Unable to run prettierd run with a prettierrc configuration.

[niyabits]

Prettierd runs fine when I provide no .prettierrc.json, but when I add the file in my root I get the following error -

C:\Users\yashg\AppData\Local\nvim>prettierd test\foo.ts
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "list" argument must be an instance of Array. Received null
    at Function.concat (buffer.js:550:11)
    at Object.readFileAfterClose (internal/fs/read_file_context.js:51:23)
    at tick (internal/fs/read_file_context.js:105:28)
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:79:21) {
  code: 'ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE'
}

I am using Neovim in Windows along with efm-language-server
My configuration of prettier looks like -

{formatCommand = "prettierd ${INPUT}", formatStdin = true}

Any idea?

🤔 this should work, or at least it used to. I'll dig into it, but can you share your prettier config to help reproducing the error message? Thanks!

Maybe it's a windows thing?

{
  "endOfLine": "lf",
  "semi": true,
  "singleQuote": false,
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "trailingComma": "es5"
}

Thanks for sharing the config, I'll investigate it later this week.

Any fix for this? i'm having the exact same problem on Windows 11.

I haven't had a chance to look into this yet 😞 I don't have access to a Windows machine, but my plan was to try to reproduce it with GitHub Actions or something like that.

Let me start by expressing my thanks for making this available @fsouza.

Also ran into this issue. It used to all work fine but now I can't get it to work on Windows 10 (with or without config file).

It seems to fail on this function: readFile(process.stdin.fd, { encoding: "utf-8" }).

node .\dist\prettierd.js "asgasg"
action: INVOKE_CORE_D
cmdOrFilename: asgasg
args: [ 'asgasg' ]
TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "list" argument must be an instance of Array. Received null
    at Function.concat (node:buffer:536:3)
    at Object.readFileAfterClose (node:internal/fs/read_file_context:56:23)
    at tick (node:internal/fs/read_file_context:115:9)
    at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21) {
  code: 'ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE'
}

Not really sure where to go from here. Any hints would be appreciated.

Is this maybe related? nodejs/node#19831

EDIT: If I change the efm-langserver command to:
{ formatCommand = 'prettierd ${INPUT}', formatStdin = true }
instead of:
{ formatCommand = 'prettierd --stdin-filepath ${INPUT}', formatStdin = true }
everything works fine.

@jvmiert is "asgasg" a file? Can you try running it on an actual js file? Something like prettierd file.js <file.js

[jvmiert]

Ah sorry, inputting a valid file yields the exact same result.

[fsouza]

Can you share the output of when you call it with valid files? The output you shared is complaining about "asgasg" being an invalid argument.

@jvmiert I'll try to spin up a windows vm to investigate this. Sorry for the back and forth.

[JerryLiao26]

@fsouza Are there any updates on this issue? Thanks

[fsouza]

@JerryLiao26 hey, I haven't been able to work on this yet, apologies :( No idea either on when I'll be able to spin up a Windows VM and investigate the issue, but I'm hoping I'll be able to do something like that over the next week or two.

@fsouza Really appreciated! I've managed to make prettierd work by using other lsp plugins but I'm willing to provide help if you need some more information

Not sure if this is related but I ran into a similar issue earlier today. I think I upgraded it while an old prettierd server was still running. After running prettierd stop and trying again it worked.

can I double-like this post, because it helped me yet again.
