JsFormat rule for newline in es6 imports

Question

JsFormat for Sublime Text 3 conforms to most ES6 standards, however, when auto-formatting import statements, it adds a new line to object imports. Here is what the pre-formatted line looks like:

import {func1, func2, func3} from 'some-module';

When auto-formatting, it turns into:

import {
    func1, func2, func3
}
from 'some-module';

Is there a way to disable this kind of formatting?

Answer 1

According to the Github repo, JsFormat uses js-beautify to do the formatting. That project has an open issue where folks complain about various formatting issues, one of them being this very thing. There's a mildly long comment thread which ends in "Pull requests welcome", so unfortunately it looks like there is currently no way to disable this kind of formatting.

Answer 2

On http://jsbeautifier.org/, there is check box to enable this setting: "Preserve inline braces/code blocks".

This feature was added in recent version for the beautifier as the preserve-inline option for brace-style. This will keep inline (all on the same line) brace blocks unchanged. It works as a modifier for the base setting (for example, brace-style: "collapse,preserve-inline").
