I want to use the Black formatter for my Python files, but not for my JSON settings.
I have these set in my settings.json:
"python.formatting.provider": "black",
"editor.formatOnSave": true,
I have tried to use the --exclude tag by adding the following to settings.json:
"python.formatting.blackArgs": [
"--exclude /*\\.json/"
],
which is equivalent to a commandline call with black --exclude /*\.json/
I also tried
"python.formatting.blackArgs": [
"--exclude /*\\.json/"
],
based on this post: VS Code Python + Black formatter arguments - python.formatting.blackArgs .
However, it is still formatting my settings.json.
Black doesn't format JSON. What's happening is VS Code has it's own included JSON formatter and that's what is formatting your settings.json
. Do you have a setting turned on like "editor.formatOnSave"
turned on? If so then it sounds like you want to scope it to just Python files, eg:
"[python]": {
"editor.formatOnSave": true
}
You can also disable the formatting for JSON, by:
"json.format.enable": false
Or you can also limit the formatting to python files, by adding this setting in the settings.json file:
"[python]": {
"editor.formatOnSave": true
}
Black does format JSON and for me, broke it:
╰─➤ black proj/
reformatted proj/schema.json
All done! ✨ 🍰 ✨
1 file reformatted.
╰─➤ git diff proj/schema.json | wc -l
