A tool for formatting Rust code according to style guidelines.
binary and library targets of your crate.
You'll probably want to specify the write mode. Currently, there are modes for
-diff, replace, overwrite, display, coverage, and checkstyle.
+`diff`, `replace`, `overwrite`, `display`, `coverage`, `checkstyle`, and `plain`.
-* `replace` Is the default and overwrites the original files after creating backups of the files.
-* `overwrite` Overwrites the original files _without_ creating backups.
+* `overwrite` Is the default and overwrites the original files _without_ creating backups.
+* `replace` Overwrites the original files after creating backups of the files.
* `display` Will print the formatted files to stdout.
+* `plain` Also writes to stdout, but with no metadata.
* `diff` Will print a diff between the original files and formatted files to stdout.
Will also exit with an error code if there are any differences.
* `checkstyle` Will output the lines that need to be corrected as a checkstyle XML file,
The write mode can be set by passing the `--write-mode` flag on
the command line. For example `rustfmt --write-mode=display src/filename.rs`
-`cargo fmt` uses `--write-mode=replace` by default.
+`cargo fmt` uses `--write-mode=overwrite` by default.
If you want to restrict reformatting to specific sets of lines, you can
use the `--file-lines` option. Its argument is a JSON array of objects
If `rustfmt` successfully reformatted the code it will exit with `0` exit
status. Exit status `1` signals some unexpected error, like an unknown option or
a failure to read a file. Exit status `2` is returned if there are syntax errors

exit status `3` is returned if there are some issues which can't be resolved
automatically. For example, if you have a very long comment line `rustfmt`
doesn't split it. Instead it prints a warning and exits with `3`.

## Tips
```
* When you run rustfmt, place a file named `rustfmt.toml` or `.rustfmt.toml` in
target file directory or its parents to override the default settings of
- rustfmt.
+ rustfmt. You can generate a file containing the default configuration with
+ `rustfmt --dump-default-config rustfmt.toml` and customize as needed.
* After successful compilation, a `rustfmt` executable can be found in the
target directory.
* If you're having issues compiling Rustfmt (or compile errors when trying to
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(rustc --print sysroot)/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
```
+On Windows (Git Bash/Mingw):
+
+```
+export PATH=$(rustc --print sysroot)/lib/rustlib/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/lib/:$PATH
+```
+
+(Substitute `x86_64` by `i686` and `gnu` by `msvc` depending on which version of rustc was used to install rustfmt).
