Prettier-atom: .prettierrc config not recognized

[mgrip]

I'm trying to use prettier-atom with a project that already has a .prettierrc file. However it doesn't seem to be picking up any of the settings in that file, and in addition it doesn't run on save if I have the "Only format if a Prettier config is found" setting checked.

Here's the contents of my .prettierrc file:

{
  "printWidth": 80,
  "singleQuote": true,
  "bracketSpacing": false
}

Atom version: 1.23.1
prettier-atom version: 0.43.1
prettier version: 1.9.2
prettier-eslint version: 8.2.6
prettier-atom configuration: {
  "formatOnSaveOptions": {
    "enabled": true,
    "isDisabledIfNoConfigFile": true,
    "showInStatusBar": true,
    "respectEslintignore": true,

      "source.js",

      "text.html.basic",
      "text.html.vue"
    ],
    "typescriptScopes": [

  },

  }
}

@mgrip We currently have an issue with prettier-atom not picking up changes to your .prettierrc (see https://github.com/prettier/prettier-atom/issues/270), can you restart atom and make sure this isn't what's going?

Ive tried restarting a couple times, still the same problem. Also its not running on save (when I have the "only format if a prettier config is found" setting checked), which seems like its not recognizing the config at all, not just changes to it.

@mgrip Can you use prettier directly from the command line and see if the same thing happens? Any errors in your atom console?

I actually just tried with another project and it worked fine (settings were picked up from rc file, they override the atom package settings, it runs on save). I don't have access to the original project I was having problems with at the moment but it must be a config issue. I'll report back if I find anything else - thanks!

Confirming that it seems to have to do with plugin startup. Restarting the editor is the only way I can get prettier-atom to pickup the presence-or-absence-of .prettierrc.
