Apexfmt formats Apex code. It uses tabs for indentation.
Given a file, it writes the formatted code to standard output by default. The
--write/-w flag can be used to overwrite the original file(s). The
--list/-l flag can be used to list files with formatting different from
apexfmt's.
On macOS and Linux, apexfmt can be installed with Homebrew:
$ brew install octoberswimmer/tap/apexfmt
Pre-built binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are also available on the releases page.
$ apexfmt -w sfdx/main/default/classes/*.cls sfdx/main/default/triggers/*.trigger
apexfmt sets the Go garbage collector target to 200 unless the GOGC
environment variable is set, which cuts the CPU time spent formatting by about
a third. Peak memory rises when many files are formatted at once; set
GOGC=100 to restore the runtime default.
apexfmt is included as a default formatter in vim-autoformat.
Use the following settings to display parse errors and disable the default formatting if apexfmt fails:
let g:autoformat_verbosemode=1
let g:autoformat_autoindent = 0
let g:autoformat_retab = 0
let g:autoformat_remove_trailing_spaces = 0
apexfmt is inspired by gofmt.
The antlr4 grammar is based on the @nawforce's apex-parser grammar, which is originally based on the grammer used by @neowit's tooling-force.com.
apexfmt in the browser forked from go-fmt-wasm.
