plugin broken with 3.0.0 prettier release about prettier-plugin-solidity

[Janther]

Hi @dimalinux
--plugin=prettier-plugin-solidity should be enough, can you try?

[Janther]

prettier 3.0.0 no longer loads external plugins automatically, have a look at the release notes.

This means you have to declare it either in the command line, configuration file, or using the plugins option in the API. Here is the documentation. Here is an example.

No new release required.

The PR that you mentioned contains (among other things like testing and CI) the changes for the README to reflect these changes.

Thanks! For anyone else having the same issue. If you installed prettier and prettier-plugin-solidity via npm, you can add this flag to fix the issue:

--plugin="$(npm config get prefix)/lib/node_modules/prettier-plugin-solidity/src/index.js"

That was the first way I tried. It couldn't find the plugin. In case it is part of the puzzle, my NPM install directory is configured like this (bash on Linux): https://github.com/sindresorhus/guides/blob/main/npm-global-without-sudo.md

prettier is in ${HOME}/.npm-packages/bin/prettier and the plugin is in ${HOME}/.npm-packages/lib/node_modules/prettier-plugin-solidity/
