4. Extra configuration: If you want to customize the cli arguments for a specific formatter, you can do this from your init.lua script. Example:

config.jsbeautify_args = {"-r", "-s 4", "-p", "-b end-expand"} -- set jsBeautify arguments to indent with spaces.

the default keymap to format the current doc is alt+shift+f the command is formatter:format-doc

Adding a formatter

here is an example formatter:

-- lite-xl 1.16
-- ^^^ lite-xl version tag ^^^
-- for JS Beautify fortmatter
local config = require "core.config"
local formatter = require "plugins.formatter"
 
config.jsbeautify_args = {"-r", "-q", "-s 1", "-t", "-p", "-b end-expand"} -- make sure to keep -r arg if you change this

formatter.add_formatter {
    name = "JS Beautifier",
    file_patterns = {"%.js$"},
    command = "js-beautify $ARGS $FILENAME",
    args = config.jsbeautify_args
}   

a few things to keep in mind

• make sure to add the lite-xl version tag at the top
• make sure to keep the arguments inside config.yourformatter_args
• make sure to set a name
• make sure to add it to the list in readme.md (and keep it alphabetical)
