Optional-chaining / null coalescing

[bluefangs]

• Operating System (+Version): Ubuntu 20.04
• VS Code Version: 1.50.0
• beautify Version: 1.5.0

VS Code settings:

"beautify.config": {
		"indent_size": 4,
		"indent_char": "\t",
	},
"beautify.language": {
		"js": {
			"type": [
				"javascript",
				"json",
				"jsonc"
			],
			"filename": [
				".jshintrc",
				".jsbeautifyrc"
			]
		},
		"css": [
			"css",
			"less",
			"scss"
		],
		"html": [
			"htm",
			"html"
		]
	}

Expected results

When there is chaining or nullish coalescing involved, do not put spaces inbetween '?'

let a = {
    b: {
        c: 1
    }
};
var d = a?.b?.c || 0;

Actual results

Space is added inbetween the '?' causing syntax error.

let a = {
    b: {
        c: 1
    }
};
var d = a ? .b ? .c || 0;

Similar issue : beautifier/js-beautify#1530

Thanks.

I see beautifier/js-beautify#1779 and beautifier/js-beautify#1794 both have been merged, and released in js-beautify 1.11.0

Does it mean this extension need to upgrade its dependency and do a release?

Has the problem been solved?

I see that this is closed but 'm still dealing with this issue. When I run the beautify command on a file all of my optional chaining expressesions add a space before and after the ? question mark causing syntax errors

I am also having this problem using Beautify 1.5.0 in VSCode... How can I fix this other than disabling Beautify?

what i had to do was navigate to the folder where the extension is and run npm update Google what directory vs code is in and then look for a subdirectory of extensions/hookyqr.beautify

[moscoso]

The fix to this is just HookyQR updating the beautify-js dependency to a newer version that fixed this issue .... it takes less then 30 seconds

I appreciate the suggestion, but it's too much trouble. I just bailed on Beautify and switched to Prettier. Seems like maybe Beautify doesn't have it's stuff together. Idk.

I'm still heaving this issue. I run the npm update as suggested but id didn't solve the issue.
Does anyone know how to stop Beautify to add space in JS Nullish Coalescing (?? -> ? ?) ?

@moscoso 's solution worked perfectly. I did have to reload vscode for it to work though.

Yep, just drop into ~/.vscode/extensions/hookyqr.beautify-1.5.0, update package.json and run npm update -- I relaunched VScode to be sure and worked perfectly.
