GitHub - mapado/prettier-plugin-gherkin: This prettier plugin format your gherkin (.feature files) documents. (original) (raw)

This prettier plugin format your gherkin (.feature files) documents.

Example of changes:

@accountability @accountability-json Feature: accountability accounts should always be good @truncateTables Scenario: Check accountability # Insert fixtures Given the following fixtures files are loaded: | 10.contracts.yml | | 20.wallet.yml | | 30.tax.yml |

    Given I inject the header "authorization" with value 'Bearer some-token'

    And I inject the header "accept" with value "application/json"

I will create an order here

    Given I create an order
        Then the response status code should be 200
        When I pay the latest order
    And I refund the last payment and transaction list with transactions:
            """
        [{"name": "card",
                "credit": 5000
            }
        ]
        """

Will be formatted to:

@accountability @accountability-json Feature: accountability accounts should always be good

@truncateTables
Scenario: Check accountability
    # Insert fixtures
    Given the following fixtures files are loaded:
        | 10.contracts.yml |
        | 20.wallet.yml    |
        | 30.tax.yml       |

    Given I inject the header "authorization" with value 'Bearer some-token'
    And I inject the header "accept" with value "application/json"

    # I will create an order here
    Given I create an order
    Then the response status code should be 200

    When I pay the latest order
    And I refund the last payment and transaction list with transactions:

        [{ "name": "card", "credit": 5000 }]
        """

Options

This plugin has the following options:

forceNewlineBetweenStepBlocks (default: false)

Do force a blank linesbetween steps block:

Given the following block:

Given some context And some other context When I do something Then I should have a result

The default output will be the same as the input (no blank lines).

If you set this option to true, it will force a blank line between the context block and the action block:

Given some context And some other context

When I do something Then I should have a result

If you already have a blank line in your input, it will be kept as-is (even with this option set to false). If you have more than one blank line, it will be reduced to a single blank line.

escapeBackslashes

default to false

If false, all escaped backslash will be transformed to simple backslash : \\\

If true, all backslash will be espaced : \\\

This option may be due to the parser (see issue) and is here because of an inconsistence between the gherkin reference, that said that:

if you need a \, you can escape that with \\.

and the tooling that accept unescaped \, including the cucumber parser used under the hood.

You may want to check your code base and be consistent : if you use simple backslash, keep the default option, if you escape all backslash, then set this option to true.
