`formatter`

The core dependency you need to support formatting services.

Provides a service API that you can register by scope name to send Async formatting edits.

Provides unified keyboard shortcuts
Takes care of command resolution to the correct scope and therefore provider
Takes care of applying the code edits in a manner that they can be easily undone (transactional)

Current Status - DEPRECATED in favor of Atom IDE

We're not maintaining this package anymore, because Atom IDE has more features and is very well maintained.

Providers

Keybindings

Default (inspired from IntelliJ):

'atom-text-editor':
  'alt-ctrl-l': 'formatter:format-code'
  'alt-cmd-l': 'formatter:format-code'

API for Providers

Given you understand these simple concepts:

/** 0 based */
interface EditorPosition {
    line: number;
    col: number;
}

interface CodeEdit {
    start: EditorPosition;
    end: EditorPosition;
    newText: string;
}

interface Selection {
    start: EditorPosition;
    end: EditorPosition;
}

The Provider really needs to be a FormatterProvider. It needs to provide a selector for which it will work. And then Either of the two:

a getCodeEdits function that gets passed in FormattingOptions and returns a bunch of CodeEdit[] or a promise thereof. This method is preferred as we do not create a string.
a getNewText function that gets passed in text and then returns formatted text. This is slower as we create and pass around strings.

interface CodeEditOptions {
    editor: AtomCore.IEditor;

    // only if there is a selection
    selection: Selection;
}

interface FormatterProvider {
    selector: string;
    disableForSelector?: string;

    // One of:
    getCodeEdits: (options: CodeEditOptions) => CodeEdits[] | Promise<CodeEdit[]>;
    getNewText: (oldText: string) => string | Promise<string>;
}

Sample Provider

package.json:

"providedServices": {
  "formatter": {
    "versions": {
      "1.0.0": "provideFormatter"
    }
  }
}

Providers:

Sample Coffeescript

module.exports = FormatterCoffeescript =
  activate: (state) ->
    return

  provideFormatter: ->
    {
      selector: '.source.coffee',
      getNewText: (text) =>
        CF = require 'coffee-formatter'
        lines = text.split('\n');
        resultArr = [];
        for curr in lines
          p = CF.formatTwoSpaceOperator(curr);
          p = CF.formatOneSpaceOperator(p);
          p = CF.shortenSpaces(p);
          resultArr.push(p);
        result = resultArr.join('\n')
        return result
    }

Sample TypeScript

export function provideFormatter() {
    var formatter: FormatterProvider;
    formatter = {
        selector: '.source.ts',
        getCodeEdits: (options: FormattingOptions): Promise<CodeEdit[]> => {
            var filePath = options.editor.getPath();
            if (!options.selection) {
                return parent.formatDocument({ filePath: filePath }).then((result) => {
                    return result.edits;
                });
            }
            else {
                return parent.formatDocumentRange({
                  filePath: filePath,
                  start: options.selection.start,
                  end: options.selection.end })
                    .then((result) => {
                        return result.edits;
                    });
            }
        }
    };
    return formatter;
}
