.clang-format ignored

[skrat]

First of all, thank you for this, finally a workable dev environment.

I configured my .clang-format with:

ColumnLimit:     100

but since I switched to esp32.nvim, this seems to be ignored. Any hints on how to bring this back?

I don’t think esp32.nvim is intentionally overriding .clang-format.

The plugin only provides the ESP-IDF LSP config and does not set a custom formatting style. The --fallback-style=llvm flag is only used when clang-format/clangd cannot find a .clang-format file, so it should not override an existing one.

That suggests one of these is happening instead:

• a different formatter is being used
• the .clang-format file is not on the file’s parent path
• formatting behavior changed because you switched to the ESP clangd setup

If you can share how you trigger formatting and where your .clang-format file is located relative to the source file, that should make it easier to narrow down.
