I've just started using the Vetur VS Code extension for formatting .vue files. Everything seemed to work fine (syntax highlight, EMMET, etc.), but it just doesn't want to format the JavaScript code in tags. "Prettier" can't format it either. I tried to tweak my settings, tried disabling Prettier and Vetur respectively, but nothing seems to work. Code formatting is fine in and , though.
Now the project I'm going to be working on doesn't have any build steps, it uses Single File Component loader, so ESLint and Prettier in my build tooling is out of the picture. Plus, I'd rather have these tools in my IDE/Editor.
Where could the problem be? It looks like some sort of bug to me, I just don't know in which component: VS Code? Prettier? Vetur?
Thank you!
I have read about 10-15 other answers now and none of the solutions (which are all the same minus 3 or 4) have worked for me. I am using Prettier and Vetur and I have the ESLint extension in VSCode installed as well. I have looked over the settings at least 10 times in the past 3 days trying to touch everything, close/open VSC and save to format, check if the problem persists, and continue doing this with each setting one-by-one trying to eliminate the suspects. I am here as a last resort out of desperation to be able to save my components without breaking my html tags and separating code into illegible BS.
My expected code formatting looks like this:
<button
class="btn btn-success"
#click="sellStock"
:disabled="insufficientFunds || quantity <= 0 || !Number.isInteger(quantity)"
>{{ insufficientQuantity ? "Not enough Stocks" : "Sell" }}</button>
and my formatter is causing the " at the end of the line after "...isInteger(quantity)" to be line-broken which breaks my entire component's syntax/major linter errors appear (obviously).
<button
class="btn btn-success"
#click="sellStock"
:disabled="
insufficientFunds || quantity <= 0 || !Number.isInteger(quantity)
"
>
{{ insufficientQuantity ? "Not enough Stocks" : "Sell" }}
</button>
As you can see, even the line breaks are uneven and make ZERO sense formatter-wise...I've never seen it do this before. This is next-level annoying Vue/Vetur/Prettier/VScode formatting bugs now and I'm quite stumped as to why it's suddenly acting up this week.
I have tried changing word-wrap-length and prettier lengths and indentations, font size and appearance of the mini map...nothing seems to make this madness stop, not even turning of html formatting period. It also formats some of my other ".vue" components into multiple lines when I don't want it to, but it isn't breaking the syntax/html tags as it is here. I have made the word-wrap/line-length 200+ everywhere that it's listed as a settings and it continues to break my code.
Any ideas?
Only advice I can give is stop using Prettier. Trying to make it work with ESlint and Vetur was always pain. Then I found this question (and self answer) here on SO which recommends dropping Prettier and using ESlint not just for linting but also for formatting (needs version >= 6). I'm happy as clam now...
I've been struggling with a similar problem with VSCode's formatting. I also have Prettier, ESLint and Vetur extensions installed. But my code formatting rules were somehow different from my co-worker's (they are using WebStorm by the way).
In my case, the problem was solved by:
Turning off all the Vetur formatters and disabling all formatting capabilities of Vetur.
Enabled ESLint as the formatter.
This seems to have allowed the Prettier extension to look at .eslintrc.js, which the Prettier plugin is setup.
I suggest that you look in on the Prettier extension logs to debug your problem.
On the bottom right corner of VSCode's window, you will see the Prettier extension indicator. Click on this and you can see the logs.
Once the logs are shown, you can see where the extension is getting the Prettier configs from, or where the Prettier module is being imported from.
What helped me with this situation, I went into Vetur's extension settings inside VSCode Vetur > Format > Default Formatter: HTML and selected js-beautify-html.
I just had this problem and resolved it.
The issue I had was that my html in the .vue file was malformed (Specifically I had a closing tag which shouldn't have been there).
I was relying on it formatting on save, and when that didn't work I tried manually selecting "format document with prettier" which did nothing.
It was only when I looked in the output window (Which I should have done immediately) that I saw that it was complaining about the misplaced closing div tag.
It's a silly oversight, but easily made.
What fixed it for me was to actually turn on Eslint to work as a formatter in settings.
Due to logs, I just needed to install the prettier dependency, so:
yarn install
or, if you do not have it already, add it:
yarn add prettier
this fixed my problem.
