Configuration
Configuration for scalafmt is defined in a plain text file .scalafmt.conf
using HOCON syntax.
Here is an example .scalafmt.conf:
align.preset = more // For pretty alignment.
maxColumn = 100 // For my wide 30" display.
Most popular
maxColumn
Default: maxColumn = 80
- Keep in mind that 80 characters fit perfectly on a split laptop screen with regular resolution.
- GitHub mobile view only shows 80 characters and sometimes you might review code on your phone.
- Consider refactoring your code before of choosing a value above 100.
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin
This parameter simply says the .stripMargin method was not redefined by the
user to assign special meaning to indentation preceding the | character.
Hence, that indentation can be modified.
# Defaults
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin = false
align.stripMargin = true
If true, lines starting with the margin character | (or another if specified
in the .stripMargin(...) call) will be indented differently.
If align.stripMargin is true, they will align with the opening triple-quote
""" in interpolated and raw string literals. Otherwise, they will be indented
relative to the start of the opening line.
val example1 =
s"""Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
val example1 =
s"""Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
Config for this example:
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin = true
align.stripMargin = true
val example1 =
s"""|Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
val example1 =
s"""|Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
Config for this example:
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin = true
align.stripMargin = false
The pipe character can immediately follow the opening """
val example2 =
s"""|Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
val example2 =
s"""|Examples:
| * one
| * two
| * $three
|""".stripMargin
Config for this example:
assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin = true
align.stripMargin = true
Version
The version parameter specifies the release of the formatter to be used.
If the version requested is different from the version of the installed
formatter, the correct release will be downloaded dynamically.
Since v3.1.0, the
versionparameter is required to be specified explicitly.
Scala Dialects
The formatter supports various dialects defined and supported by scalameta parser. However,
for any given file, one and only one dialect is supported, and runner.dialect must be
used to select it.
Since v3.1.0, the
runner.dialectparameter is required to be specified explicitly.
Available dialects are:
scala211scala212scala212source3scala213scala213source3scala3sbt0137sbt1
You can also specify runner.dialect for a subset of files using fileOverride:
fileOverride {
"glob:**/scala3-subproject/src/main/scala/**" {
runner.dialect = scala3
}
}
runner.dialectOverride
Since v3.6.0
Using this section, you can explicitly set
scalameta Dialect fields
(directly or via their associated withXxxYyy methods).
// top-level def: unsupported by scala213
def foo = // significant indent: unsupported by scala213
bar
baz
end foo // end marker: unsupported by scala213
// top-level def: unsupported by scala213
def foo = // significant indent: unsupported by scala213
bar
baz
end foo // end marker: unsupported by scala213
Config for this example:
runner.dialect = scala213
runner.dialectOverride.withAllowToplevelTerms = true
runner.dialectOverride.withAllowEndMarker = true
runner.dialectOverride.allowSignificantIndentation = true
Scala 3
Since v3.0.0, scalafmt supports Scala 3 features that can be enabled by changing
the dialect of the scalameta parser.
runner.dialect = scala3
---
open class MyOpenClass()
val myQuote = '{ expr }
val mySplice = ${ expr }
enum class Weekday {
case Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
}
Please also see rewrite rules for Scala 3.
Scala 2 with -Xsource:3
Also since v3.0.0, if using -Xsource:3 option for Scala 2 compiler, you can change the
dialect to Scala213Source3, which will allow to format some of the new syntax backported
from Scala 3.
Presets
Some sections provide preset values to set multiple parameters at once. These
are always accessed via the preset key of the appropriate section, including
top-level.
Top-level presets
preset=default: this preset is implicit and sets all values to their defaults.preset=IntelliJ: this preset is defined as
preset = default
indent.defnSite = 2
optIn.configStyleArguments = false
preset=defaultWithAlign: this preset is defined as
preset = default
align.preset = more
preset=Scala.js: this preset is defined as
preset = default
binPack.preset = true
align.openParenCtrlSite = false
indent.callSite = 4
docstrings.style = Asterisk
importSelectors = binPack
newlines {
neverInResultType = true
neverBeforeJsNative = true
sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnType = false
}
runner.optimizer {
forceConfigStyleOnOffset = 500
forceConfigStyleMinArgCount = 5
}
Appending to preset collections
If, instead of redefining the default or preset value of a list or a map parameter, you'd like to append to it, use the following syntax:
// set
a.b.c.list = [ ... ]
a.b.c.dict = { ... }
// append; "+" must be the only key
a.b.c.list."+" = [ ... ]
a.b.c.dict."+" = { ... }

