grunt-indentator

A Grunt task to convert the indentation on files.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt 0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-indentator --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-indentator');

The "indentator" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named indentator to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  indentator: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
});

Options

options.type

Type: String Default value: 'space'

Sets the type of indentation to which your files will be converted. Can be 'space' or 'tab'.

options.size

Type: Number Default value: 4

Sets the size of each indentation. If options.type is set to 'space', this number equals the number of spaces in each indentation. If its set to 'tab', this number equals the number of tabbed intendations.

options.debug

Type: Boolean Default value: false

If set to true, displays aditional information on the files that are being converted, such as their previous and new indentation size and type.

Usage Examples

Default Options

This is a basic example of how this task is configured in your Gruntfile.js. This configuration relies on no specific options and is using the default conversion settings.

grunt.initConfig({
  indentator: {
    options: {},
    files: ['*.js', 'styles/*.sass']
  },
});

Custom Options

This is a customized configuration of this task. In this setting, the target files will be converted to 'space' indentations with a size of 2 spaces per indentation. Upon converting the files, a set of debug information will be displayed.

grunt.initConfig({
  indentator: {
    options: {
      type: 'space',
      size: 2,
      debug: true
    },
    files: ['*.js', 'styles/*.sass']
  },
});
