Source code for route file getting modified by the CLI about location

[bswan0002]

An easy solution for this use-case would be to use prettier and configure a script to run prettier immediately following tsr generate in package.json:

"scripts": {
  "generate-and-format": "tsr generate && prettier --write 'src/[yourRoutesDirectory]/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}'"
}

Then any time you'd run tsr generate you can instead run npm run generate-and-format to achieve the desired formatting.

EDIT: this might be unnecessary advice. Looking at the source code schiller-manuel linked, it looks like prettier config is already honored.

TypeScript has no idea what file you’re in, or at least doesn’t expose it for use as a type.

[tannerlinsley]

It needs both. The path in the type is the key to getting the routes parent types.

#894 (released in v1.0.6) adds a configuration option for the quote style.

Currently it's hardcoded:

But could be made configurable...

why is it necessary to pass path to FileRoute when path is computed from the route file path?

[universse]

I see. I was under the impression that the type inference would come from the generated routeTree file, rather than the path that gets passed to FileRoute.

appreciate your fast response on this
