How do I get the output of an Xcode user script to auto indent?
- by John Gallagher
The Problem
I want to press a key when I have a line highlighted and convert from a single line:
JGLogEntry *logEntry = [JGLogEntry applicationNoWindowsFrom:date1 to:date2 intoMOC:mockRawMOC];
to a multiline statement:
JGLogEntry *logEntry = [JGLogEntry applicationNoWindowsFrom:date1
to:date2
intoMOC:mockRawMOC];
What I've Tried
I've got a simple ruby script that almost gets me there.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
s = STDIN.read
s.gsub!(/(:.+?\w) (\w.+?)/,'\1' + "\n\t" +'\2')
print s
When I set the output to "Replace Selection", I get this:
JGLogEntry *logEntry = [JGLogEntry applicationNoWindowsFrom:date1
to:date2
intoMOC:mockRawMOC];
When I set the output to "Place on Clipboard", then paste it in, I get the desired result:
JGLogEntry *logEntry = [JGLogEntry applicationNoWindowsFrom:date1
to:date2
intoMOC:mockRawMOC];
However, this is two keypresses which is clumsy.
Any ideas how I can get the replaced text to obey Xcode's auto indent rules?
