.prettierrc

[BLamy]

I searched and didn't really see anything for this but as prettier gets more configuration options it would be ideal to be able to configure it on a per project basis.

For instance, some projects use trailing commas others don't. Some projects don't use semicolons others may want automatic semicolon insertion.

Seeing a .prettierrc file in the project is probably a good tip off that they expect all code to be formatted with prettier.

#40 can cover this in a way if you haven't seen

@jlongster has confirmed that he is not interested in adding configuration files to prettier. He will soon add FAQ document for this.

EDIT: Duplicated of #98.

I may be missing something too.
I agree with the not-too-many-config approach, but if this lib already supports some options, why not support a .prettierrc file too? It's not asking to add more configuration, just an easier way to read them.

Where I'm coming from:
I've put the prettier configs in the vscode settings.json.
Later, I run the cli command and did not pass the options in the cli, so it of course changed all my files back to the defaults. I was so used to eslint, babel, etc, looking at config files that I didn't realized the cli command would not use it. :)

Prettier now has a configuration file.
