A solution that works for me (July 2017), is to utilize ESLint. As everybody knows, you can use the linter in multiple ways, globally or locally. I use it locally and with the google style guide. They way I set it up is as follow...

• cd to your working directory
• npm init
• npm install --save-dev eslint
• node_modules/.bin/eslint --init
• I use google style and json config file

Now you will have a .eslintrc.json file the root of your working directory. You can open that file and modify as you please utilizing the eslint rules. Next cmd+, to open vscode system preferences. In the search bar type eslint and look for "eslint.autoFixOnSave": false. Copy the setting and pasted in the user settings file and change false to true. Hope this can help someone utilizing vscode.
