Bug#970393: RFP: shfmt -- Shell script formatter
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-go@lists.debian.org
* Package name : shfmt
Version : 3.1.2
Upstream Author : Daniel Martí <mvdan@mvdan.cc>
* URL : https://github.com/mvdan/sh
* License : BSD-3
Programming Lang: Go
Description : Shell script formatter
shfmt is a code formatter for POSIX shell scripts, including support for
Bash and mksh extensions.
shfmt would be a good candidate for packaging due to its popularity (>3k
stars on GitHub) and being actively maintained for more than 4 years.
Debian currently includes code formatters for many languages (e.g.
astyle, bcpp, clang-tidy, indent, uncrustify), but none for shell
scripts. shfmt is the only such code formatter I am aware of (other
than an unmaintained awk script[1]).
Thanks for considering,
Kevin
