Maintained Tests Code Quality Deps auto update Release GitHub release (latest SemVer) action-bumpr supported

yellow-button

This GitHub Action runs prettier with reviewdog to improve code checking, formatting and review experience for your codebase. 🐶

The action will first run Prettier, then passing the tool's output to reviewdog for further processing. Depending on the action configuration, reviewdog will then provide a GitHub check either with code annotations or with a Pull Request review.

For full documentation regarding reviewdog, its features and configuration options, please visit the reviewdog repository.

See it in action!

Check out the Sample PR for an example usage of this action.

With github-check or github-pr-check reporters

reviewdog-action-prettier-github-check

If configured with github-check and github-pr-check reporters, the action will report Prettier errors and warnings about unformatted files.

As an example, see what the action reported for the Sample PR here.

With github-pr-review reporter

reviewdog-action-prettier-github-pr-review

If configured with the github-pr-review reporter, the action submits a code review including any errors reported by Prettier; moreover, any formatting changes provided by Prettier are attached as code suggestions.

Check out the Sample PR Conversation tab to see how the action submitted a code review, including both error reports and formatting suggestions.

Usage

This example shows how to configure the action to run on any event occurring on a Pull Request. Reviewdog will report Prettier output messages by opening a code review on the Pull Request which triggered the workflow. Moreover, any formatting changes provided by Prettier will be attached as code suggestions.

name: reviewdog
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  prettier:
    name: runner / prettier
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: EPMatt/reviewdog-action-prettier@v1
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}
          # Change reviewdog reporter if you need
          # [github-pr-check,github-check,github-pr-review].
          # More about reviewdog reporters at
          # https://github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog#reporters
          reporter: github-pr-review
          # Change reporter level if you need
          # [info,warning,error].
          # More about reviewdog reporter level at
          # https://github.com/reviewdog/reviewdog#reporters
          level: warning

FAQs

How do I run the action on a module in a subfolder?

To run the action on a module in a subfolder, you can change the path where the action will run with the workdir input.

Please note that this setup is relevant only if your repository includes a module in a subfolder, declaring prettier as a dependency in its package.json. If you just want to run Prettier in a subfolder, read this FAQ to learn how to include or exclude certain files and folders.

name: reviewdog
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  prettier:
    name: runner / prettier
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: EPMatt/reviewdog-action-prettier@v1
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}
          reporter: github-pr-review
          level: warning
          # The action will look for a package.json file with prettier
          # declared as a dependency located in the "foo" subfolder.
          workdir: foo

How do I run the action on multiple modules?

For more complex setups which require to run the action on multiple modules, run the action once for each single module, changing the workdir and prettier_flags inputs accordingly.

Please note that this setup is relevant only if you have multiple submodules in your repository, each of them declaring prettier as a dependency in their package.json. If you just want to include or exclude certain files and folders from prettier, read this FAQ.

name: reviewdog
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  prettier:
    name: runner / prettier
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      # Run action for the "submodule1" module
      - uses: EPMatt/reviewdog-action-prettier@v1
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}
          reporter: github-pr-review
          level: warning
          # The action will look for a package.json file with prettier
          # declared as a dependency located in the "submodule1" subfolder.
          workdir: submodule1
      # Run action for the "submodule2" module
      - uses: EPMatt/reviewdog-action-prettier@v1
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}
          reporter: github-pr-review
          level: warning
          # The action will look for a package.json file with prettier
          # declared as a dependency located in the "submodule2" subfolder.
          workdir: submodule2

How do I include or exclude certain files and folders?

You can select which files Prettier will run on by either configuring it with a configuration file or by providing the appropriate CLI flags.

When using this action, custom flags can be supplied to Prettier via the prettier_flags input. Please note that the file/dir/glob parameter provided in prettier_flags input is relative to the path provided in the workdir input.

The following example workflow runs when a push is performed on the main branch. The prettier job runs the tool only on .jsx files included in the repository.

name: reviewdog
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  prettier:
    name: runner / prettier
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: EPMatt/reviewdog-action-prettier@v1
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.github_token }}
          reporter: github-pr-review
          level: warning
          # The action will look for a package.json file with prettier
          # declared as a dependency located in the repo root directory.
          workdir: .
          # Run only on files with the .jsx extension
          prettier_flags: *.jsx

Why can't I see the results?

Try looking into the filter_mode options explained here. Prettier errors and warnings will sometimes appear in lines or files that weren't modified by the commit the workflow run is associated with, which instead get filtered with the default added option.

Why does the action require a package.json with prettier declared as a dependency?

The action will automatically install Prettier from a package.json in the workdir path. However, it will not choose a Prettier version and install it for you if package.json is missing in the provided workdir or it does not declare Prettier as a dependency.

Different Prettier versions might result in different formatting; indeed, the official documentation suggests to install an exact version in your project to avoid any formatting changes and issues due to non-identical Prettier versions. Therefore, the action leaves you to decide which version of Prettier should be executed.

The action does not provide a custom input for specifying the Prettier version; instead, you should use a package.json file, and add prettier as a dependency. Please read the Prettier installation guide for more.

Using a package.json file is the most practical and standardized way to declare Node dependencies, and it will also allow you to automate dependency updates and local installation with other tools.
