nph

nph is an opinionated source code formatter for the Nim language, aiming to take the drudgery of manual formatting out of your coding day.

Following the great tradition of black, prettier, clang-format and other AST-based formatters, it discards existing styling to create a consistent and beautiful codebase.

Documentation

Documentation is available here.

Quickstart

Install nph, then run it on some files:

# Format the given files in-place
nph file0.nim file1.nim

# Format the given files, writing the formatted code to /tmp
nph file0.nim file1.nim --outdir:/tmp

# Format an entire directory
nph src/

# Use --check to verify that a file is formatted as `nph` would - useful in CI
nph --check somefile.nim || echo "Not formatted!"

# You can format stuff as part of a pipe using `-` as input:
echo "echo 1" | nph -
