Dfmt is a formatter for D source code
To use this package, run the following command in your project's root directory:
Manual usage
Put the following dependency into your project's dependences section:
dfmt
dfmt is a formatter for D source code
Status
dfmt is beta quality. Make backups of your files or use source control when using the --inplace option.
Installation
Installing with DUB
> dub run dfmt -- -h
Building from source using Make
- Clone the repository
- Run
`git submodule update --init --recursive
` in the dfmt directory - To compile with DMD, run
`make
in the dfmt directory. To compile with LDC, run
make ldc
instead. The generated binary will be placed in
dfmt/bin/
`.
Building from source using dub
- Clone the repository
- run
dub build --build=release
, optionally with--compiler=ldc2
Using
By default, dfmt reads its input from stdin and writes to stdout. If a file name is specified on the command line, input will be read from the file instead, and output will be written to stdout.
dfmt uses EditorConfig files for configuration. If you run dfmt on a source file it will look for .editorconfig files that apply to that source file. If no file is specified on the command line, dfmt will look for .editorconfig files that would apply to a D file in the current working directory. Command line options can be used instead of .editorconfig files, or to override options found there.

Disabling formatting
Formatting can be temporarily disabled by placing the comments `// dfmt off
and
// dfmt on
` around code that you do not want formatted.
void main(string[] args)
{
bool optionOne, optionTwo, optionThree;
// dfmt has no way of knowing that "getopt" is special, so it wraps the
// argument list normally
getopt(args, "optionOne", &optionOne, "optionTwo", &optionTwo, "optionThree", &optionThree);
// dfmt off
getopt(args,
"optionOne", &optionOne,
"optionTwo", &optionTwo,
"optionThree", &optionThree);
// dfmt on
}
Configuration
dfmt uses EditorConfig configuration files. dfmt-specific properties are prefixed with dfmt_.
Standard EditorConfig properties
Property Name | Allowed Values | Description |
---|---|---|
endofline | cr , crlf and lf | See EditorConfig documentation. When not set, dfmt adopts the first line ending in the input. |
insertfinalnewline | `true` | Not supported. dfmt always inserts a final newline. |
charset | `UTF-8` | Not supported. dfmt only works correctly on UTF-8. |
indent_style | tab , `space` | See EditorConfig documentation. |
indent_size | positive integers (`4`) | See EditorConfig documentation. |
tab_width | positive integers (`4`) | See EditorConfig documentation. |
trimtrailingwhitespace | `true` | Not supported. dfmt does not emit trailing whitespace. |
maxlinelength | positive integers (`120`) | See EditorConfig documentation. |
dfmt-specific properties
Property Name | Allowed Values | Description |
---|---|---|
dfmtbracestyle | `allman`, otbs , stroustrup or knr | See Wikipedia |
dfmtsoftmaxlinelength | positive integers (`80`) | The formatting process will usually keep lines below this length, but they may be up to max_line_length columns long. |
dfmtalignswitch_statements | `true`, false | Align labels, cases, and defaults with their enclosing switch. |
dfmtoutdentattributes (Not yet implemented) | `true`, false | Decrease the indentation level of attributes. |
dfmtsplitoperatoratline_end | true , `false` | Place operators on the end of the previous line when splitting lines. |
dfmtspaceafter_cast | `true`, false | Insert space after the closing paren of a cast expression. |
dfmtspaceafter_keywords (Not yet implemented) | `true`, false | Insert space after if , while , foreach , etc, and before the ( . |
dfmtspacebeforefunctionparameters | true , `false` | Insert space before the opening paren of a function parameter list. |
dfmtselectiveimport_space | `true`, false | Insert space after the module name and before the : for selective imports. |
dfmtcompactlabeled_statements | `true`, false | Place labels on the same line as the labeled switch , for , foreach , or while statement. |
dfmttemplateconstraint_style | `conditional_newline_indent` conditional_newline always_newline always_newline_indent | Control the formatting of template constraints. |
dfmtsingletemplateconstraintindent | true , `false` | Set if the constraints are indented by a single tab instead of two. Has only an effect if the style set to always_newline_indent or conditional_newline_indent . |
dfmtspacebeforeaacolon | true , `false` | Adds a space after an associative array key before the : like in older dfmt versions. |
dfmtspacebeforenamedarg_colon | true , `false` | Adds a space after a named function argument or named struct constructor argument before the : . |
dfmtkeepline_breaks | true , `false` | Keep existing line breaks if these don't violate other formatting rules. |
dfmtsingleindent | true , `false` | Set if the code in parens is indented by a single tab instead of two. |
dfmtreflowproperty_chains | `true`, false | Recalculate the splitting of property chains into multiple lines. |
dfmtspaceafter_keywords | `true`, false | Insert space after keywords (if,while,foreach,for, etc.). |
