library16.4.1jsnpmunverified

Prettier-standard is a CLI tool that combines prettierx (a prettier fork) for code formatting with eslint preconfigured with the standard ruleset. Current version 16.4.1 (requires Node >=8) wraps prettierx and eslint to format and optionally lint JavaScript/TypeScript/CSS files. It simplifies setup by eliminating separate eslint config for whitespace, and provides flags like --staged, --changed, --since for git-aware formatting. Since v9.0.0, it uses .prettierrc for config instead of .eslintrc, and v12.0.0 was a complete rewrite without spawning subprocesses, improving speed. It is well-suited for teams wanting standard-compliant code with minimal configuration, but note that it uses prettierx, not upstream prettier, and may have slight formatting differences.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import prettierStandard from 'prettier-standard'

✗ const prettierStandard = require('prettier-standard')

The package is a CLI tool; programmatic usage is not officially supported. If you need to use it as a module, prefer ESM import.

run

✓ import { run } from 'prettier-standard'

✗ import run from 'prettier-standard'

If you import programmatically, the main function is named 'run'. Check the source for exports.

formatFiles

✓ import { formatFiles } from 'prettier-standard'

✗ const { formatFiles } = require('prettier-standard')

Available since v12.0.0. Use named import for programmatic access.

Shows typical CLI usage: global/local install, formatting with linting, staged files, and git-aware formatting.

// Install globally or locally npm install -g prettier-standard // Format all files in project and lint prettier-standard --lint // Format only staged files (for precommit hooks) prettier-standard --staged // Format changed lines since master prettier-standard --changed --since master // Use as a lint-staged step in package.json "lint-staged": { "*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx,css}": ["prettier-standard --lint"] }

Debug

Known issues

breakingSince v9.0.0, prettier-standard no longer passes code through 'standard --fix'. It uses prettierx instead.

fix

If you relied on standard --fix behavior, you may need to check formatting differences. Custom configuration now goes in .prettierrc, not .eslintrc.

affects: >=9.0.0

breakingSince v9.0.0, custom configuration happens through .prettierrc instead of .eslintrc. Output matches prettier output.

fix

Move any eslint-based formatting config to .prettierrc. Extend 'prettier' and 'prettier/standard' in .eslintrc for linting.

affects: >=9.0.0

gotcha--lines flag is experimental; prettier has known issues with range formatting (prettier#4926, prettier#6428).

fix

Avoid using --lines if possible. Use --changed or --staged instead.

affects: >=13.0.0

gotchaThis package uses prettierx, not upstream prettier. Formatting may differ slightly from prettier.

fix

If you need exact prettier formatting, use prettier directly and configure eslint separately.

affects: >=9.0.0
