About Bash Beautify
Bash beautify
A simple extension that just works for shell script formatting based on Paul Lutus - Bash Script Beautifier, The underlying script doesn't do any syntax processing, Hence simple. It's lightweight and just needs python
It'll work with the default format keyboard binding when you edit a .sh file.
• If you need error checking consider installing also ShellCheck. • If you want a more extensive formatter check out shell-format it requires golang and shfmt installed
This is my first vscode extension, Please feel free to report issues, give feedback and request features.
Requirements
• Make sure to have Python installed and added to $PATH You'll mostly have those requirements met by default if you're running Linux
Features
• Adjustable tab size by changing the value of the property from settings bashBeautify.tabSize the default value is 4 • Bash script formatting
License
Although the extension is under MIT license, the underlying python script uses GPL license. So the script should stay under GPL and re-distributed accordingly
