API Usage

formatFile(path: string, options?: OptionType): Promise<void>

path can be the path of a .conf file, or a folder contains .conf file. Glob syntax is also supported. If a folder is provided, all .conf files including those in its sub folders will be formatted.

formatContent(content: string, options?: OptionType): string

content is the full content of a config file. Returns a string of the formatted content.

The APIs above accepts a option object. All options are optional and its default value is the same as the CLI.

interface OptionType {
    indentStyle?: 'space' | 'tab'
    dontJoinCurlyBracket?: boolean
    align?: boolean
    trailingBlankLines?: boolean
    extension?: string
}
