EditorConfig helps developers maintain consistent coding styles between different editors
Install EditorConfig
with Package Control and restart Sublime.
See the EditorConfig site for documentation.
- root
- indent_style
- indent_size
- end_of_line
- charset
- trim_trailing_whitespace
- insert_final_newline
Explanation of the properties can be found on the EditorConfig site.
My recommended default settings
# editorconfig.org
root = true
[*]
indent_style = tab
end_of_line = lf
charset = utf-8
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
insert_final_newline = true
Even though there is a trim_trailing_whitespace
property. I would still recommend you set "draw_white_space": "all"
and/or "trim_trailing_white_space_on_save": true
in your Sublime preferences to prevent you from accidentally committing whitespace garbage whenever a project is missing a .editorconfig file.
This plugin does its changes transparently in the background. I would recommend the excellent Modific plugin if you would like to see what changed.
