1 . x formats to 1.x. In MySQL/MariaDB/TiDB 1. re-lexes as a number literal,
which swallows the following property-access operator, so the formatted output
parses to a different expression than the input -- formatting isn't idempotent.

Insert a space when a . would attach directly to a bare integer literal, the same
way the existing guard keeps - - from becoming --. Identifiers that merely end
in a digit (t1.x) and decimals are unaffected, since the guard only triggers on a
pure integer literal.

Added a mysql test that formats 1 . x and checks the result formats back to itself.

Formatting a numeric property access glued the object and the "." with no
space (1 . x -> 1.x). In dialects where 1. is a valid number literal, 1. then
re-lexes as a number and swallows the operator, so the output re-parses to a
different tree and re-formatting is not idempotent. Insert a space in that case
(as the layout already does to avoid gluing - onto - into a comment).
Identifiers ending in a digit (t1.x) and decimals (1.5) are unaffected.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved SQL formatting for numeric property access, preventing tokens from merging incorrectly.
    • Preserved comments and ensured repeated formatting produces consistent results.
  • Tests

    • Added regression coverage for MySQL formatting involving numeric property access and comments.

Walkthrough

The formatter now inserts a space between a bare integer literal and a following leading-dot token. A MySQL regression test verifies formatting and idempotence for numeric property access with a comment.

Layout.add() separates leading-dot tokens after bare integer literals. The MySQL test verifies the expected output and repeated formatting result.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 7c803

The change is localized to preventing a property-access dot from being joined to a bare integer literal, with focused MySQL coverage. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Add coverage for the two excluded cases.

This test covers 1 . ... and idempotence. It does not verify that identifiers ending in digits and decimal literals remain unchanged. Add cases for t1.x and 1.5, with repeated formatting if idempotence is required.
