|

**Status: beta**
|
||||
|
||||
`treefmt` streamlines the process of applying formatters to your project, making it a breeze with just one command line.
|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
It’s common to format code according to the project’s standards before making contributions to any project. This task
|
||||
seems trivial at first sight — you can set up the required language formatter in your IDE.
|
||||
|
||||
However, contributing to multiple projects requires more effort: you must change your formatter configurations each
|
||||
time you switch between projects or call them manually.
|
||||
|
||||
Formatting requires less effort if a universal formatter for multiple languages, which is also project-specific, is in
|
||||
place.
|
||||
|
||||
## About treefmt
|
||||
|
||||
`treefmt` runs all your formatters with one command. It’s easy to configure and fast to execute.
|
||||
|
||||
![Treefmt Init](./docs/public/init.gif)
|
||||
|
||||
Its main features are:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Providing a unified CLI and output**
|
||||
- You don’t need to remember which formatters are necessary for each project.
|
||||
- Once you specify the formatters in the config file, you can trigger all of them with one command and get a
|
||||
standardized output.
|
||||
- **Running all the formatters in parallel**
|
||||
- A standard script loops over your folders and runs each formatter sequentially.
|
||||
- In contrast, `treefmt` runs formatters in parallel. This way, the formatting job takes less time.
|
||||
- **Tracking file changes**
|
||||
- When formatters are run in a script, they process all the files they encounter, regardless of whether or not
|
||||
they have changed.
|
||||
- `treefmt` tracks file changes, and only attempts to format a files which have changed.
|
||||
|
||||
To reformat the whole source tree, just type `treefmt` in any folder. This is a fast and simple formatting solution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
You can install `treefmt` by downloading the binary. Find the binaries for different architectures [here](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt.go/releases).
|
||||
Otherwise, you can install the package from source code — either with [Go](https://go.dev/), or with the help of [nix](https://github.com/NixOS/nix).
|
||||
|
||||
We describe the installation process in detail in the [docs](https://numtide.github.io/treefmt.go/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
In order to use `treefmt` in your project, make sure the config file `treefmt.toml` is present in the root folder and
|
||||
is edited to suit your needs.
|
||||
|
||||
You can generate it with:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ treefmt --init
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can then run `treefmt` in your project root folder like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ treefmt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To explore the tool’s flags and options, type:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ treefmt --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, there's a wrapper called [`treefmt-nix`](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt.go-nix) for using `treefmt` with [`nix`](https://github.com/NixOS/nix).
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Formatters are specified in the config file `treefmt.toml`, which is usually located in the project root folder. The
|
||||
generic way to specify a formatter is like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[formatter.<name>]
|
||||
command = "<formatter-command>"
|
||||
options = ["<formatter-option-1>"...]
|
||||
includes = ["<glob>"]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you want to use [nixpkgs-fmt](https://github.com/nix-community/nixpkgs-fmt) on your Nix project and rustfmt on your Rust project, then
|
||||
`treefmt.toml` will look as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[formatter.nix]
|
||||
command = "nixpkgs-fmt"
|
||||
includes = ["*.nix"]
|
||||
|
||||
[formatter.rust]
|
||||
command = "rustfmt"
|
||||
options = ["--edition", "2018"]
|
||||
includes = ["*.rs"]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Before specifying the formatter in the config, make sure it’s installed.
|
||||
|
||||
To find and share existing formatter recipes, take a look at the [docs](https://numtide.github.io/treefmt.go/).
|
||||
|
||||
If you are a Nix user, you might also be interested in [treefmt-nix](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt.go-nix) to use Nix to configure and bring in
|
||||
formatters.
|
||||
|
||||
## Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
`Treefmt` works with any formatter that adheres to the [following specification](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt.go/blob/main/docs/formatters-spec.md).
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, you can go for:
|
||||
|
||||
- [clang-format](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html) for C/C++/Java/JavaScript/JSON/Objective-C/Protobuf/C#
|
||||
- gofmt for Golang
|
||||
- Prettier for JavaScript/HTML/CSS
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Upcoming features
|
||||
|
||||
This project is still pretty new. Down the line we also want to add support for:
|
||||
|
||||
- IDE integration
|
||||
- Pre-commit hooks
|
||||
|
||||
