Not sure which channel is the appropriate one, but...

# gradle

Not sure which channel is the appropriate one, but I’m experimenting with detekt + kotlinter and I’m trying to achieve the following:
• when I hit cmd+option+L (I’m using a mac) to reformat kotlin code, I want this to match with the format kotlinter uses
• when I run a gradle build, kotlinter should format not only the changed code, but everything
• I want kotlinter result to be applied before detekt is executed (so for example if I have a long line, kotlinter fixes it, so detekt doesn’t fail on that)
From all things (idea, detekt, kotlinter) I’m using the latest versions:
• IDEA 2021.2.2 Ultimate (212.5284.40)
• detekt: 1.18.1
• kotlinter: 3.6.0
I always run into some problems:
• idea autoformat doesn’t match kotlinter format
• kotlinter only formats changed lines not the entire file
Relevant gradle parts:

plugins {
    base

    kotlin("jvm")
    id("java")
    id("idea")
    id("com.google.cloud.tools.jib")
    id("org.jmailen.kotlinter")
    id("org.jetbrains.dokka")
    id("io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt")

    `version-catalog`

    application
}

detekt {
    toolVersion = findProperty("detektVersion") as String
    config = files("config/detekt/detekt.yml")
    buildUponDefaultConfig = true
    autoCorrect = true
    debug = true
}

tasks.detekt {
    dependsOn("formatKotlinMain")
}

// right now it's a single project, but might be a multiproject later
allprojects {
    apply(plugin = "idea")
    apply(plugin = "org.jmailen.kotlinter")
    apply(plugin = "io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt")
}

kotlinter {
    ignoreFailures = false
    indentSize = 4
    reporters = arrayOf("checkstyle", "plain")
    experimentalRules = false
}

Maybe check in #detekt?
