Prettier plugin to enforce consistent brace style for all control statements.
๐ฅ
## Usage
First install this package as a dev dependency in your package manager of choice:
```shell
npm i prettier-plugin-curly -D
```
You'll then be able to list it as a [Prettier plugin](https://prettier.io/docs/en/plugins.html) in your [Prettier config](https://prettier.io/docs/en/configuration.html):
```json
{
"plugins": ["prettier-plugin-curly"]
}
```
As a result, Prettier will add `{}` curly brackets to control flow statements such as `for`, `if`, and `while`:
```diff
- if (abc) def;
+ if (abc) {
+ def;
+ }
```
### But Why?
Prettier generally does not modify the structure of code: which includes [not enforcing curly brackets](https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/7659) to match [ESLint's `curly` rule](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/curly).
However, enforcing `curly` generally does not modify code runtime behavior, and is often desirable for code consistency and to avoid accidental bugs.
This plugin enforces the equivalent of [`curly`'s `all` option](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/curly#all) at the Prettier level.
