  • yeah, maybe, I find that thread too. But to change the vim script of a plugin seems a little too complex for me. So I've chose another approach. I've post an answer to my own question.

I didn't find a solution to resolve this issue directly, but I find another Plugin: https://github.com/Chiel92/vim-autoformat. To use this plugin to format javascript, you have to install a global js-beautify node module first: 

npm install -g js-beautify

After the npm module is installed, the plugin will automatically detect it and format js code properly.