indent.relativeToLhsLastLine
When the left-hand side of an infix or match expression is itself broken over
several lines, with the last line indented relative to the first line, this flag
determines whether the indent is relative to the first or the last line.
This parameter takes a list of values including:
match: applies to match expressionsinfix: applies to infix expressions
Default: indent.relativeToLhsLastLine = []
foo // c1
.bar match {
case baz => qux
}
foo // c1
.bar infix { case baz =>
qux
}
foo // c1
.bar match {
case baz => qux
}
foo // c1
.bar infix {
case baz => qux
}
Config for this example:
indent.relativeToLhsLastLine = []
foo // c1
.bar match {
case baz => qux
}
foo // c1
.bar infix { case baz =>
qux
}
foo // c1
.bar match {
case baz => qux
}
foo // c1
.bar infix {
case baz => qux
}
Config for this example:
indent.relativeToLhsLastLine = [match, infix]
Indent for binPack.unsafeCallSite
Normally, even when binpacking, there's a new level of indentation added for each opening parenthesis starting a nested argument clause (regardless whether the first argument follows the opening parenthesis on the same line or on a separate one); the parameters below modify this behaviour.
binPack.indentCallSiteOnce
When this parameter is enabled, only one level is added to the outermost call, regardless of the number of nested parentheses.
Default: binPack.indentCallSiteOnce = false
With the parameter enabled:
foo(bar1(baz1(qux1,
qux2), baz2),
bar2(baz3, baz4))
foo(bar1(baz1(qux1, qux2), baz2), bar2(baz3, baz4))
Config for this example:
binPack.unsafeCallSite = true
binPack.indentCallSiteOnce = true
indent.callSite = 2
maxColumn = 20
With the parameter disabled:
foo(bar1(baz1(qux1,
qux2), baz2),
bar2(baz3, baz4))
foo(bar1(baz1(qux1, qux2), baz2), bar2(baz3, baz4))
Config for this example:
binPack.unsafeCallSite = true
binPack.indentCallSiteOnce = false
indent.callSite = 2
maxColumn = 20
binPack.indentCallSiteSingleArg
When this parameter is disabled, no indentation is added for same-line single-arg cases; the assumption is that if the argument expression spans multiple lines, it will introduce its own indentation.
Default: binPack.indentCallSiteSingleArg = true
With the parameter enabled:
foo(bar(baz.qux(
xyz + zyx)))
foo(bar((_, _) =>
baz { qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
} baz //
{ qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
}
))
foo(bar(baz.qux(xyz + zyx)))
foo(bar((_, _) =>
baz { qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
} baz //
{ qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
}))
Config for this example:
binPack.unsafeCallSite = true
binPack.indentCallSiteSingleArg = true
indent.callSite = 2
maxColumn = 20
With the parameter disabled:
foo(bar(baz.qux(
xyz + zyx)))
foo(bar((_, _) =>
baz { qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
} baz //
{ qux =>
noop

))
foo(bar(baz.qux(xyz + zyx)))
foo(bar((_, _) =>
baz { qux =>
noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
} baz //

noop
} baz { qux =>
noop
}))
Config for this example:
binPack.unsafeCallSite = true
binPack.indentCallSiteSingleArg = false
indent.callSite = 2
maxColumn = 20
indentOperator
Normally, the first eligible break inside a chain of infix operators is indented by 2.
This group of parameters allows overriding which infix operators, and in which context, are eligible to be exempted from this, with indentation omitted.
If you wish to disable this functionality, set indentOperator.excludeRegex = '^$'.
indentOperator.exemptScope
Added in 3.4.0, this parameter determines when an infix operator can be exempted from applying continuation indentation.
It accepts the following values, to determine the context in which infix operators are eligible to be exempted from the default indentation rule:
oldTopLevel(default): "top-level" infix operators- the definition of top-level historically refers to infix expressions whose direct parent is
a block (typically as the last statement in that block),
if/while(as condition or body), or case clause (as pattern or body) - this value replaced deprecated
indentOperator.topLevelOnly=true - this approach is also somewhat inconsistent with what it was intended to accomplish, and kept only for backwards compatibility; please consider using one of the alternatives
- the definition of top-level historically refers to infix expressions whose direct parent is
a block (typically as the last statement in that block),
aloneEnclosed: infix operators which are enclosed in braces or parens as the only statement in a block or body of a braces-enclosed lambda function; anif/whilecondition; the only argument of a method call; or similar;- it also includes a few scenarios where parens can be omitted, such case clause patterns,
conditions in new scala3
if-thenandwhile-dosyntax, etc. - however, block braces are not optional
- it also includes a few scenarios where parens can be omitted, such case clause patterns,
conditions in new scala3
aloneArgOrBody: infix operators as anif/whilecondition; an argument of a method call; the only statement in a block; entire body of an assignment, case clause, control statement, etc;- it is intended to help implement a requirement of the scala-js coding style.
all: all infix operators- this value replaced deprecated
indentOperator.topLevelOnly=false
- this value replaced deprecated

