This extension allows you to use [jsbeautifier] (http://jsbeautifier.org/) inside vim to quickly format javascript, html and css files. Version 1.0 also supports the [editorconfig] (http://editorconfig.org/) file.
Any comments, corrections and suggestions are welcome.
To use this extension you need to install a javascript interpreter: [nodejs] (http://nodejs.org/) or [v8] (http://code.google.com/p/v8/).
Download zip [file] (https://github.com/maksimr/vim-jsbeautify/archive/master.zip)
or clone project. Then copy plugin folder from the plugin's directory to your dot vim (.vim) folder.
unzip master.zip
cd vim-jsbeautify-master
cp -r plugin ~/.vim/
Then download the zip file for js-beautify and put it to .vim/plugin/lib.
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/maksimr/vim-jsbeautify.git
cd vim-jsbeautify && git submodule update --init --recursive
Simply add a line to your .vimrc.
Bundle 'maksimr/vim-jsbeautify'
You'd better add another line in your .vimrc to use js-beautify.
Bundle 'einars/js-beautify'
Call BundleInstall() inside vim:
:BundleInstall
Also need to be installed after the expansion, go to its folder
and perform git submodule update --init --recursive or specify
when you set up the path to the external file format (shown below).
In version 1.0, all configuration is done through the .editorconfig file.
This file can be located either in the user home directory ~/.editorconfig,
or in inside the vim configuration directory ~/.vim/.editorconfig.
To assign a custom path for the .editorconfig file set the variable g:editorconfig_Beautifier.
Settings are taken from sections [**. js], [**. css] and [**. html]. Within these
sections can use a special comment ; vim:, but this comment
can be used only for the global settings.
You can also configure a variable g: config_Beautifier(g:config_Beautifier has type dict), but it is better to use the .editorconfig file.
A simple example of the .editorconfig file:
; .editorconfig
root = true
[**.js]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
[**.css]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
[**.html]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
max_char = 78
brace_style = expand
The .editorconfig file uses special comments (;vim:)
and special properties for the jsbeautify plugin like path, bin
; .editorconfig
root = true
[**.js]
; Path to the external file format
; The default is taken from the lib folder inside the folder extension.
path=~/.vim/bundle/js-beautify/js/lib/beautify.js
; Javascript interpreter to be invoked by default 'node'
bin=node
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
[**.css]
path=~/.vim/bundle/js-beautify/js/lib/beautify-css.js
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
[**.html]
; Using special comments
; And such comments or apply only in global configuration
; So it's best to avoid them
;vim:path=~/.vim/bundle/js-beautify/js/lib/beautify-html.js
;vim:max_char=78:brace_style=expand
indent_style = space
indent_size = 4
".vimrc
map <c-f> :call JsBeautify()<cr>
" or
autocmd FileType javascript noremap <buffer> <c-f> :call JsBeautify()<cr>
" for html
autocmd FileType html noremap <buffer> <c-f> :call HtmlBeautify()<cr>
" for css or scss
autocmd FileType css noremap <buffer> <c-f> :call CSSBeautify()<cr>
JsBeautify function takes two parameters: the starting line number and the ending line number. By
default these parameters are set to 0 and $.
If you want to beautify only selected lines you should use functions RangeJsBeautify, RangeCSSBeautify, RangeHtmlBeautify.
Example of binding a function for js, html and css in visual mode on
".vimrc
autocmd FileType javascript vnoremap <buffer> <c-f> :call RangeJsBeautify()<cr>
autocmd FileType html vnoremap <buffer> <c-f> :call RangeHtmlBeautify()<cr>
autocmd FileType css vnoremap <buffer> <c-f> :call RangeCSSBeautify()<cr>Tests are written in Urchin for vim files and built using Grunt test runer for javascript files. Note that all the commands bellow you should run from the plugin directory.
Run vim tests with urchin:
./urchin test/vim
(Or put it some other place in your PATH.)
How to run vim and javascript tests with grunt:
npm install -g grunt-cli
npm install
grunt test
Run only javascript tests:
grunt nodeunit
Thanks for assistance:
v1.1.1
- Add support js-beautify v1.3.1
