antlr-format-cli v1.2.4

The antlr-format-cli package is a terminal tool to use the antlr-format package in a terminal, in batch files and other automatic formatting scenarios.

Installation

For a local installation in your project use:

npm i --save-dev antlr-format-cli

Or as a global module, which allows you to run it anywhere on your machine:

npm i -g --save-dev antlr-format-cli

The package provides the command antlr-format (note the missing -cli suffix).

Usage

Running the formatter tool in a terminal is simple. Switch to the project folder (or if you have the formatter installed globally use any directory) and issue the command:

antlr-format --config config.json -v ./**/MyGrammar.g4 AnotherGrammar.g4

with the actual path to the grammar(s) you want to be formatted.

You can omit the --config parameter, in which case the default options will be used. The list of files supports the usual glob pattern for file systems. Grammars may contain syntax errors (e.g. for testing), but you should only use the tool for real ANTLR4 grammars, otherwise the outcome is unpredictable.

Run the tool with --help to have it print its supported parameters. For a detailed description of the supported formatting options check out the formatting documentation in the antlr-format node package.
