Shell parser, formatter and interpreter. More information: <https://pkg.go.dev/mvdan.cc/sh>.

  • Print a formatted version of a shell script:
    shfmt path/to/file
  • List unformatted files:
    shfmt --list path/to/directory
  • Write the result to the file instead of printing it to the terminal:
    shfmt --write path/to/file
  • Simplify the code, removing redundant pieces of syntax (i.e. removing "$" from vars in expressions):
    shfmt --simplify path/to/file
