shfmt

Shell parser, formatter and interpreter. More information: https://pkg.go.dev/mvdan.cc/sh.

  • Print a formatted version of a shell script:

shfmt {{path/to/file}}

  • List unformatted files:

shfmt --list {{path/to/directory}}

  • Write the result to the file instead of printing it to the terminal:

shfmt --write {{path/to/file}}

  • Simplify the code, removing redundant pieces of syntax (i.e. removing "$" from vars in expressions):

shfmt --simplify {{path/to/file}}
