Installation
Install apotheke and pick between the Prettier plugin and the CLI.
Install apotheke as a dev dependency:
pnpm add -D apotheke
# npm install -D apotheke
# bun add -D apotheke
# yarn add -D apothekePrettier is an optional peer dependency — you only need it if you use the plugin.
Requirements
- Node.js 18 or later
- Prettier 3 or later for the plugin. Prettier 2 has no async
preprocesshook; see the v2 fallback.
Which entry point?
Prettier plugin
Recommended. One prettier --write organises imports and formats code in a single pass, and
editor format-on-save works with no extra setup.
CLI
For repos that do not use Prettier, or for CI checks and one-off codemods.
Both read the same apotheke.config.mjs, so switching later costs nothing.
Next
You still need a config — apotheke ships no default groups and errors if it cannot find one. Continue to the quick start.
