A Prettier plugin that formats Ruby code using the Syntax Tree gem, bringing consistent style to Ruby projects.
Prettier Ruby Plugin is a Prettier plugin that formats Ruby code. It brings Prettier's opinionated code formatting to the Ruby ecosystem, automatically styling Ruby files to a consistent standard. It solves the problem of inconsistent code style in Ruby projects by integrating with Prettier's workflow.
Ruby developers and teams using Prettier for other languages who want to extend consistent formatting to their Ruby codebases, especially those already invested in the Prettier ecosystem.
Developers choose this plugin to unify their code formatting across languages under Prettier's tooling, leveraging the robust Syntax Tree gem for Ruby-specific formatting while maintaining Prettier's familiar configuration and editor integrations.

Plug-and-play with existing Prettier setups, supporting all Prettier options like printWidth and tabWidth, as detailed in the configuration section and editor integrations.
Built on the Syntax Tree gem, a mature Ruby formatter, ensuring accurate and consistent code transformations, demonstrated by the complex obfuscated code example in the README.
Includes a RuboCop config file to disable overlapping rules, allowing teams to use both tools without conflicts, as explained in the 'Usage with RuboCop' section.
Works with Prettier's editor integrations like VSCode for on-save formatting, enhancing developer experience with clear setup instructions provided.
Requires both Node.js (v16+) and Ruby (v2.7+) to be installed and maintained, adding complexity to setup and environment management, as noted in the getting started guide.
Uses a background Ruby server to communicate with Prettier, which can introduce latency and resource usage compared to native Ruby formatters like Syntax Tree alone.
Being opinionated, it offers fewer formatting options than RuboCop and relies on Syntax Tree's feature set, which might not cover all edge cases or allow fine-grained style tweaks.
