## Summary Follow-up to #28744, same kind of issue in a different place. With `sortTailwindcss` enabled, an assignment whose right side is a Tailwind function call can take two runs to reach a stable output, because the "short argument" check measures the argument's **source** text while the printed text has its whitespace collapsed. Input (`{"sortTailwindcss": {"functions": ["cn"]}}`, default `printWidth: 100`): ```ts const vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa = cn("p-4 flex"); ``` 1st run: ```ts const vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa = cn( "flex p-4", ); ``` 2nd run (also what Prettier + prettier-plugin-tailwindcss prints in one run): ```ts const vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa = cn("flex p-4"); ``` The same happens for `a.b = cn(...)`, `{ key: cn(...) }` and `cn(...).trim()`. ### Cause `is_poorly_breakable_member_or_call_chain` uses `is_short_argument` (Prettier's `isLoneShortArgument`) to check if the only argument is at most `printWidth / 4` wide. For a string or template literal it measures the source text. When the argument is sorted as Tailwind classes, whitespace is collapsed when printed, so the source can be "long" while the printed text is "short". Prettier sees the already rewritten value, so it decides on the printed text. ### Fix When the call is a Tailwind function call and `preserveWhitespace` is off, measure the string / template literal argument after collapsing whitespace (`collapsed_class_list_width`). ### Known limitation: duplicate classes Duplicate removal also shortens the printed text, e.g. `cn("flex flex flex flex flex p-4")` still takes two runs. I didn't handle it, because the sorter removes duplicates only for classes known to Tailwind CSS (`sortClassList` in prettier-plugin-tailwindcss: `if (order !== null) seenClasses.add(cls)`), and the formatter can't know which classes are known while building the IR. The options I could think of: 1. Leave it (this PR). Duplicates are rare in real code, and the result is still valid. It just settles on the 2nd run. 2. Also dedupe all classes when measuring. This fixes the common case but can measure too short when unknown classes are duplicated. 3. Make the sorted text available before the layout decision, which is a larger change to how sorting is batched. I went with 1 to keep this small. If you prefer another approach, please let me know and I'll update it. ## Test - Added cases to `apps/oxfmt/test/api/sort_tailwindcss.test.ts`: - string and template literal arguments with extra whitespace format in one run, and a 2nd run doesn't change the output. These fail without this fix. - `preserveWhitespace: true`: the source text is still measured (unchanged). - `apps/oxfmt`: `vitest run` → 553 passed - `cargo test -p oxc_formatter`, `CARGO_BUILD_WARNINGS=deny cargo lint -p oxc_formatter`, `cargo fmt --check`, `node --run fmt` pass - I also formatted 7 code shapes × 5 class strings × identifier lengths 1–100 twice and compared the runs. All whitespace cases are now stable; only the duplicate-class cases above remain. --------- Co-authored-by: leaysgur <6259812+leaysgur@users.noreply.github.com>
