CodeFormatter is a Sublime Text 2/3 plugin that supports format (beautify) source code.
CodeFormatter has support for the following languages:
- PHP - By PEAR PHP_Beautifier
- JavaScript/JSON/JSONP - By JSBeautifier
- HTML - By JSBeautifier
- CSS - By JSBeautifier
- Python - By PythonTidy (only ST2)
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/
Following are notes specific to individual formatters that you should be aware of:

"shebang": "#!/usr/bin/env python", // Hashbang, a line-one comment naming the Python interpreter to Unix shells.
"boilerplate": "", // Standard code block (if any). This is inserted after the module doc string on output.
"blank_line": "", // This is how a blank line is to appear (up to the newline character).

// Optionally preserve unassigned constants so that code to be tidied
// may contain blocks of commented-out lines that have been no-op'ed
// with leading and trailing triple quotes. Python scripts may declare
// constants without assigning them to a variables, but CodeFormatter
// considers this wasteful and normally elides them.
"keep_unassigned_constants": false,
// Optionally omit parentheses around tuples, which are superfluous
// after all. Normal CodeFormatter behavior will be still to include them
// as a sort of tuple display analogous to list displays, dict
// displays, and yet-to-come set displays.
"parenthesize_tuple_display": true,
// When CodeFormatter splits longer lines because max_seps
// are exceeded, the statement normally is closed before the margin is
// restored. The closing bracket, brace, or parenthesis is placed at the
// 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
// statement.
"java_style_list_dedent": false
}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.
Add other languages support:
- Python (for ST3)
- Perl
- Ruby
Pull requests are welcome.
