Does prettier have an API that can show the detail for lint info

Environments:

• Prettier Version: 1.15.3
• Running Prettier via: prettier.check(code, {parser: 'css', tabWidth: 4})
• Runtime: Node.js v9
• Operating System: macOS

Expected behavior: I wanna use API to scan a file where doesn’t match the prettier rules and returns me the info, but when I use prettier.check, it just return a Boolean, or if I use prettier.format, it will only prompt where prettier can’t format the code. I have read the docs in https://prettier.io/docs/en/api.html, but I can’t find the API which I needed.

@j-f1 That’s ESLint… I think that’s just an example of what they wanted.

@xtx1130 We don’t generate that kind of information and do intend to do it. Since Prettier just parses the code, generates an AST and then prints everything we don’t really “monitor” what changed.

The eslint-plugin-prettier ESLint plugin, which allows you to run Prettier through ESLint, computes a diff and shows a ESLint error. The rule is always the same though

@duailibe Thanks for you detailed explanation of the problem, I got it.
