Perltidy TODO List
- This is a partial "wish-list" of features to add and things to do.
- -b does not work through the Tidy module
- The use of -b in the following does not work:
+ For a list of bugs and feature requests see:
- use Perl::Tidy ();
- use File::Spec;
-
- my $file = File::Spec->catfile( $dir,
- $filename );
-
- Perl::Tidy::perltidy(
- source => $file,
- argv => '-b',
- perltidyrc => $perltidyrc,
- );
-
- A temporary workaround is:
-
- Perl::Tidy::perltidy(
- argv => "-b $file",
- perltidyrc => $perltidyrc,
- );
-
- Improved Vertical Alignment
- There are still many opportunities for improving vertical alignment.
-
- Documentation
- A FAQ is needed to explain some of the more subtle formatting issues,
- and to give examples of different styles.
-
- The -formatter callback object documentation is incomplete.
-
- HTML writer
- The HTML writer does not colorize interpolated identifiers in here
- documents or quoted strings. The tokenizer outputs interpolation
- information for here docs; it still needs to be updated to do this for
- multi-line quotes. Then code needs to be written to scan for and markup
- identifiers.
-
-Things which have been suggested but will not be done
- Recursive file processing
- A -r flag might be nice, but this is best handled by an exterior shell
- script.
