A Editorconfig file parser and manipulator for Go.
- escaping comments in values, probably in go-ini/ini
- adjacent nested braces
We recommend the use of Go 1.17+ modules for this package. Lower versions, such as 1.13, should be fine.
Import by the same path. The package name you will use to access it is
editorconfig
.
import "github.com/editorconfig/editorconfig-core-go/v2"
fp, err := os.Open("path/to/.editorconfig")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer fp.Close()
editorConfig, err := editorconfig.Parse(fp)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fp, err := os.Open("path/to/.editorconfig")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer fp.Close()
editorConfig, warning, err := editorconfig.ParseGraceful(fp)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// Log the warning(s) encountered while reading the editorconfig file
if warning != nil {
log.Print(warning)
}
data := []byte("...")
editorConfig, err := editorconfig.ParseBytes(data)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
This method builds a definition to a given filename. This definition is a merge of the properties with selectors that matched the given filename. The lasts sections of the file have preference over the priors.
def := editorConfig.GetDefinitionForFilename("my/file.go")
This definition have the following properties:
type Definition struct {
Selector string
Charset string
IndentStyle string
IndentSize string
TabWidth int
EndOfLine string
TrimTrailingWhitespace *bool
InsertFinalNewline *bool
Raw map[string]string
}
If you want a definition of a file without having to manually
parse the .editorconfig
files, you can then use the static version
of GetDefinitionForFilename
:
def, err := editorconfig.GetDefinitionForFilename("foo/bar/baz/my-file.go")
In the example above, the package will automatically search for
.editorconfig
files on:
foo/bar/baz/.editorconfig
foo/baz/.editorconfig
foo/.editorconfig
Until it reaches a file with root = true
or the root of the filesystem.
You can easily convert a Editorconfig struct to a compatible INI file:
// serialize to slice of bytes
data, err := editorConfig.Serialize()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// save directly to file
err := editorConfig.Save("path/to/.editorconfig")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}

go test -v ./...
