OpenCode V2 accepts formatter configuration, but it does not yet include a
formatter runtime. File writes and edits are not automatically formatted.
<Warning>
V2 currently has no built-in formatters. The built-in formatter list and
automatic post-edit formatting documented for V1 do not apply to V2.
</Warning>
## Configuration
The `formatter` field accepts a boolean or an object keyed by formatter name:
```jsonc title="opencode.jsonc"
{
"$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
"formatter": {
"prettier": {
"disabled": false,
"command": ["prettier", "--write", "$FILE"],
"environment": {
"NODE_ENV": "development"
},
"extensions": [".js", ".jsx", ".ts", ".tsx"]
}
}
}
```
This example is valid V2 configuration, but V2 does not currently execute the
command.
Each named formatter entry supports these optional fields:
| Field | Type | Current V2 behavior |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `disabled` | `boolean` | Accepted, but there is no runtime formatter to enable or disable. |
| `command` | `string[]` | Accepted as an argument array, but not executed. |
| `environment` | `Record<string, string>` | Accepts string environment variable names and values, but they are not applied. |
| `extensions` | `string[]` | Accepted without extension-specific validation, but files are not matched against it. |
All entry fields are optional. The schema therefore also accepts an empty entry
such as `"prettier": {}`.
## Enable and disable
The schema accepts all of the following forms:
```jsonc
// Omit `formatter`, or use false, when formatting is not requested.
{
"formatter": false
}
```
```jsonc
// Reserved for enabling all built-ins once a V2 runtime provides them.
{
"formatter": true
}
```
```jsonc
// Configure named entries or mark one as disabled.
{
"formatter": {
"prettier": { "disabled": true },
"custom": {
"command": ["custom-fmt", "$FILE"],
"extensions": [".foo"]
}
}
}
```
At present, omitted, `false`, `true`, and object forms have the same runtime
result: V2 runs no formatter. `disabled` is retained as configuration data but
does not control an executable formatter.
## Commands and placeholders
`command` is an array of strings, not a shell command string. `$FILE` is the V1
file-path placeholder and is often retained in migrated configuration. V2 does
not currently substitute `$FILE` or define another formatter placeholder.
Likewise, V2 does not currently use `extensions` to select commands, merge
`environment` into a child process, discover formatter executables or project
configuration, or run multiple matching formatters. These behaviors will only
be available after a V2 formatter runtime is implemented.
