2 years ago Well, this is a tough one. We need to save a file so that SwiftLint is able to process it (as I've said already, I do not know how to successfully use stdin instead of a file). So yes, SwiftLint saves file before checking it (src/com/lonelybytes/swiftlint/annotator/SwiftLintHighlightingAnnotator.kt:82). And yes, it does not work without it.
Don't have a solution for this for now :(
PS. If you need specific Swift formatting rules, please tell JetBrains about that. They are really awesome in formatting other languages, it is very sad that Swift is not being formatted properly. I'm trying to improve that, but more bugs/votes will always help.

This is an issue that has occurred previously:
Issue #51: Swiftlint plugin is triggering the plugin File Watcher
It's not clear what the resolution was before or if the issue was, in fact, resolved since the issue reporter did not respond for further comments.
In particular, I have a watcher setup to trigger
swiftformaton a file save. With all other inspections disabled, any change to a file (without manually saving, auto-save disabled) results on swiftlint running but then also a trigger of theswiftformatFile Watcher as the file is visibly reformatted.
