3.1 Adding Language Servers *ale-lint-language-servers*
ALE comes with many default configurations for language servers, so they can
be detected and run automatically. ALE can connect to other language servers
by defining a new linter for a filetype. New linters can be defined in |vimrc|,
in plugin files, or `ale_linters` directories in |runtimepath|.
See |ale-linter-loading-behavior| for more information on loading linters.
A minimal configuration for a language server linter might look so. >
call ale#linter#Define('filetype_here', {
\ 'name': 'any_name_you_want',
\ 'lsp': 'stdio',
\ 'executable': '/path/to/executable',
\ 'command': '%e run',
\ 'project_root': '/path/to/root_of_project',
\})
<
For language servers that use a TCP socket connection, you should define the
address to connect to instead. >
call ale#linter#Define('filetype_here', {
\ 'name': 'any_name_you_want',
\ 'lsp': 'stdio',
\ 'address': 'servername:1234',
\ 'project_root': '/path/to/root_of_project',
\})

Most of the options for a language server can be replaced with a |Funcref|
for a function accepting a buffer number for dynamically computing values
such as the executable path, the project path, the server address, etc,
most of which can also be determined based on executing some other
asynchronous task. See |ale#command#Run()| for computing linter options
based on asynchronous results.
See |ale#linter#Define()| for a detailed explanation of all of the options
for configuring linters.

3.2 Other Sources *ale-lint-other-sources*
Problems for a buffer can be taken from other sources and rendered by ALE.
This allows ALE to be used in combination with other plugins which also want
