[BUG] [Formatter] </textarea> dedents weirdly

[mousetail]

• I'm on the latest version of djLint
• I've searched the issues
• I've read the docs

System Info

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04.5
• Python: 3.10.12
• djLint Version (djlint --version): 1.35.2
• template language: Tera, I'm using the Jinja profile for djLint

Issue

Multiline <textarea> block dedent completely.

DJLint formats the code as follows:

<form method="post">
  <textarea name="code">
    {%- if object.code -%}
      {{- object.code -}}
    {%- endif -%}
</textarea>
  <input>
</form>

But I expect lie this:

<form method="post">
  <textarea name="code">
    {%- if object.code -%}
      {{- object.code -}}
    {%- endif -%}
  </textarea>
  <input>
</form>

How To Reproduce

Try to format the code above. Settings are default.

Have you looked at how the textarea you have defined would look like in a browser? textarea is sensitive to indenting, so it does not makes sense for djlint to format it imo, and that's why djlint (intentionally, I think) has textarea in its ignored_blocks.

EDIT: So your code should be

<form method="post">
  <textarea name="code">{%- if object.code -%}{{- object.code -}}{%- endif -%}</textarea>
  <input>
</form>

Not nice, but fine, and I don't see an actually better way.

In Jinja {- removes whitespace from the ends of a statement. A textarea with {- -} inside it should just be formatted normally.

[oliverhaas]

Okay. I did not know about that. Apparently Jinja also has some env variables which might affect whitespace handling.

Then my best guess to make your specific case work you would need djlint to respect jinja whitespace-removal by template tags in multiple places. Such that a textarea block which both starts and ends with whitespace-removal will be indented like normal html blocks.

If you wanna take a shot I would look for something like ignored_blocks and regexes which include textarea (obviously). Might be just a couple of lines and a test case (which you already have).
