Is there an alternative solution for formatting xmake.lua files?

My current workaround is to switch the file association to Lua, do the format, then switch back to Xmake, but this isn't very user friendly and doesn't work with auto-format on save.

The issue I'm having, and I assume OP had as well, is that the format functionality doesn't work for xmake.lua files when the language mode is set to xmake.

When I attempt it I get an alert saying there is no formatter available and it directs me to look on the marketplace.

Manually specifying the default formatter for [xmake] to any of the existing [lua] formatters does not work because they do not support the "xmake" language. Hence the need to shuffle back and forth to the lua language mode.

Apologies if this was unrelated to the original comment, I'm relying on Google translate.

The best way is to write our own formatter based on antlr4, like https://github.com/Koihik/LuaFormatter , but I have no time to do that.

[CodeAnxiety]

The existing lua formatter plugins work well enough, the issue stems from the vscode-xmake plugin registering xmake.lua as a different language ([xmake] instead of [lua]). This prevents vscode from recognizing those lua formatters as applicable to xmake.lua files.

You have to manually change the file association to work around it.

[waruqi]

We cannot set it to the Lua language. Otherwise, we cannot set the xmake icon independently, and there is no automatic completion of xmake API.

I'll try forking https://github.com/Koihik/vscode-lua-format and changing the language to [xmake]. That might be the easiest route.
