Formact

VSCode extension to enable run actions when formatting

Installation

You can install this extension by one of the following options

• Search for formact on vscode marketplace

• Launch vscode quick open (Ctrl+p) and paste the following command

  ext install codeco.formact

How to use it ?

~~After installed, this extension will ask you for how you would like to configure its use.(TODO)~~

Edit the vscode settings to set codeco.formact as defaultFormatter and configure what actions will be called when code formatting.

{
  //# for all languages
  "editor.defaultFormatter": "codeco.formact",
  "formact.actions": ["formact.prettier.format", "eslint.executeAutofix"],

  //# for specific language
  "[typescript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "codeco.formact",
    "formact.actions": ["formact.prettier.format", "eslint.executeAutofix"]
  }
}

Also is possible configure the languages used by formact.

{
  "formact.languages": ["javascript", "typescript", "json", "jsonc"]
}

In the first example above, when formatting the code, the Prettier action and the Eslint action will be called in sequence.

OBS. 1: "javascript", "typescript", "json", "jsonc" are the default languages used by formact

OBS. 2: The Eslint command is added by the dbaeumer.vscode-eslint extension and Prettier command is added by the codeco.formact-prettier extension.

OBS. 3: Eslint work for default with Javascript files and Typescript if TypeScript is correctly configured inside ESLint. For Eslint command work with other languages like json or jsonc it need to be configured adding eslint.validate to the .vscode/settings.json with the languages ["javascript", "typescript", "json", "jsonc"]
