## Setup

At a minimum, you will need to set up some formatters by filetype

```lua
require("conform").setup({
    formatters_by_ft = {
        lua = { "stylua" },
        -- Conform will use the first available formatter in the list
        javascript = { "prettier_d", "prettier" },
        -- Formatters can also be specified with additional options
        python = {
            formatters = { "isort", "black" },
            -- Run formatters one after another instead of stopping at the first success
            run_all_formatters = true,
            -- Don't run these formatters as part of the format_on_save autocmd (see below)
            format_on_save = false
        },
    },
})
```

Then you can use `conform.format()` just like you would `vim.lsp.buf.format()`. For example, to format on save:

```lua
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("BufWritePre", {
    pattern = "*",
    callback = function(args)
        require("conform").format({ buf = args.buf })
    end,
})
```

As a shortcut, conform will optionally set up this format-on-save autocmd for you

```lua
require("conform").setup({
    format_on_save = {
        -- These options will be passed to conform.format()
        timeout_ms = 500,
        lsp_fallback = true,
    },
})
```

See [conform.format()](#formatopts) for more details about the parameters.

To view configured and available formatters, as well as to see the path to the log file, run `:checkhealth conform`
