IntelliJ Reformat Code action ignores .buildifier.json

[nickbreen]

Description of the bug:

When formatting a BUILD file with Ctrl+Alt+L or invoking "Reformat Code" the file is formatted ignoring the .buildifier.sjon file in the project root.

This is inconsistent with invoking buildifier -lint fix on the command line.

Which category does this issue belong to?

Intellij

What's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.

Craft a BUILD file with a fully qualified label:

java_library(
   name = "foo",
   deps = [
       "//bar:bar",
   ],
)

Define .buildifier.json with:

{
  "buildifier_disable": ["label"]
}

Execute buildifier:

buildifier -lint fix BUILD

This honours the configuration and does not shorten the //bar:bar label.

Apply IntelliJ's Format Code action with Ctrl+Alt+L and notice that the label is shortened to //bar.

Issue https://github.com/bazelbuild/intellij/issues/6157 appears to address a similar problem but is apparently resolved.

Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?

Enabling "Automatically format BUILD/Starlark files on file save" appears to honour some of the configuration.

Format-on-save is:

• preserving long labels
• re-ordering rule attributes consistently with -lint fix, but not consistently with -lint warn
• not fixing out-of-order-load
