pre-commit hook does not work if the solution is in a sub directory

[FrancisGauthier]

i use the following .pre-commit-config.yaml file.

The structure of the repository looks like this

• repo

  • .git
  • src
    • solution.sln
  • .pre-commit-config.yaml

  The original repo used to pass solutions from a subdirectory. Looks like it is not possible to pass the solution in an argument with this hook. I get the following error saying that there is no solution found in the directory

Thanks,

Seconded. This is still the case.

You can pass the path to the solution using the entry arguments, modifying the dotnet format command to your needs:

-   repo: local
    hooks:
    #Use dotnet format already installed on your machine
    -   id: dotnet-format
        name: dotnet-format
        language: system
        entry: dotnet format src/solution.sln -v normal --include
        files: ^src/.*
        types_or: ["c#", "vb"]

I case you have several solutions in your repository, you can add several hooks with the files filter, each one running against a particular solution file

-   repo: local
    hooks:
    #Use dotnet format already installed on your machine
    -   id: dotnet-format
        name: dotnet-format
        language: system
        entry: dotnet format src/project1/solution.sln -v normal --include
        files: ^src/project1/.*
        types_or: ["c#", "vb"]
    -   id: dotnet-format
        name: dotnet-format
        language: system
        entry: dotnet format src/project2/solution.sln -v normal --include
        files: ^src/project2/.*
        types_or: ["c#", "vb"]

This way files from src/project1/ will be checked with dotnet format src/project1/solution.sln and files from src/project2/ will be checked with dotnet format src/project2/solution.sln

$ git commit src/project1/MyApp/Test.cs
dotnet-format............................................................Passed
dotnet-format........................................(no files to check)Skipped
