Formatting HTML with umlauts

[Harper04]

Hi, thanks for this awesome Plugin!

Unfortunately I have a small Problem:

The Formatter just stops if it sees something like this:

<%= label f_loc, :street,  "Straße", class: ""  %>

This works

<%= label f_loc, :street,  "Strasse", class: ""  %>

So I think non-ascii things like German do not work correctly.

I will check it

Hey, i did some tests with:

<h1>Test</h1>
<div>
  <label><%= label f_loc, :street,  "Straße", class: ""  %></label>
</div>

And it is working fine. May it be some charset config of your VSCode?

[Harper04]

I really don't know. My Charset is utf-8.
Thing is:

• if i run htmlbeautifier from zsh it works
• if I run run htmlbeautifier from a node process (> cp.spawn('htmlbeautifier',['--stop-on-errors','./lib/gram_web/live/bla.html.eex'])) it works!

if I use the extension (btw. elixir ls disabled) it does not work...
I even tried to disable your extension to sanity check this is the right one running the format - which I can confirm.

I have no ideas left.

ok, it is really strange.

And it indicates some issue or miss config within VSCode. Well, can you test it in a fresh new VSCode instance, I mean, with a different user in your machine or in another machine. There are another extension with strange behavior?

[Harper04]

I just tested on another machine.
Big Sur 11.2.3.
No developer tools installed (machine of my wife).
Installed using sudo gem install htmlbeautifier
Installed newest vscode and plug-in using Extension Manager
I even typed the repro by hand

=> Same behavior 🤔

As soon as I use a „ß“ it stops working from inside VSCode. Using htmlbeautifier directly still works. VSCode logs are empty.

It is very strange, Here in my machine I put ß and it don't break... I will do a try changing my machine language to German.

[Harper04]

Language does not seem to an issue. mine is English; hers is German. Maybe the Region Setting? : - /
I am thinking that something is breaking in the pipeline buffer -> node process -> shell command -> htmlbeautifier
