formatter

Format Source Code for JAVA, CSS, JS, XML, HTML with Eclipse JDT

Formatter Help is an API as utility based in https://code.revelc.net/formatter-maven-plugin

What is the difference?

1. formatter-maven-plugin is an wrap of eclipse jdt core for maven-plugin and required that used in a pom.xml
2. formatter-build not depend of maven-plugin, this could use as a simple LIB and wrap the eclipse format jdt

You can use this api in your application in runtime without include the maven-plugin dependency

Declare dependency:

 <dependency>
     <groupId>com.github.yracnet.formatter</groupId>
     <artifactId>formatter-help</artifactId>
     <version>0.2.0</version>
 </dependency>

In your code:

public static void main(String[] args) throws FormatterException, IOException {
  File basedir = new File("/work/project-x");
  File dir1 = new File(basedir, "/src/main");
  File dir2 = new File(basedir, "/src/test");
  
  FormatterBuild build = FormatterBuild.create();

  //basedir is a root directory when exist a source code as JAVA, JS, HTML, CSS
  build.setBasedir(basedir); 

  // this is necesary for declare all directory that format
  // remember that dir1, dir2 are subdirectory of basedir
  build.setDirectories(dir1, dir2); 

  //This execute the format code
  build.execute();  
}

The FormatterBuild Class has many method for configure the execution, please see the project https://code.revelc.net/formatter-maven-plugin
