Prettier Uitk Format

Prettier — format UXML and USS

When to use

• User wants *.uxml or *.uss files formatted, or a directory run through Prettier.
• Before handoff or before commit when UXML/USS is in scope (format-before-handoff-and-commit.mdc).

Preconditions

• Prettier + @prettier/plugin-xml installed via npm install at repo root (package.json).
• Cursor extension: esbenp.prettier-vscode — Format Document / format on save (.vscode/settings.json maps *.uss → CSS).
• Run from griddungeon-game root (folder with Assets/ and package.json).

Commands

From repo root:

npm install
npx prettier --write path/to/File.uxml
npx prettier --write path/to/File.uss
npx prettier --write "Assets/UI/**/*.{uxml,uss}"
npm run format:uitk
npm run format:uitk:check

Config: .prettierrc — UXML: parser: xml, 4-space indent; USS: parser: css, 4-space indent.

Agent workflow

1. Confirm root: griddungeon-game (parent of Assets/).
2. If node_modules/ is missing: npm install once.
3. Format changed paths only unless the user asked for the whole tree:

   npx prettier --write path/to/Changed.uxml path/to/Changed.uss
   

4. Re-run git diff after formatting.
5. If npm install or npx prettier fails, report it; do not substitute another formatter.

Notes

• Prettier formats .uxml and .uss only in this repo — not .cs or YAML.
• USS uses Unity-specific properties (-unity-*); Prettier treats files as CSS — valid USS should still parse.
• CLI output should match Format Document with the Prettier extension on the same files.
• Windows PowerShell: use ; instead of && when chaining commands.
