This issue is a known bug in ansible-lint, not in flymake-ansible-lint.
It is ansible-lint that truncates some error messages:
$ ansible-lint -p test.yaml
test.yaml:5: yaml[truthy]: Truthy value should be one of
In future versions of flymake-ansible-lint, the author plans to utilize ansible-lint's JSON output. This change will enable the parsing of structures like:
$ ansible-lint test.yaml -f json
[{"type": "issue", "check_name": "yaml[truthy]", "categories": ["formatting", "yaml"],
"url": "https://ansible-lint.readthedocs.io/rules/yaml/", "severity": "info",
"level": "error", "description": "Truthy value should be one of \\[false, true]",
"fingerprint": "******************************************",
"location": {"path": "test.yaml", "lines": {"begin": 5}}}]
The author will need to refactor the code to implement this. Contributions are welcome.
