How to not always auto format by default

[ppcano]

Thanks for this plugin, it works great. I have a question or feature request:

I installed the plugin, and it autoformats all the different JS projects I am working on, but this is not always my desired behavior, I often create PRs on other projects which don't expect its code to be "prettified" but those become also autoformatted by default.

let g:prettier#autoformat = 0
autocmd BufWritePre *.js,*.jsx,*.mjs,*.ts,*.tsx Prettier

I don't know which is the best workaround or feature request. May it be better if the plugin only format projects with a .prettierrc configuration file?

Hi @ppcano

The reason for the auto-format be enabled by default is due to this line on your .vimrc

let g:prettier#autoformat = 0
autocmd BufWritePre *.js,*.jsx,*.mjs,*.ts,*.tsx Prettier

If you would like to not have autoformat enabled you should remove this autocmd BufWritePre *.js,*.jsx,*.mjs,*.ts,*.tsx Prettier as that is saying to vim that whenever you intend to save a file it should format it before you do so

The let g:prettier#autoformat = 0 flag is used to control vim-prettier bespoke behaviour of autoformatting files that have the pragma @format on top of it.
