Prettier format a json file

Question

I have a unformatted json file that gets stored in my application with the following structure

src
 /forms
   /test
     - abc.json

I am using husky and lint-staged to make use of prettier and linting on pre-commit. The configuration resides in my package.json as following

  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "pre-commit": "lint-staged --relative",
      "pre-push": "tsc"
    }
  },
  "lint-staged": {
    "src/**/*.{ts, json}": [
      "prettier --write",
      "eslint --fix"
    ]
  },
  ....
  ..

But for some reason the abc.json file never gets formatted when I push my code to github. What am I missing?

Do your .ts files get formatted? I think the glob pattern is `src/**/\*.{ts, json}` instead of `src/**/*.{ts, json}` — Tyress, Jan 07 '22 at 01:27
@RRP Did you at all try removing src and considering all ts and json files for formatting ? `**/*.{ts,json,}` — Vipulw, Jan 15 '22 at 10:46
@Vipulw yep tried that as well still no luck, the .json file just doesn't get formatted — RRP, Jan 16 '22 at 23:46
I am curious how to use node to not prettier a json file, namely compact a nice prettier json file to one single line. — Leslie Wong, Nov 10 '22 at 23:06
Resolved. UglifyJS.minify(jsonCode, { parse: 'spidermonkey', expression: true }); — Leslie Wong, Nov 10 '22 at 23:34

There's an error in your glob pattern. Patterns within curly braces should only be delimited by a comma

You have:

"src/**/*.{ts, json}" \

It should be:

"src/**/*.{ts,json}"
