# Palantir Java Format
_A modern, lambda-friendly, 120 character Java formatter._
- [Eclipse plugin](https://github.com/palantir/palantir-java-format/tree/develop/eclipse_plugin)
- [IntelliJ plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13180-palantir-java-format)
- [Gradle plugin](#palantir-java-format-gradle-plugin)
- [Spotless](#spotless)
It is based on the excellent [google-java-format](https://github.com/google/google-java-format), and benefits from the work of all the [original authors](https://github.com/google/google-java-format/graphs/contributors). palantir-java-format is available under the same [Apache 2.0 License](./LICENSE).
## Upsides of automatic formatting
- reduce 'nit' comments in code reviews, allowing engineers to focus on the important logic rather than bikeshedding about whitespace
- bot-authored code changes can be auto-formatted to a highly readable style (we use [refaster](https://errorprone.info/docs/refaster) and [error-prone](https://errorprone.info/docs/patching) heavily)
- increased consistency across all repos, so contributing to other projects feels familiar
- reduce the number builds that trivially fail checkstyle
- easier to onboard new devs
## Downsides of automatic formatting
- if you don't like how the formatter laid out your code, you may need to introduce new functions/variables
- the formatter is not as clever as humans are, so it can sometimes produce less readable code (we want to fix this where feasible)
Many other languages have already adopted formatters enthusiastically, including typescript (prettier), go (gofmt), rust (rustfmt).
## Motivation & examples
(1) google-java-format output:
```java
private static void configureResolvedVersionsWithVersionMapping(Project project) {
project.getPluginManager()
.withPlugin(
"maven-publish",
plugin -> {
project.getExtensions()
.getByType(PublishingExtension.class)
.getPublications()
.withType(MavenPublication.class)
.configureEach(
publication ->
publication.versionMapping(
mapping -> {
mapping.allVariants(
VariantVersionMappingStrategy
::fromResolutionResult);
}));
});
}
```
(1) palantir-java-format output:
```java
private static void configureResolvedVersionsWithVersionMapping(Project project) {
project.getPluginManager().withPlugin("maven-publish", plugin -> {
project.getExtensions()
.getByType(PublishingExtension.class)
.getPublications()
.withType(MavenPublication.class)
.configureEach(publication -> publication.versionMapping(mapping -> {
mapping.allVariants(VariantVersionMappingStrategy::fromResolutionResult);
}));
});
}
```
(2) google-java-format output:
```java
private static GradleException notFound(
String group, String name, Configuration configuration) {
String actual =
configuration.getIncoming().getResolutionResult().getAllComponents().stream()
.map(ResolvedComponentResult::getModuleVersion)
.map(
mvi ->
String.format(
"\t- %s:%s:%s",
mvi.getGroup(), mvi.getName(), mvi.getVersion()))
.collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));
// ...
}
```
(2) palantir-java-format output:
```java
private static GradleException notFound(String group, String name, Configuration configuration) {
String actual = configuration.getIncoming().getResolutionResult().getAllComponents().stream()
.map(ResolvedComponentResult::getModuleVersion)
.map(mvi -> String.format("\t- %s:%s:%s", mvi.getGroup(), mvi.getName(), mvi.getVersion()))
.collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));
// ...
}
```
## Optimised for code review
Even though PJF sometimes inlines code more than other formatters, reducing what we see as unnecessary breaks that don't help code comprehension, there are also cases where it will split code into more lines too, in order to improve clarity and code reviewability.
One such case is long method chains. Whereas other formatters are content to completely one-line a long method call chain if it fits, it doesn't usually produce a very readable result:
```java
var foo = SomeType.builder().thing1(thing1).thing2(thing2).thing3(thing3).build();
```
To avoid this edge case, we employ a limit of 80 chars for chained method calls, such that _the last method call dot_ must come before that column, or else the chain is not inlined.
```java
var foo = SomeType.builder()
.thing1(thing1)
.thing2(thing2)
.thing3(thing3)
.build();
```
## Palantir Java format Gradle plugin
You should apply this plugin to all projects where you want your java code formatted, e.g.
```groovy
buildscript {
dependencies {
classpath 'com.palantir.javaformat:gradle-palantir-java-format:'
}
}
allprojects {
apply plugin: 'com.palantir.java-format'
}
```
Applying this automatically configures IntelliJ, whether you run `./gradlew idea`
or import the project directly from IntelliJ, to use the correct version of the formatter
when formatting java code.
`./gradlew format` can be enabled by using the [com.palantir.baseline-format](https://github.com/palantir/gradle-baseline#compalantirbaseline-format) Gradle plugin.
## Spotless
- See [integration in Spotless Gradle plugin](https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/tree/main/plugin-gradle#palantir-java-format).
- See [integration in Spotless Maven plugin](https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/tree/main/plugin-maven#palantir-java-format).
## IntelliJ plugin
A
[palantir-java-format IntelliJ plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13180)
is available from the plugin repository. To install it, go to your IDE's
settings and select the `Plugins` category. Click the `Marketplace` tab, search
for the `palantir-java-format` plugin, and click the `Install` button.
The plugin will be disabled by default on new projects, but as mentioned [above](#compalantirjava-format-gradle-plugin),
if using the `com.palantir.java-format` gradle plugin, it will be recommended
in IntelliJ, and automatically configured.
To manually enable it in the current project, go
to `File→Settings...→palantir-java-format Settings` (or `IntelliJ
IDEA→Preferences...→Other Settings→palantir-java-format Settings` on macOS) and
check the `Enable palantir-java-format` checkbox.
To enable it by default in new projects, use `File→Other Settings→Default
Settings...`.
When enabled, it will replace the normal `Reformat Code` action, which can be
triggered from the `Code` menu or with the Ctrl-Alt-L (by default) keyboard
shortcut.
### Running a pre-release version of the IntelliJ plugin
1. Clone this repo
2. run `./gradlew :idea-plugin:build`
3. In IntelliJ, install a plugin from disk. Build artifacts are located in `./idea-plugin/build/distributions/`
## Future works
- [ ] preserve [NON-NLS markers][] - these are comments that are used when implementing NLS internationalisation, and need to stay on the same line with the strings they come after.
