Re: [aerogear-dev] JavaScript formatter

Hi, I saw that there was some discussion about whitespace in a javascript file on a PR yesterday. Now it seems to me that among the things to discuss whitespace is just noise, especially because formatting can be done automatically. Talking with qmx and lholmquist about this it seems that JS land doesn't have good tools for this. To have something in the mean time we could use something like the eclipse formatter, because it can format JS has a ton of options and there are already a lot of external tools that use it: https://github.com/krasa/EclipseCodeFormatter https://code.google.com/p/maven-java-formatter-plugin http://liviutudor.com/2012/03/02/batch-source-formatting-in-eclipse-indigo/ So how about having something like this that will format our JS for us? We could integrate something like this in our build, or that or create our own CLI tool as long as we have something that will work so that we don't have to discuss formatting anymore, what do you think?

Cheers, Erik Jan
