Indented block formatting not stable

[turadg]

Bug description

A code block like this is stable,

   *   ```md
   *   Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *   ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *   'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *   'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   * ```

But when the code block's syntax isn't specified, the tool changes to indentation syntax, which is not stable.

Actual

Example

Pass 0:

   *   ```
   *   Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *   ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *   'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *   'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   * ```

Pass 1:

   *       Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *       ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *       'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *       'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 2:

   *         Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *         ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *         'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *         'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 3:

   *           Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *           ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *           'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *           'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 4:

   *             Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *       ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *       'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *       'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 5:

   *               Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *         ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *         'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *         'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 6:

   *                 Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *           ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *           'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *           'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Pass 7:

   *                   Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *       ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *       'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *       'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

Expected

• Indented blocks aren't reformatted

[hosseinmd]

Use intention instead of backtick, when you're wrapping with backtick, plugin assume this is code and formatting them as code. Add four space as intention like this

   *     Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *     ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *     'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *     'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

I think what you're advising is exactly what's in Pass 1. Notice that on the next format it moves and on each format it moves again. ie not stable

[hosseinmd]

Please give me your comment completely.

Here's a failing case in 0.3.34:

 /**
   * @returns {boolean} result
   *
   *         Then the bounds    would iterate over the key sequence
   *         ----------------   -----------------------------------
   *         'bar', 'goomba'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority
   *         'bar', 'joober'    bar, baz, foocount, foopriority

@hosseinmd have you confirmed this is a bug? Is it one you intend to work on or will it require a community fix?

[hosseinmd]

Yes, this is a bug. I will, but Now I don't have enough time.

[turadg]

May be fixed by prettier/prettier#13532

If so will require #194

[turadg]

It's not fully stable but I think the remaining problem is #178
