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

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
