Prettier Plugin Go Template

Overview

The prettier-plugin-go-template is a formatter plugin for go template files. It is designed to work with Prettier, requiring it to be installed as a peer dependency. Starting with Prettier 3, auto-discovery has been removed, so configuration is now required. This plugin automatically detects certain file types like .gohtml, .gotmpl, .go.tmpl, .tmpl, .tpl, and .html.tmpl.

To use the plugin with GoHugo and basic .html files, you need to override the parser used in your .prettierrc file. It is recommended to have both Prettier and prettier-plugin-go-template installed globally or locally. If installed globally, you also need to set your VSCode prettier path to the global prettier path.

• Formatter plugin for go template files
• Auto-detection of file types: .gohtml, .gotmpl, .go.tmpl, .tmpl, .tpl, .html.tmpl
