Hey everyone 👋, Does anyone know of a complex example configuring KtLint/formatting for Detekt? I’m currently using KtLint only, and am interested on migrating (back) to Detekt and leveraging the KtLint support underneath.

It depends on what “complex example” means for you.

But this is applying ktlint separatelly, so not really helpful for using embedded ktlint in detekt

The template has bot enabled, so you can simply remove the one you’re not interested (in your case

ktlint

).

I’m looking mostly to always enforce return types, not allow any star-imports. And auto-formatting the codebase. I’m not particularly attached to KtLint, but those are my most important rules. Besides that I just follow the Official Kotlin Style Guide.

I’m looking mostly to always enforce return types, not allow any star-imports.

Those are supported by Detekt first party rules IIRC (no need to use the ktlint wrapper).

And auto-formatting the codebase.

That’s not supported by detekt out of the box. You have to use

detekt-formatting

(the ktlint wrapper).

Thanks @gammax! 👍
