Indentation

[mdschweda]

How about an option to preserve indentation for partials?

See Reference: preventIndent

Example

public class {{Name}} {

    {{#each}}
    {{>Property}}

    {{/each}}
}

public {{Type.Name}} {{Name}} {
    get;
    set;
}

Output

var config = new HandlebarsConfiguration { PreventIndent = false };

public class Foo {

    public object Bar {
        get;
        set;
    }

}

var config = new HandlebarsConfiguration { PreventIndent = true };

public class Foo {

public object Bar {
    get;
    set;
}

}

PR always welcome! We already have some plumbing in-place to manage whitespace during the parsing and conversion phases, perhaps that can be leveraged.

I'll look into that next week

Any news on this?

This will be resolved by PR #635 (fix: preserve partial indentation), which implements the standalone-indentation behaviour from the Mustache spec — leading whitespace on a partial line is captured and prepended to every line of the rendered partial output. Will close this when that PR merges.

Resolved by PR #635 (merged). Partial indentation is now preserved — when a partial call is the only non-whitespace content on a line, the leading whitespace is captured and prepended to every line of the rendered partial output, matching the Mustache standalone-indentation spec.
