Formatting to help keep your code neat.

					
# Format `source.js` and print the results to stdout.
jsfmt source.js

# Format `source.js` and write the results to disk.
jsfmt -w=true source.js

# View a diff of all formatting changes in `source.js` without writing them.
jsfmt -d=true source.js

# List all files that need formatting in the `src/` directory.
# Directories are recursively traversed.
jsfmt -l=true -w=false src/
					
				

Searching to smartly find patterns.

					
# Find all instances of _.reduce() in `source.js`.
# Single letter identifiers act as wildcards, and whitespace is ignored.
jsfmt --search="_.reduce(a, b, c)" source.js

# Find all calls to console.log() in your project's `src/` directory.
jsfmt --search="console.log(s)" src/
					
				

Rewriting for easy cleaning and refactoring.

					
# Replace underscore.js's reduce with the native reduce method in `source.js`.
jsfmt --rewrite="_.reduce(a, b, c) -> a.reduce(b, c)" source.js

# Do it again, but this time save the changes to disk.
jsfmt --write=true --rewrite="_.reduce(a, b, c) -> a.reduce(b, c)" source.js

# Replace modulo with an expression that always returns a positive number, and run the results.
jsfmt --rewrite="x % y -> ((x % y) + y) % y" source.js | node
					
				

Intelligent

Built on esprima and esformatter for smart code parsing and formatting. Jsfmt works on your code's AST, not just on its text.
