January 16-22, 2022 in Darker: Blue formatter support explored, VSCode integration challenges addressed

[akaihola]

This week, we explored the possibility of supporting the 'blue' formatter as an alternative to Black (#251). The discussion centered around implementation strategies, considering options like separate --black/--blue configuration flags or a unified --formatter option. This potential addition aims to provide more flexibility in code formatting choices for our users.

We also addressed VSCode integration challenges, particularly when using the -L/--lint flag (#252). The issue stems from VSCode's use of temporary files during the formatting process, which conflicts with Darker's linting output. We're considering ways to improve documentation and possibly adjust Darker's behavior to better accommodate IDE integrations. Additionally, we closed an issue related to GitHub Actions integration (#253), clarifying that full support will be available in the upcoming 1.4.0 release. Lastly, we resolved a CI issue caused by dependency updates (#259), ensuring the stability of our development pipeline.
