uncrustify

C, C++, C#, D, Java and Pawn source code formatter. More information: https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrustify.
  • Format a single file:
    uncrustify -f {{path/to/file.cpp}} -o {{path/to/output.cpp}}
  • Read filenames from stdin, and take backups before writing output back to the original filepaths:
    find . -name "*.cpp" | uncrustify -F - --replace
  • Don't make backups (useful if files are under version control):
    find . -name "*.cpp" | uncrustify -F - --no-backup
  • Use a custom configuration file and write the result to stdout:
    uncrustify -c {{path/to/uncrustify.cfg}} -f {{path/to/file.cpp}}
  • Explicitly set a configuration variable's value:
    uncrustify --set {{option}}={{value}}
  • Generate a new configuration file:
    uncrustify --update-config -o {{path/to/new.cfg}}
