Editor plugin and .exe formats differently

[suumpmolk]

When working on adding a Github Action for GDScript-formatter to my project it complained about files not being formatted. I noticed that if I run the formatter myself (me on Windows, Github Action on Ubuntu) it differs from how it is formatted by the plugin in the editor for certain files.

Example (Editor):

extends Node


func _ready() -> void:
	randomize()

Example (Powershell / Github Action):

extends Node

func _ready() -> void:
	randomize()

Notice the extra line between extends and func.

When running in Powershell/cmd I'm using the same .exe that the editor is.

This does not happen in files where there are variables between the extends and the first func

Any ideas what's going on?

Could it be that the versions used were not the same between desktop and the godot addon?

Here on the latest version, 0.20.1, on different machines, the behavior is consistent. I've tested both using my system-wide install in Godot and using the "install or update formatter" command to get a copy specifically bound to the Godot editor.

Could you please try updating the formatter from the Godot add-on and let me know if the issue persists? When you run the command to update the formatter, you see it download and install version 0.20.1.

Hi, thank you for looking into this.

On my machine I was using the same executable file that the editor uses when running it in cmd. I tested it out on another machine I had with the same Godot version and Plugin version and I did not encounter the issue there so I started troubleshooting.

I noticed that the reorder_code (gdquest_gdscript_formatter/reorder_code) flag that you can set in the Editor Settings was different between the two and was able to get rid of the issue on my main machine if I disabled reorder_code.

Can you reproduce it if you enable reorder_code?

Edit: tested the flag with cmd

>>%USERPROFILE%\Appdata/Local/Godot/gdquest/gdscript-formatter.exe button_effects.gd
Formatted button_effects.gd

>>%USERPROFILE%\Appdata/Local/Godot/gdquest/gdscript-formatter.exe --reorder-code button_effects.gd
Formatted button_effects.gd

>>%USERPROFILE%\Appdata/Local/Godot/gdquest/gdscript-formatter.exe button_effects.gd
Formatted button_effects.gd

>>%USERPROFILE%\Appdata/Local/Godot/gdquest/gdscript-formatter.exe --reorder-code button_effects.gd
Formatted button_effects.gd

It jumps between one and two lines for me.
