File change triggered every keystroke

[GabeAtWork]

I like this plugin, but I've started using it along with jest --watch, and as the plugin triggers file changes every keystroke, my tests just keep on reloading when I type.

This issue has been reported on SO. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any other way than disabling the plugin, which means that I'm not seeing live linting in the editor :(

It'd be cool if the plugin could use some other type of event which doesn't trigger these events. If someone has a solution, I'll take it :)

Anyways, thank you for this plugin, apart from this issue it does the job well

I too am being pained by this. I don't see any options to turn off auto-watch/run for the ESLint plugin. I'd like it only to run on explicit file save.

@harmon what I ended up doing is uninstalling the plugin and using the native eslint support. I didn't have any problems after that.

Hi @GabeAtWork,

Oh, cool. I'm not sure why I installed this plugin then. Maybe I didn't think it was natively supported in Webstorm and just went through the plugin install motions... this explains why I was very confused why there were two menus for ESLint in the settings panel! I removed the plugin as well and the native ESLint stuff seems to be working just fine. Thanks for pointing this out!

I ran into this problem as well. It was driving me nuts until I went to Webstorm support and they told me "third party ESLint plugins" can cause the problem. It's a shame this hasn't been resolved in over a year.