I'm working on my first Vue project in the company that I work. I have noticed when I run the project I get warnings that they have be fixed using --fix all the warnings are related with indentation, spaces, new lines and things like that. Is there a formatter for Vue? I was using the default VS Code format on save but didn't help with the warnings.
As of this writing, the gold standard for linting JavaScript is eslint. For Vue, you can use eslint-plugin-vue.
The user guide will walk you through how to install and configure, and how to integrate it into your editor.
When I am editing a file with the Vue extension in VS Code I do not get Syle intellisense in the HTML. If I change the Language Mode to HTML then it works but I no longer get Vue intellisense.
Is there a way to make this work in a Vue file?
Absolutely, you can install the following extension: Vetur. It has great features like linting, formatting, snippets and of course syntax highlighting.
I've started learning React Native.
I'm using Visual Studio Code as my editor.
I've set up the boiler plate and started the app. But whenever I change a .js file and hit save, VSCode is messing up all the formatting.
I thought I could sort this in the settings.json file but after googling for a while and playing around I can't find the correct setting.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Setting file is default one:
UPDATE: I re-installed vscode. Then set up a basic js file with a react native tag and a html tag. I added in:
"editor.formatOnSave": false,
"javascript.format.enable": false
To my settings.json file and the problem still occurs:
The problem is having tags in a js file, I just don't know how to tell vscode to ignore them?
I found out what this was by looking though the extensions. Thanks to #wgj for the hint.
Turns out it was the JS-CSS-HTML formatter. I looked through the instructions and have removed the auto save for now. I'll have to work out the specific settings for this.
It uses js-beautify so if anyone knows the settings I should be looking at would be much appreciated.
I had a similar problem and it turned out my ultimate culprit was...
So I simply disabled it for the workspace.
Same here, all my HTML format messed up after saving, I disable "JS-CSS-HTML Formatter" and problem solved
In the end, what did the trick was changing the file format from JavaScript to JavaScript React on the bottom toolbar.
All my HTML format messed up in js after saving, I disable "JS-CSS-HTML Formatter" and restarted vscode, problem solved.
I found my solution to this problem by converting my components file extension from js to jsx. No more issues and everything is working fine.
Disable js-css-html formatter.
if you are using prettier and beautify together, override the setting as :
"beautify.ignore": [
"**/*.js",
"**/*.jsx"
]
Use Prettier Code Formatter instead of Beautify. Works perfectly for language mode Babel JavaScript
You should search for "format" in settings.json. You'll find a whole lot of TypeScript/JavaScript formatting tweaks in there, but the one that stands out to me is:
// Defines space handling after opening and before closing non empty brackets.
"javascript.format.insertSpaceAfterOpeningAndBeforeClosingNonemptyBrackets": false
Alternative, you're not a fan of formatting at all, you can turn it off entirely:
// Enable/disable default JavaScript formatter.
"javascript.format.enable": true,
However, a lot of my formatting options come from language server extensions, so if you're using one for React Native specifically, be sure to check the attributes in settings.json, or the docs to see if there are any attributes you can add.
Add this on settings.json file. Whether you are using any extension or not, use this code. It works fine for me:
Solution 1: Just Disable JS-CSS-HTML Formatter
Solution 2: Press Ctrl+, (open settings) after that search Code formatted and change none --> Prettier
If you don't have prettier install from the extension's marketplace.
i just had this problem , apparently its because of the beautify/prettier , try to disable both , then restart Vs code (your editor) . but then if u really want to use prettier , go under its extension settings and make sure its in strict with whitespaces and toogle around a few other settings and you should be fine , cheers .
Just turning off format on save option from the settings would work.
You can select JavaScript React in the task bar under Select Language Mode.
You can try one of the following
uninstall other formatters which are not required. To check how many formatters you have just press ctrl + shift + p or command +shift + p (mac) and type format document after that a menu will appear showing you your formatters
press ctrl + shift + p or command +shift + p (mac) and type settings and click on open users settings and then search for format on save and check the box
that's it!!
Enjoy
changing the file format from JavaScript to JavaScript React on the bottom toolbar worked just fine for me
I have tried all methods but the problem is solved completely by this:
-> Open setting.json
-> "files.associations": {
"*.js": "javascriptreact"
}
->Add above lines and press save the problem will solve
You can type the following command string when creating your project
npx create-react-app name-of-app react-complete-guide
or the following, if you have create-react-app installed already
create-react-app name-of-app react-complete-guide
