EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs. The EditorConfig project consists of a file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined styles. EditorConfig files are easily readibly and they work nicely with version control systems.
Install with Package Control
Download, unzip, and put the contents in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/EditorConfig
.
Will be easier when Package Control is fully compatible.
See the EditorConfig site for documentation.
- root
- indent_style
- indent_size
- end_of_line
- charset
- trim_trailing_whitespace
- insert_final_newline
Explanation of the properties can be found on the EditorConfig site.
My recommended default settings
# editorconfig.org
root = true
[*]
indent_style = tab
end_of_line = lf
charset = utf-8
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
insert_final_newline = true
Even though there is a trim_trailing_whitespace
property. I would still recommend you set "draw_white_space": "all"
in your Sublime preferences to prevent you from accidentally committing whitespace garbage whenever a project is missing a .editorconfig file.
This plugin does its changes transparently in the background. I would recommend the excellent Modific plugin if you would like to see what changed.
