Passing CLI options to prettier about prettierd HOT 2 CLOSED

That would be a great addition for me. I can give it a go this weekend if you don't have enough time. Since I prefer single quotes in every where and sometimes there is no prettier configuration in the workspaces that I work, mostly yml files related to developer operations.

If you accept the other approach, overriding the behaviour from prettier, I can give it a go to that like enabling it with a environmental variable to be sure DEFAULT_CONFIG=~/.prettierrc prettierd ... or something like that.

Hi @cenk1cenk2, thanks for opening this issue. Having project-local configuration is part of prettier's philosophy and I wouldn't want to deviate from that.

Prettier intentionally doesn’t support any kind of global configuration. This is to make sure that when a project is copied to another computer, Prettier’s behavior stays the same. Otherwise, Prettier wouldn’t be able to guarantee that everybody in a team gets the same consistent results.

(from https://prettier.io/docs/en/configuration.html)

In terms of supporting the flags, I think that's an OK addition. Ideally everyone would be using local config files, but if pretter supports flags, we could support the same parameters.
