There is no document formatter for 'django-html'-files installed

Question

In vscode, shift+alt+f for auto-formatting does work in HTML, but not work for Django template file. How can I use autoformatting function in VS code?

Answer 1

The following worked for me:

1. Ensure you have the following in your settings.json (Edit accordingly) :

    "files.associations": {
        "**/*.html": "html",
        "**/templates/*/*.html": "django-html",
        "**/templates/*": "django-html",
        "**/requirements{/**,*}.{txt,in}": "pip-requirements"
    },
    "emmet.includeLanguages": {
        "django-html": "html"
    },

2. Install the beautify extension, then add:

    "beautify.language": {
        "html": [
            "htm",
            "html",
            "django-html"
        ]
    },

3. May require restart (or may not)

Answer 2

If you are using prettier and needs the beautify only for django-html,

{
    "prettier.disableLanguages": ["django-html"],
    "beautify.language": {
      "html": [
        "django-html"
      ]
    },
    "[django-html]": {
      "editor.formatOnSave": true,
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "HookyQR.beautify"
    }
}
