are you using nvm? which OS?

BennyTian commented 7 years ago

macos 10.12.3
npm 3.3.12 node v5.3.0 Python 2.7.10

node installed with tar.gz . and confing NODE_HOME ...

Python 2.7 means Sublime2, I believe this plugin might work better in Sublime3.

Anyway, in both cases you can try setting the esformatter_path in the config

"esformatter_path": null,

point it to your global installation of esformatter, it might do the trick

the above did not seem to work. neither setting the path to null nor to the path of the globally installed npm package

Did you install it with nvm or yarn? I don't use sublime anymore, I don't know how to debug this

maikelmclauflin commented 6 years ago

i installed with npm, tried brew as well to see if linking differently. how does one use nvm? that's a node version manager

piuccio commented 6 years ago

I had a quick look at the code, the plugin tries to run node esformatter --version to verify that the command works. First it tries to use a local version, so you might try npm install esformatter in your project and reset your config.

It also relies on node to work, so you might want to check your PATH variable.

In any case, both this plugin and esformatter are kinda inactive (last commit on esformatter is more than 1 year ago). You might have better luck with prettier maybe?
