Autoformat removes the extra spaces after function params

StuardoRodriguez

So, I have this code:

Route::prefix('folders')->group(function() {
    Route::get('export',            [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'exportAll']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/tree',   [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'tree']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/log',    [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'log']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/export', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'export']);
});

The extra spacing after the comma of the first param, is to align the [Controllers...] BUT the autoformat removes those extra spaces and leaves it as

Route::prefix('folders')->group(function() {
    Route::get('export', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'exportAll']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/tree', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'tree']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/log', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'log']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/export', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'export']);
});

Is it possible to tell the autoformat to ignore those spaces? How?

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we currently don’t have a formatting rule that would preserve this type of alignment.

As a workaround, you can disable the formatter for that specific block, for example:

//@formatter:off
Route::prefix('folders')->group(function() {
    Route::get('export',            [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'exportAll']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/tree',   [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'tree']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/log',    [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'log']);
    Route::get('{folderId}/export', [Controllers\GembaDocs\FoldersController::class, 'export']);
});
//@formatter:on

If there’s more demand for this feature, we can certainly consider adding support for this type of alignment in the future.

Thank you
