Versions:
GDScript Formatter is a code formatting tool published by GDQuest, currently at version 0.25.0 with two versions available in total. Its purpose is to provide a fast code formatter for GDScript, the programming language of the Godot game engine, with a specific focus on Godot 4. The tool falls into the developer tools and code quality category, serving as a utility for Godot developers who want to enforce consistent code styling in their projects. It is built using Tree Sitter GDScript and Topiary, technologies that enable rapid parsing and formatting of source code. The project was created to fill a gap in the Godot ecosystem: while an official formatter built directly into the engine remains unavailable, this tool offers a production-ready alternative that operates in user space. This approach allowed the developers to deliver a working tool quickly and to continue releasing updates at any time, independent of the engine's release cycle. The stated goals of the project emphasize speed, ease of contribution, and maintainability, making it accessible to community contributors who wish to improve or extend the formatter. The tool aims to follow the official GDScript style guide, ensuring that formatted code aligns with the conventions recommended by the Godot project itself. Typical use cases include automatically formatting GDScript files in Godot 4 projects, standardizing code style across a team or codebase, and integrating formatting into development workflows where consistency and readability are priorities.
