Unreasonably high CPU usage

[aidenlangley]

Clearly describe the bug

This seems a bit excessive, and I'm tempted to run without the VS Code extension and just lint before building, but this means I'll be backtracking and fixing code when I could be writing lint-passing code at the time.

Is it constantly linting my entire repo? Just linting the open file would be preferable.

What code is needed to reproduce this issue?

My repo is hosted here: https://github.com/aidenlangley/wowhub.co.nz

All configs and code can be found & inspected if you'd like. I'll include my VS code user settings & workspace settings also.

What vscode-stylelint configuration is needed to reproduce the bug?

My only user space VS code stylelint setting is as follows:

"stylelint.snippet": ["css", "less", "scss"],

My workspace settings, really simple too:

"stylelint.packageManager": "npm",
...
"css.validate": false,
"less.validate": false,
"scss.validate": false,

Is this issue related to autofix? (editor.codeActionsOnSave)

No

Which version of vscode-stylelint are you using?

v0.86.0

Which version of stylelint are you using?

13.13.1

Does your issue relate to non-standard syntax (e.g. SCSS, nesting, etc.)?

I am using PostCSS & TailwindCSS, here is the config & plugins:

const mode = process.env.NODE_ENV
const dev = mode === 'development'

const config = {
  plugins: [
    require('postcss-import'),
    require('tailwindcss/nesting')(require('postcss-nesting')),
    require('tailwindcss'),
    require('autoprefixer'),
    !dev &&
      require('cssnano')({
        preset: 'default',
      }),
  ],
}

module.exports = config

What did you expect to happen?

Less fan noise please, less CPU usage.

What actually happened (e.g. what warnings or errors you are getting)?

My laptop is noisier than it ought to be.

Thanks for the report. In the last few weeks we've released vscode-stylelint 1.x, which targets Stylelint 14.x, and 0.x is no longer maintained (migration guide). Is this still an issue you're experiencing with 1.x?

Is it constantly linting my entire repo? Just linting the open file would be preferable.

Speaking for 1.x, the linter runs:

• On all open documents when the extension activates
• On all open documents when files change in the workspace
• On all open documents when the extension's settings are changed
• On a given open document when its contents change

In all these instances, Stylelint itself is only run if the extension's configuration indicates that it should validate a given document. With default settings, for instance, a JS file won't be included in any of the above scenarios.

Closing this now since it's been a week. Feel free to re-open if this is continuing to be a problem. Thanks!
