prettier-config-moon

1.2.2 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript

A strict, accessibility-focused Prettier shared configuration from the moonrepo team. Current stable version is 1.2.2, released regularly alongside other moonrepo presets. Key differentiators: enforces tabs over spaces for accessibility, includes arrow parenthesis always, trailing commas, semicolons, single quotes, and spaces for indentation. Minimal dependencies; export is a string reference, not a JavaScript object. Designed for projects using Prettier with Node.js and the moon monorepo toolchain.

Common errors

error Cannot find module 'prettier-config-moon' ↓

cause Package not installed or not resolvable from the configuration file location.

fix

Install the package as a dev dependency: npm install --save-dev prettier-config-moon

error Invalid configuration file: Expected string, got object ↓

cause Trying to require the package and assign its exports to module.exports instead of using the package name string.

fix

Change to: module.exports = 'prettier-config-moon';

error Error: Could not resolve 'prettier-config-moon' from ... ↓

cause Configuration file path is not in a location where Prettier can resolve the module name.

fix

Place the configuration file (e.g., prettier.config.js) in the project root directory.

Warnings

gotcha Config is a string, not an object. Do not require or import it as a JavaScript object. ↓

fix Export the package name as a string: module.exports = 'prettier-config-moon';

gotcha Using tabs for indentation may conflict with projects that expect spaces. ↓

fix Override the tabWidth and useTabs options in your local config if needed.

deprecated Version 1.x is stable; no breaking changes reported, but always check peer dependency versions. ↓

fix Ensure prettier peer dependency is compatible. No specific fix needed.

Install

npm install prettier-config-moon

yarn add prettier-config-moon

pnpm add prettier-config-moon

Imports

default
wrong
```
module.exports = require('prettier-config-moon');
```
correct
```
module.exports = 'prettier-config-moon';
```
The config is a string reference, not a JavaScript object. Common mistake is to require or import it as an object.
prettier/prettier.config
```
module.exports = 'prettier-config-moon';
```
In a .prettierrc.js or prettier.config.js file, export the package name as a string.
.prettierrc
wrong
```
{"extends": "prettier-config-moon"}
```
correct
```
"prettier-config-moon"
```
In JSON .prettierrc, use a plain string, not an 'extends' key. The extends key is not supported by Prettier.