indentOperator.excludeRegex
Defines a regular expression for excluded infix operators. If an eligible operator matches, it will not be indented.
In v3.1.0, this parameter was renamed from indentOperator.exclude.
Default: indentOperator.excludeRegex = "^(&&|\\|\\|)$"
indentOperator.includeRegex
Defines a regular expression for included infix operators. If an eligible operator matches and is not excluded explicitly by indentOperator.excludeRegex, it be will indented.
In v3.1.0, due to conflict with built-in HOCON keyword, this parameter was
renamed from indentOperator.include.
Default: indentOperator.includeRegex = ".*"
indentOperator.preset
default- use defaults for all fields
spray(alsoakka)- set
include = "^.*=$",exclude = "^$"

Alignment
Alignment describes formatting which inserts additional spaces to align certain tokens on different lines vertically.
Apart from a few special cases, the way alignment works is as follows:
- for each line, alignment stops are identified, by looking up each token in
align.tokens(matching token, owner and, if specified, the owner's parent) - for two candidate lines, respective alignment stops are compared (first stop on one line to the first one on the other, etc); the only exception are the single-line comments which are compared regardless of their stop position
- two tokens will match if:
- both tokens have the same token category; a token's category is the value
associated with its type in
align.tokenCategorymapping or, if missing, its type - both owners have the same tree category; similarly, a tree's category is the
value for its type in
align.treeCategorymapping or the type itself - both owners belong to the same "statement container"; this is determined internally and usually selects the nearest containing block, template, match, argument or parameter group.
- both tokens have the same token category; a token's category is the value
associated with its type in
- if two tokens match:
- if there's a space before them, they themselves will be aligned on the right
- if there's a space after them, the next tokens will be aligned on the left
Align has several nested fields, which you can customize. However, it comes with four possible presets: none, some, more, & most.
align.preset
Default: some
align.preset=none
x match { // false for case arrows
case 2 => 22 // also comments!
case 22 => 222 // don't align me!
}
x match { // false for case arrows
case 2 => 22 // also comments!
case 22 => 222 // don't align me!
}
Config for this example:
align.preset = none
Pro tip: Enable this setting to minimize git diffs/conflicts from renamings and other refactorings, without having to ignore whitespace changes in diffs or use
--ignore-all-spaceto avoid conflicts when git merging or rebasing.
Starting with the introduction of
align.stripMarginparameter in v2.5.0, one must explicitly enable it to get earlier behaviour ofalign.preset=none. See assumeStandardLibraryStripMargin.

Note. Only for the truest vertical aligners. Feel free to open PR enabling more crazy vertical alignment here. Expect changes.
align.tokens
Default: [caseArrow]
An align token contains a code (the string literal of an operator of token) and a list of
owners; each owner entry in turn contains an optional regex (the kind of the closest tree
node that owns that token), and a list of parents (to match the tree containing the owner of
the token).
To find the
ownerpart for a custom tree, look for its type prefix using ScalaFiddle Playgroud or AST Explorer.
The special code
//is used for single-line comments. Also, since v3.3.1, this includes multi-line comments/* ... */which do not themselves contain newlines but are followed by one (i.e., can trivially be changed to a//comment).
x match {
case 1 => 1 -> 2

