Global formatter on macOS - cannot find package 'prettier-plugin-java' about prettier-java

[jtkiesel]

This appears to be an issue with the way Prettier itself loads plugins: prettier/prettier#15141 A workaround is to install the plugin in your home directory instead of globally. That seems to allow Prettier to find the plugin without issue. For example:

npm -g install prettier
cd ~
npm install prettier-plugin-java

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! We should update Prettier Java's README to instruct users to follow the above steps, since apparently installing both Prettier and the plugin globally no longer works (I'm guessing this is an issue with Prettier 3.)
