. So either indent
or indent_size
may be used.

unformatted

Attention: Make sure you play around with the settings and view the HTML in the browser. Pay special attention to whitespace around links and other inline elements, such as <strong>
and <span>
. If you specify a list of elements to remain unformatted
, you will definitely need to make sure that whitepace is rendering the way you want it to.

file for controlling the task's options.
grunt;
The default options are set to:
Custom Options
You can also specify the options in the Gruntfile if you wish, like this:
prettify: options: indent: 2 indent_char: ' ' wrap_line_length: 78 brace_style: 'expand' unformatted: 'a' 'sub' 'sup' 'b' 'i' 'u' ...
Example configurations for prettifying one file at a time, or entire directories of files:
prettify: options: config: '.prettifyrc' // Prettify a directory of files all: expand: true cwd: 'test/actual/ugly/' ext: '.html' src: '*.html' dest: 'test/actual/pretty/' // Or prettify one file at a time using the "files object" format files: 'pretty/index.html': 'ugly/index.html' // Or the "compact" src-dest format one: src: 'test/actual/ugly/index.html' dest: 'test/actual/pretty/index.html'
See the [grunt][] docs for more information about task configuration.
