Unclear error message for `mix format`
moogle19 opened this issue · comments
Environment
Make sure you are using the latest LiveView and Dashboard versions before continuing.
- Elixir version (elixir -v): 1.14.1
- Phoenix version (mix deps): none
- Phoenix LiveView version (mix deps): 0.18.0
- Phoenix Dashboard version (mix deps): master
- Operating system: macOS
Actual behavior
mix format fails with: ** (Mix) Unknown dependency :phoenix given to :import_deps in the formatter configuration. The dependency is not listed in your mix.exs for environment :dev
Expected behavior
mix format should format the code.
Forgot to run mix deps.get, but with an explicit dependency the error message (** (Mix) Unavailable dependency :phoenix given to :import_deps in the formatter configuration. The dependency cannot be found in the file system, please run "mix deps.get" and try again) is a bit clearer.
Not sure if this is an issue or not.
I will improve the error message on Elixir side, thank you!
