fix: ignore hh_client output during extension init#274
Merged
Conversation
We run `hh_client` once on extension startup before starting the LSP server because `hh_client --lsp` doesn't spawn `hh_server` if it's not running already (facebook/hhvm#8548). This can cause the extension to crash if there are a very large number of errors, as the output of `hh_client` won't fit into `maxBuffer`. Until we fix `hh_client --lsp`, let's simply instruct `hh_client` to return no errors here because we don't actually care about the output.
