    For black, I can recommend apheleia. It handles not only black but also all the other common formatters (not only for Python), with custom ones being relatively easy to add.

    1.projectile-kill-buffers or the built-in project-kill-buffers will do that for the current project. You could run that before switching projects.

    3. There might be a way to do this but I'm not sure. Emacs being inherently single threaded probably makes this difficult. But yes, I use M-x (re)compile.

    4. libvterm is the best still imo. You can definitely do multiple instances and there's even different tab modes in Emacs now.

  • Is there any package for automatically insert spaces in c++ code?
    1 project | /r/emacs | 10 Mar 2022
    I use formatters in order to automatically format source code on save. Personally I use apheleia for this. It requires clang-tools installed as it uses clang formatter.

  • JSX return indentation
    1 project | /r/emacs | 11 May 2021
    Generally speaking, emacs does only so much for indenting those mixed mode files, so you might want to use a dedicated JS(X)-formatter (default one would be prettier). I can recommend integrating it using apheleia. It automatically prettifies buffers on save, but without having your cursor jump around like prettier-mode does. It also relies on having the prettier script available (from npm i -g prettier or its likes).

    Perfect, that worked, thank you!

    I thought this could be solved by changing the directory to src/ and then executing that command, but this didn't work.

    This also seems to be an issue with the web app, e.g. the repository for the formatter black is only one white dot https://dep-tree-explorer.vercel.app/api?repo=https://github...

    Ruff is not only much faster, but it is also very convenient to have an all-in-one solution that replaces multiple other widely used tools: Flake8 (linter), isort (imports sorting), Black (code formatter), autoflake, many Flake8 plugins and more. And it has drop-in parity with these tools, so it is really straightforward to migrate from them to Ruff.

    1. LICENSE: This file contains information about the rights and permissions granted to users regarding the use, modification, distribution, and sharing of the software. I already had an MIT License in my project. 2. pyproject.toml: It is a configuration file typically used for specifying build requirements and backend build systems for Python projects. I was already using this file for Black code formatter configuration. 3. README.md: Used as a documentation file for your project, typically includes project overview, installation instructions and optionally, contribution instructions. 4. example_package_YOUR_USERNAME_HERE: One big change I had to face was restructuring my project, essentially packaging all files in this directory. The name of this directory should be what you want to name your package and shoud not conflict with any of the existing packages. Of course, since its a Python Package, it needs to have an __init__.py. 5. tests/: This is where you put all your unit and integration tests, I think its optional as not all projects will have tests. The rest of the project remains as is.
