Describe the bug

Formatter "styler" fails to format the .r/.rmd file.

The package r.nvim has been installed as here, below is the validation:

What is the severity of this bug?

breaking (some functionality is broken)

Steps To Reproduce

Below is my configuration:

  {
    "stevearc/conform.nvim",
    opts = {},
    config = function()
      require("conform").setup {
        formatters_by_ft = {
          lua = { "stylua" },
          -- Conform will run multiple formatters sequentially
          python = { "black" },
          cpp = { "clang-format" },
          bash = { "beautysh" },
          r = { "styler" },
          rmd = { "styler" },
        },
        format_on_save = {
          -- These options will be passed to conform.format()
          timeout_ms = 500,
          lsp_fallback = true,
        },
      }
    end,
    lazy = false,
  },

Expected Behavior

The formatter can format the code/code chunk properly.

My full configuration is here.

Additional context

Thanks very much.

Unfortunately I don't really understand how this formatter works, since it relies on another neovim plugin and isn't just a simple binary command. Maybe @JohnCoene can help debug?

[JohnCoene]

The error originates from R because you are missing the r.nvim package, you need to install it with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("devOpifex/r.nvim")

[RomaLzhih]

Hi. I did install the r.nvim package, as the screenshot shown in the Describe the bug session above.

[JohnCoene]

The error is there is no package called ‘r.nvim’ so there is no such package installed in the environment where you are trying to run the formatter.

Are you running this within an renv environment? Make sure it is installed where your code.

If that does not fix the issue can you please share more about the environment you are running this in?
