VSCodium + ElixirLS - Format on save not working

Questions / Help
1

I’m working on a new project and am having issues with Elixir LS and VSCodium running mix format on saved code.

VSCodium version 1.61.1
Elixir-LS version 0.8.1
Project OTP version: 23.3.4.4
Project Elixir version: 1.12.1

When I save the file nothing happens (no formatting takes place), here is the output from the extension (no errors). I have editor.formatOnSave set to true.

Any ideas on what may be causing this? Thanks!

Started ElixirLS v0.8.1

Elixir version: "1.12.1 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 22)"

Erlang version: "23"

I also went through the debugging steps listed on the ElixirLS GH page, nothing helped.

Does it format if you manually run “Format Document” from the command menu? And are there any errors in the developer tools (Help → Toggle Developer Tools)?

4

Also in your ElixirLS settings can you set “Elixir LS › Trace: Server” to messages or verbose and post the results after saving or manually formatting.

I don’t know how to say this, but when I went back to VSCodium to retrieve what you asked for, formatting on-save worked. I appreciate your replies, thank you!

Okay, well I’m glad it’s working now!
