[DEPRECATED] Prettier Swift Plugin - WARNING: The AST parser is not stable yet

DEPRECATED

prettier/plugin-swift is deprecated. It hasn’t been updated since early 2018, and the Swift community seems to have moved towards Apple’s swift-format and Nick Lockwood’s SwiftFormat instead.

We hope to someday have plugins for one or both of these tools, but the Prettier team has no current plans to develop such an integration. If you do make something, let us know by opening an issue on the main Prettier repository, and we will consider adding a link to this README.

Swift Plugin for the Opinionated Code Formatter

What does it do?

⚠️ Warning ⚠️ This plugin might eat your homework in its early stage. It also depends on Swift's lib/Syntax which is in flux. Please stage or commit your code before performing any in-place formatting.

You can check out how it formatted Artsy's Eidolon.

Prerequisites

You need one of the following:

1. A snapshot from March 30, 2018 or later,
2. a recent manual build from Swift's master, or
3. Swift 4.2 (once it's available as a beta or released completely).

Assuming you picked (1) please follow the installation instructions, which recommend updating your PATH at the end:

TOOLCHAIN=swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2018-03-30-a.xctoolchain
export PATH=/Library/Developer/Toolchains/${TOOLCHAIN}/usr/bin/:"${PATH}"

Alternatively you can pass the full path to the swiftc binary via the environment variable PRETTIER_SWIFT_SWIFTC:

TOOLCHAIN=swift-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2018-03-30-a.xctoolchain
export PRETTIER_SWIFT_SWIFTC=/Library/Developer/Toolchains/${TOOLCHAIN}/usr/bin/swiftc
