CodeFormatter

CodeFormatter is a Sublime Text 2/3 plugin that supports format (beautify) source code.

CodeFormatter has support for the following languages:

• PHP - By phpF
• JavaScript/JSON - By JSBeautifier
• HTML - By Custom fork of BeautifulSoup
• CSS,LESS,SASS - By JSBeautifier
• Python - By PythonTidy (only ST2)

Installing

With the Package Control plugin: The easiest way to install CodeFormatter is through Package Control, which can be found at this site: http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control

Once you install Package Control, restart Sublime Text and bring up the Command Palette (Command+Shift+P on OS X, Control+Shift+P on Linux/Windows). Select "Package Control: Install Package", wait while Package Control fetches the latest package list, then select CodeFormatter when the list appears. The advantage of using this method is that Package Control will automatically keep CodeFormatter up to date with the latest version.

Without Git: Download the latest source from GitHub and copy the CodeFormatter folder to your Sublime Text "Packages" directory.

With Git: Clone the repository in your Sublime Text "Packages" directory:

git clone https://github.com/akalongman/sublimetext-codeformatter.git CodeFormatter

The "Packages" directory is located at:

• OS X:

    ST2: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/
    ST3: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/
  

• Linux:

    ST2: ~/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/
    ST3: ~/.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/
  

• Windows:

    ST2: %APPDATA%/Sublime Text 2/Packages/
    ST3: %APPDATA%/Sublime Text 3/Packages/
  

Configuration

To change the default configurations you have to update the CodeFormatter - User Preferences file. You can find this file in the Sublime Text menu bar under: Sublime Text > Package Settings > CodeFormatter > Settings - User.

Make sure that you wrap all the configurations into a single root object.

{
   "codeformatter_php_options": {...},
   "codeformatter_js_options": {...},
   ..
}

        // current indent level.  This looks ugly to "C" programmers.  When
        // java_style_list_dedent is True, the closing bracket, brace, or
        // parenthesis is brought back left to the indent level of the enclosing

Usage

Tools -> Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+P) and type Format Code.

You can set up your own key combo for this, by going to Preferences -> Key Bindings - User, and adding a command in that huge array: { "keys": ["ctrl+alt+f"], "command": "code_formatter" },. Default keybinding is ctrl+alt+f. You can use any other key you want, thought most of them are already taken.

TODO

Add other languages support:

• Python (for ST3)
• Perl
• Ruby

Add tests

Troubleshooting

If you like living on the edge, please report any bugs you find on the CodeFormatter issues page.
