Formatting/Indenting YAML Documents
Oxygen XML Editor includes support for formatting and indenting YAML
documents. You can trigger a format and indent operation for your YAML document using the
Format and Indent toolbar
button.
Some of the formatting actions that are performed include:
- Indents the document with the indent size specified in the preferences page.
- Removes empty lines and extra spaces between keys and values.
- Compacts the string values (for example, description) and limits it to 80 characters on a row.
To batch format/indent multiple YAML files, select and right-click the
files in the Project view, then select
Format and Indent
Files.
