### 2.ii Fixing
ALE can fix files with the `ALEFix` command. Functions need to be configured
for different filetypes with the `g:ale_fixers` variable. For example, the
following code can be used to fix JavaScript code with ESLint:
either in each buffer with a `b:ale_fixers`, or globally with `g:ale_fixers`.
The recommended way to configure fixers is to define a List in an ftplugin file.
```vim
" Put this in vimrc or a plugin file of your own.
" After this is configured, :ALEFix will try and fix your JS code with ESLint.
" In ~/.vim/ftplugin/javascript.vim, or somewhere similar.
" Fix files with prettier, and then ESLint.
let b:ale_fixers = ['prettier', 'eslint']
" Equivalent to the above.
let b:ale_fixers = {'javascript': ['prettier', 'eslint']}
```
You can also configure your fixers from vimrc using `g:ale_fixers`, before
or after ALE has been loaded.
```vim
" In ~/.vim/vimrc, or somewhere similar.
let g:ale_fixers = {
\ 'javascript': ['eslint'],
\}
```
" Set this setting in vimrc if you want to fix files automatically on save.
" This is off by default.
If you want to automatically fix files when you save them, you need to turn
a setting on in vimrc.
```vim
" Set this variable to 1 to fix files when you save them.
let g:ale_fix_on_save = 1
```
The `:ALEFixSuggest` command will suggest some supported tools for fixing code,
but fixers can be also implemented with functions, including lambda functions
too. See `:help ale-fix` for detailed information.

Both `g:ale_fixers` and `b:ale_fixers` can also accept functions, including
lambda functions, as fixers, for fixing files with custom tools.
See `:help ale-fix` for complete information on how to fix files with ALE.

### 5.i. How do I disable particular linters?
By default, all available tools for all supported languages will be run.
If you want to only select a subset of the tools, simply create a
`g:ale_linters` dictionary in your vimrc file mapping filetypes
to lists of linters to run.

Supposing the filetype has been set correctly, you can set the following
options in your vimrc file:

```vim
" In ~/.vim/ftplugin/jsx.vim, or somewhere similar.
let b:ale_linters = ['stylelint', 'eslint']
let b:ale_linter_aliases = ['css']

let g:ale_linter_aliases = {'jsx': 'css'}
