beautysh 6.2.1

Beautysh
This program takes upon itself the hard task of beautifying Bash scripts
(yeesh). Processing Bash scripts is not trivial, they aren't like C or Java
programs — they have a lot of ambiguous syntax, and (shudder) you can use
keywords as variables. Years ago, while testing the first version of this
program, I encountered this example:
done=0;while (( $done <= 10 ));do echo done=$done;done=$((done+1));done

Same name, but three distinct meanings (sigh). The Bash interpreter can sort out
this perversity, but I decided not to try to recreate the Bash interpreter to
beautify a script. This means there will be some border cases this Python
program won't be able to process. But in tests with large Linux system
Bash scripts, its error-free score was ~99%.
Installation
If you have pip set up you can do
pip install beautysh

or clone the repo and install:
git clone https://github.com/lovesegfault/beautysh
cd beautysh
poetry install

Usage
You can call Beautysh from the command line such as
beautysh file1.sh file2.sh file3.sh

in which case it will beautify each one of the files.
Available flags are:
--indent-size INDENT_SIZE, -i INDENT_SIZE
Sets the number of spaces to be used in indentation.
--backup, -b Beautysh will create a backup file in the same path as
the original.
--check, -c Beautysh will just check the files without doing any
in-place beautify.
--tab, -t Sets indentation to tabs instead of spaces.
--force-function-style FORCE_FUNCTION_STYLE, -s FORCE_FUNCTION_STYLE
Force a specific Bash function formatting. See below
for more info.
--version, -v Prints the version and exits.
--help, -h Print this help message.

Bash function styles that can be specified via --force-function-style are:
fnpar: function keyword, open/closed parentheses, e.g. function foo()
fnonly: function keyword, no open/closed parentheses, e.g. function foo
paronly: no function keyword, open/closed parentheses, e.g. foo()

You can also call beautysh as a module:
from beautysh import Beautify

source = "my_string"

result, error = Beautify().beautify_string(source)

As written, beautysh can beautify large numbers of Bash scripts when called
from a variety of means,including a Bash script:
#!/bin/sh

for path in `find /path -name '*.sh'`
do
beautysh $path
done

As well as the more obvious example:
$ beautysh *.sh


CAUTION: Because Beautysh overwrites all the files submitted to it, this
could have disastrous consequences if the files include some of the
increasingly common Bash scripts that have appended binary content (a regime
where Beautysh has undefined behaviour ). So please — back up your files,
and don't treat Beautysh as a harmless utility. Even if that is true
most of the time.

Beautysh handles Bash here-docs with care(and there are probably some
border cases it doesn't handle). The basic idea is that the originator knew what
format he wanted in the here-doc, and a beautifier shouldn't try to outguess
him. So Beautysh does all it can to pass along the here-doc content
unchanged:
if true
then

echo "Before here-doc"

# Insert 2 lines in file, then save.
#--------Begin here document-----------#
vi $TARGETFILE <<x23LimitStringx23
i
This is line 1 of the example file.
This is line 2 of the example file.
^[
ZZ
x23LimitStringx23
#----------End here document-----------#

echo "After here-doc"

fi

Special comments @formatter:off and @formatter:on are available to disable formatting around a block of statements.
# @formatter:off
command \
--option1 \
--option2 \
--option3 \
# @formatter:on

This takes inspiration from the Eclipse feature.
Contributing
Contributions are welcome and appreciated, however test cases must be added to
prevent regression. Adding a test case is easy, and involves the following:

Create a file tests/fixtures/my_test_name_raw.sh containing the unformatted version
of your test case.
Create a file tests/fixtures/my_test_name_formatted.sh containing the formatted version
of your test case.
Register your test case in tests/test_integration.py, It should look
something like this:

def test_my_test_name(self):
self.assert_formatting("my_test_name")
