Formats your JavaScript using prettier
followed by eslint --fix
For files with an extension of .css
, .less
, or .scss
,
this only runs prettier
since eslint
cannot process those.
The fix
feature of eslint
is pretty great and can auto-format/fix much of your code according to
your ESLint config. prettier
is a more powerful automatic formatter. One of the nice things about prettier
is how opinionated it is. Unfortunately it's not opinionated enough and/or some opinions differ from my own. So after
prettier formats the code, I start getting linting errors.
This formats your code via prettier
, and then passes the result of that to eslint --fix
. This way you can get the
benefits of prettier
's superior formatting capabilities, but also benefit from the configuration capabilities of
eslint
.
This module is distributed via npm which is bundled with node and should be installed as one of your
project's devDependencies
:
npm install --save-dev prettier-eslint
const format = require('prettier-eslint')
// notice, no semicolon in the original text
const sourceCode = 'const {foo} = bar'
const options = {
text: sourceCode,
eslintConfig: {
parserOptions: {
ecmaVersion: 7,
},
rules: {
semi: ['error', 'never'],
},
},
prettierOptions: {
bracketSpacing: true,
},
fallbackPrettierOptions: {
singleQuote: false,
}
}
const formatted = format(options)
// notice no semicolon in the formatted text
formatted // const { foo } = bar
The source code to format.
The path of the file being formatted can be used to override eslintConfig
(eslint will be used to find the relevant
config for the file).
The config to use for formatting with ESLint. Can be overridden with filePath
.
The options to pass for formatting with prettier
. If not provided, prettier-eslint
will attempt to create the
options based on the eslintConfig
(whether that's provided or derived via filePath
). You can also provide some of
the options and have the remaining options derived via your eslint config. This is useful for options like parser
.
NOTE: these options override the eslint config. If you want fallback options to be used only in the case that the rule cannot be inferred from eslint, see "fallbackPrettierOptions" below.
The options to pass for formatting with prettier
if prettier-eslint
is not able to create the options based on the
the eslintConfig
(whether that's provided or derived via filePath
). These options will only be used in the case that
the corresponding eslint rule cannot be found and the prettier option has not been manually defined in prettierOptions
.
If the fallback is not given, prettier-eslint
will just use the default prettier
value in this scenario.
prettier-eslint
does quite a bit of logging if you want it to. Pass this to set the amount of logs you want to see.
Default is process.env.LOG_LEVEL || 'warn'
.
By default, prettier-eslint
will try to find the relevant eslint
(and prettier
) module based on the filePath
. If
it cannot find one, then it will use the version that prettier-eslint
has installed locally. If you'd like to specify
a path to the eslint
module you would like to have prettier-eslint
use, then you can provide the full path to it
with the eslintPath
option.
This is basically the same as eslintPath
except for the prettier
module.
By default, prettier-eslint
will run prettier
first, then eslint --fix
. This is great if you want to use prettier
,
but override some of the styles you don't like using eslint --fix
.
An alternative approach is to use different tools for different concerns. If you provide pretterLast: true
, it will
run eslint --fix
first, then prettier
. This allows you to use eslint
to look for bugs and/or bad practices, and use
prettier
to enforce code style.
prettier-eslint
will propagate errors when either prettier
or eslint
fails for one reason or another. In addition
to propagating the errors, it will also log a specific message indicating what it was doing at the time of the failure.
Code ➡️ prettier ➡️ eslint --fix ➡️ Formatted Code ✨
The eslintConfig
and prettierOptions
can each be provided as an argument. If
the eslintConfig
is not provided, then prettier-eslint
will look for them
based on the fileName
(if no fileName
is provided then it uses
process.cwd()
). Once prettier-eslint
has found the eslintConfig
, the
prettierOptions
are inferred from the eslintConfig
. If some of the
prettierOptions
have already been provided, then prettier-eslint
will only
infer the remaining options. This inference happens in src/utils.js
.
An important thing to note about this inference is that it may not support
your specific eslint config. So you'll want to check src/utils.js
to see how
the inference is done for each option (what rule(s) are referenced, etc.) and
make a pull request if your configuration is supported.
Defaults if you have all of the relevant ESLint rules disabled (or have
ESLint disabled entirely via /* eslint-disable */
then prettier options will
fall back to the prettier
defaults:
{
printWidth: 80,
tabWidth: 2,
singleQuote: false,
trailingComma: 'none',
bracketSpacing: true,
semi: true,
useTabs: false,
// prettier-eslint doesn't currently support
// inferring these two (Pull Requests welcome):
parser: 'babylon',
jsxBracketSameLine: false,
}
There is a lot of logging available with prettier-eslint
. When debugging, you can use one of the logLevel
s to get a better idea of what's going on. If you're using prettier-eslint-cli
then you can use the --log-level trace
, if you're using the Atom plugin, then you can open the developer tools and enter: process.env.LOG_LEVEL = 'trace'
in the console, then run the format. You'll see a bunch of logs that should help you determine whether the problem is prettier
, eslint --fix
, how prettier-eslint
infers your prettier
options, or any number of other things. You will be asked to do this before filing issues, so please do 😄
NOTE: When you're doing this, it's recommended that you only run this on a single file because there are a LOT of logs :)
While using // eslint-disable-line
, sometimes you may get linting errors after the code has been processed by this module. That is because prettier
changes this:
if (x) { // eslint-disable-line
}
to this:
if (x) {
// eslint-disable-line
}
And the eslint --fix
wont change it back. You can notice that // eslint-disable-line
has moved to a new line. To work around this issue, you can use //eslint-disable-next-line
instead of // eslint-disable-line
like this:
// eslint-disable-next-line
if (x) {
}
None that I'm aware of. Feel free to file a PR if you know of any other solutions.
