+
+cfn-python-lint is a linter for AWS CloudFormation template file.
+
+Website: https://github.com/awslabs/cfn-python-lint
+
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Installation
+
+Install cfn-python-lint using either pip or brew: >
+
+ pip install cfn-lint
+<
+If pip is not available use setuptools. >
+
+ python setup.py clean --all
+ python setup.py install
+<
+You can install the linter via brew on macOS. >
+
+ brew install cfn-lint
+<
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Configuration
+
+To get cloudformation linter to work on only CloudFormation files we must set
+the buffer |filetype| to `yaml.cloudformation`. This causes ALE to lint the
+file with linters configured for cloudformation and YAML files.
+
+Just put the following in `ftdetect/cloudformation.vim`: >
+
+ au BufRead,BufNewFile *.template.yaml set filetype=yaml.cloudformation
+
+This will get both cloudformation and yaml linters to work on any file with
+`.template.yaml` extension.
