prettier-plugin-astro
Advanced tools
The prettier-plugin-astro package is a plugin for Prettier that adds support for formatting Astro files. Astro is a modern static site builder that allows you to use components from various frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte. This plugin ensures that your Astro files are consistently formatted according to Prettier's rules.
Formatting Astro Components
This feature allows you to format Astro components, ensuring that the HTML, JavaScript, and any other embedded code are properly indented and styled according to Prettier's rules.
<!-- Example Astro Component -->
---
const title = 'Hello, World!'
---
<html>
<head>
<title>{title}</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>{title}</h1>
</body>
</html>Formatting Embedded JavaScript
This feature ensures that any JavaScript code embedded within your Astro files is formatted correctly, maintaining consistency and readability.
<!-- Example Astro Component with JS -->
---
const items = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
---
<ul>
{items.map(item => (
<li key={item}>{item}</li>
))}
</ul>Formatting Embedded CSS
This feature ensures that any CSS code embedded within your Astro files is formatted according to Prettier's rules, making your styles consistent and easy to read.
<!-- Example Astro Component with CSS -->
<style>
h1 {
color: blue;
}
</style>
<h1>Hello, World!</h1>The prettier-plugin-svelte package is a Prettier plugin that adds support for formatting Svelte files. Like prettier-plugin-astro, it ensures that your Svelte components are consistently formatted. However, it is specific to Svelte and does not support the multi-framework nature of Astro.
The prettier-plugin-vue package is a Prettier plugin that adds support for formatting Vue.js single-file components (SFCs). It ensures that your Vue components are consistently formatted, but it is specific to Vue.js and does not support the multi-framework nature of Astro.
Official Prettier plugin adding support for formatting .astro files
npm i --save-dev prettier-plugin-astro prettier
To customize formatting behavior, see the Configuration section below
When using the CLI, Prettier will automatically pick up the plugin
prettier -w .
Due to an upstream issue in Prettier, the plugin-search-dir parameter should be set to the current directory when using pnpm or Prettier won't be able to find the plugin automatically
prettier -w --plugin-search-dir=. .
First install the VS Code Prettier extension and add the following settings to your VS Code configuration so VS Code is aware that Prettier can be used for Astro files:
{
"prettier.documentSelectors": "**/*.astro"
}
Additionally, you should set Prettier as the default formatter for Astro files or VS Code will ask you to choose a formatter everytime you format since the Astro VS Code extension also includes a formatter for Astro files:
{
"[astro]": {
"editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
}
}
When submitting issues about formatting in VS Code, first make sure you're actually using Prettier to format your files and not the Astro VS Code extension included formatter
Due to an upstream issue, Prettier inside VS Code isn't able to automatically infer the right parser to use for Astro files when using pnpm
As such, add the following settings to your .prettierrc.js config file:
module.exports = {
plugins: [require.resolve('prettier-plugin-astro')],
overrides: [
{
files: '*.astro',
options: {
parser: 'astro',
},
},
],
};
The require.resolve call can alternatively be changed to a direct path, like such: plugins: ["./node_modules/prettier-plugin-astro"] for usage inside a non-JS config file
Most options from Prettier will work with the plugin and can be set in a configuration file or through CLI flags.
Sort order for the markup and styles. Depending on the order, top-level style tags will be sorted below or on top of the rest of the template
The format is a string with the words markup and styles separated by a pipe (|)
| Default | CLI Override | API Override |
|---|---|---|
markup | styles | --astro-sort-order <string> | astroSortOrder: <string> |
Set if attributes with the same name as their expression should be formatted to the short form automatically (for example, if enabled <element name={name} /> will become simply <element {name} />)
Please note that at the time of writing, the shorthand form is not currently supported inside the Astro VS Code extension
| Default | CLI Override | API Override |
|---|---|---|
false | --astro-allow-shorthand <bool> | astroAllowShorthand: <bool> |
.prettierrc.js{
astroSortOrder: "markup | styles",
astroAllowShorthand: false
}
Pull requests of any size and any skill level are welcome, no contribution is too small. Changes to the Astro Prettier Plugin are subject to Astro Governance and should adhere to the Astro Style Guide
