I did some research and found this feature has already been requested: https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/4125

Changes to prettier were made (https://github.com/prettier/prettier/pull/6685) and released in prettier 2.0 back in 2020. (https://prettier.io/blog/2020/03/21/2.0.0.html#improved-method-chain-breaking-heuristic-6685httpsgithubcomprettierprettierpull6685-by-mmkalhttpsgithubcommmkal)

But looking at example you provided it is still not working great apparently :/

If it were any option in prettier to configure this behaviour it would’ve been in here: https://prettier.io/docs/en/options.html But I haven’t found anything that would help your case.

It seems to me the only thing you can do right now is to use

JavaScript

..before your line. You can read more about prettier ignore in html here: https://prettier.io/docs/en/ignore.html#html
