If noone objects I shall push the patch to emacs-26 in a couple of days time.

Thanks Joao, there is no objection from me.

I'll try `flymake-diagnostic-XXX' stuff after you pushed.

Thanks,

The attached patch augments the API for these purposes (and describes it
in the manual).

You should be able to just do:

  (defun flymake-tip-get-diag-text-on-line ()
      "Return list of string of error/warning info on the current line."
      (cl-loop for diag in (flymake-diagnostics (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol))
               collect (flymake-diagnostic-text diag)))

If noone objects I shall push the patch to emacs-26 in a couple of days time.
