# dfmt [](https://travis-ci.org/Hackerpilot/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.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
### Using Make
|
|
* Clone the repository
|
|
* Run ```git submodule update --init``` 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/```.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 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 in .editorconfig files.
|
|
|
|
### Options
|
|
* **--help**: Display command line options
|
|
* **--inplace**: A file name is required and the file will be edited in-place.
|
|
* **--align_switch_statements**: See **dfmt_align_switch_statements** below
|
|
* **--brace_style**: See **brace_style** below
|
|
* **--end_of_line**: See **end_of_line** below
|
|
* **--indent_size**: See **indent_size** below
|
|
* **--indent_style**: See **indent_style** below
|
|
* **--max_line_length**: See **max_line_length** below
|
|
* **--soft_max_line_length**: See **dfmt_soft_max_line_length** below
|
|
* **--outdent_attributes**: See **dfmt_outdent_attributes** below
|
|
* **--outdent_labels**: See **dfmt_outdent_labels** below
|
|
* **--space_after_cast**: See **dfmt_space_after_cast** below
|
|
* **--split_operator_at_line_end**: See **dfmt_split_operator_at_line_end** below
|
|
* **--tab_width**: See **tab_width** below

### Example
|
|
```
|
|
dfmt --inplace --space_after_cast=false --max_line_length=80 \
|
|
--soft_max_line_length=70 --brace_style=otbs file.d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
**dfmt** uses [EditorConfig](http://editorconfig.org/) configuration files.
