Prettier is an opinionated code formatter. It enforces a consistent style by parsing your code and re-printing it with its own rules that take the maximum line length into account, wrapping code when necessary

This plugin adds support for the CoffeeScript language to Prettier

Install

This plugin currently requires a forked version of Prettier (in order to support things like implicit calls and objects, new Prettier primitives are required - here's the PR) as well as CoffeeScript v2.5.0 or higher.

So the best way to ensure that the required dependencies are available to the plugin is to explicitly install them in your project along with the plugin:

yarn:

yarn add --dev coffeescript@^2.5.0 github:helixbass/prettier#prettier-v2.1.0-dev.100-gitpkg prettier-plugin-coffeescript

npm:

npm install --save-dev coffeescript@^2.5.0 github:helixbass/prettier#prettier-v2.1.0-dev.100-gitpkg prettier-plugin-coffeescript

Usage

To run Prettier manually, you can add prettier as a script in your package.json,

{
  "scripts": {
    "prettier": "prettier"
  }
}

and then run it via

yarn run prettier path/to/file.coffee --write
# or
npm run prettier -- path/to/file.coffee --write

In practice, there are various ways to run Prettier:

most editors can be configured to run Prettier automatically (see below for instructions for specific editors)
Prettier can be configured to run via a linter like ESLint
you can enforce the usage of Prettier by having it run automatically before committing code

The "Usage" section of the Prettier docs describes how to set these up

Running in-editor

Depending on your editor, there may or may not currently be a straightforward way to get Prettier running against .coffee files (e.g. using a Prettier editor plugin).

If you're having trouble getting Prettier running in your editor (and it's not listed below), please file an issue and we'll try and help with support for your editor.

VS Code

To run Prettier from VS Code, first install the VS Code Prettier extension.

Then add to your VS Code settings.json:

"[coffeescript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
}

Configuration

The following formatting options are supported:

Name	Default	Description
`printWidth`	`80`	Same as in Prettier (see prettier docs)
`tabWidth`	`2`	Same as in Prettier (see prettier docs)
`singleQuote`	`true`	If set to `true`, non-interpolated strings/heredocs will prefer single quotes (`'abc'`/`'''I'm a heredoc'''`)
`comma`	`none`	Applies to multiline arrays/calls/function params/explicit objects <br> If set to `none`, no commas will be used <br> If set to `nonTrailing`, commas will be added after non-last items <br> If set to `all`, commas will be added after all items
`noImplicit`	`[]`	If includes `callParens`, call parentheses will always be explicitly included <br> If includes `objectBraces`, object braces will always be explicitly included
`respectExplicit`	`[]`	If includes `callParens`, explicit call parentheses in the original source will be preserved <br> If includes `objectBraces`, explicit object braces in the original source will be preserved
`respectBreak`	`['control', 'functionBody', 'object']`	Applies to multiline structures in the original source <br> If includes `control`, the formatter will not attempt to inline multiline control structures (`if`/`unless`/`for`/`while`/`until`/`try`) <br> If includes `functionBody`, the formatter will not attempt to inline functions with indented bodies <br> If includes `object`, the formatter will not attempt to inline multiline objects (similar to Prettier JS formatter)
`inlineAssignmentsTo`	`['control']`	If includes `control`, will attempt to inline assignments of control structures
`emptyParamListParens`	`false`	If set to `true`, functions with an empty param list will include an empty pair of parentheses eg `() -> a`
`indentChain`	`false`	If set to `true`, multiline chained method calls will be indented with respect to the first line of the chain <br> :warning: Warning :warning: Setting `indentChain: true` can currently cause broken formatting in some edge cases

Any of these can be added to an existing or new Prettier configuration file. For example:

{
  "respectExplicit": ["objectBraces"],
}

Help / Contributing / Feedback

Please file an issue or submit a pull request on Github with any bugs/questions/suggestions

If you're interested in contributing to the development of this plugin, Prettier's CONTRIBUTING guide may be helpful

To get started:

Clone this repository
Run yarn install
Create a test.coffee file
Run yarn prettier test.coffee to check the output
You can adjust the project's .prettierrc file to temporarily adjust formatting options when running manually
Run yarn test while developing to see if any formatting snapshots have changed
To update the stored snapshots, run yarn test -u
Add new snapshot tests under tests/. New subdirectories need a jsfmt.spec.js file, where you can specify multiple different formatting option configurations for those snapshots if desired