Newlines
The newlines.* options are used to configure when and where scalafmt should
insert newlines.
You might be interested in the Vertical Multiline section.
newlines.source
Since v2.5.0.
This parameter controls the general approach to line breaks, and whether to take into account existing newlines in the source. The default value (if the parameter is not specified) is the classic, original way. Below are the alternatives.
These alternatives are EXPERIMENTAL and might change in the future without regard to any
editionsettings, until fully released (and this message deleted).
newlines.source=keep
This approach attempts to preserve line breaks in the input whenever possible.
newlines.source=fold,unfold
These two approaches completely ignore existing line breaks, except around comments and blank lines (i.e., multiple consecutive newlines).
Might require increasing runner limits (
runner.optimizer.maxVisitsPerToken, possibly evenrunner.maxStateVisits), to avoid SearchStateExploded exceptions.
fold attempts to remove line breaks whenever possible resulting in a more
horizontal, or vertically compact look.
unfold, on the other hand, is intended for those who prefer a more vertical,
or horizontally compact look.
Both settings attempt to play nice with other parameters, but some combinations are prohibited and will result in an error.
newlines.topLevelStatementBlankLines
Since v3.0.0.
This parameter controls when to add blank lines before and/or after a top-level statement (a member of a package or template; nesting is allowed but not within a block). Special cases:
- the rules do not directly apply to package statements at the top of the source file; however, if this parameter is non-empty, there will be at least one blank line before the first non-package statement, and possibly more if the rules match that statement
- end markers are handled through a setting for the statement they mark
- imports and exports are processed as a group of consecutive statements
- also see Newlines around package or template body
This parameter might reduce the number of blank lines but will not eliminate them completely unless corresponding value is negative.
Each entry on this list consists of the following fields (except blanks, all are used to match
whether the rule should apply):
regex- a regular expression to match the type of the statement
- if unspecified, will match all valid statements
- see align.tokens for instructions on how to find the type
maxNestand (since v3.1.2)minNest- basically, limits indentation level (not actual indentation) of a statement
- unindented statements (under source-level unindented package) have nest level of 0, those under them are 1 etc.
- if unspecified, will match any nesting level
minBreaks(default: 1)- sets the minimum number of line breaks between the first and last line of a statement (i.e., one less than the number of lines the statement spans).
- for instance,
minBreaks=0will apply to all statements, whereas 1 will require at least one line break (that is, a multi-line statement).
blanks- if omitted while the entry matches, serves to exclude another entry
before: number of lines to be added before a matching statement; if negative (v3.0.1), lines will be removed unless before a commentafter: number of lines to be added after a matching statement- for instance, if a
packagematches, this controls how many lines need to be added after all statements of a package, not after the first line which declares the package name - same logic as above applies to negative values
- for instance, if a
beforeEndMarker:- end markers themselves will not be matched against any rule; blanks before
them will come from
beforeEndMarkerand blanks after fromafter
- end markers themselves will not be matched against any rule; blanks before
them will come from
beforeAllandafterAll(v3.0.1): if set explicitly, replaces the respectivebeforeoraftervalue before the first or after the last statement of a template or indented package; otherwise, thebeforeoraftervalue will be capped at 1- can be specified as a single integer, to set just
beforeandafterto the same value:
// these two are equivalent
newlines.topLevelStatementBlankLines = [
{ blanks { before = 1, after = 1, beforeEndMarker = 0 } }
]
newlines.topLevelStatementBlankLines = [
{ blanks = 1 }
]
If you'd like to override or exclude some cases, add them explicitly:
newlines.topLevelStatementBlankLines = [
{ maxNest = 0, blanks = 2 } // uses 2 blanks for all unindented statements
{ regex = "^Import" } // excludes import groups; blanks are not specified
]
If multiple entries match a statement, an entry with the lowest
minBreakswill be selected. Since we'll be adding lines, this will increase the span of the statement and might potentially lead to another entry, with a higherminBreaks, to match as well, which is undesirable.

Since v3.0.0
This section controls whether to force a break before a multi-line body of an
assignment expression unless it can be formatted on a single line (or is enclosed
in braces). By default, the rule is disabled. It takes precedence
over newlines.beforeMultiline settings.
It can take the following values:
never: the rule is disabledany: applies to any assignment expression (def, assignment to avar, default value of a method parameter, etc.)def: applies only to definitions which can potentially be parameterized (def,macro,givenalias, etc.)anyMember: applies to members of aclass/trait/objecttopMember: applies to members of aclass/trait/objectwhich itself can only be nested within a sequence ofclass/trait/objectdefinitions
It replaces deprecated newlines parameters beforeMultilineDef=unfold and
alwaysBeforeMultilineDef=true which, if this parameter is not set,
map to def.

newlines.forceBeforeMultilineAssign = never
newlines.forceBeforeAssign
Since v3.5.9
Default: newlines.forceBeforeAssign = "never"
This parameter takes precedence over
newlines.forceBeforeMultilineAssign
and uses the same values. The difference is, the rule forces a newline before a
matching assignment expression whether or not it can be formatted on a single line.
newlines.beforeTypeBounds
Since v3.0.0
This parameter controls formatting of bounds of type parameters: upper <:,
lower >:, view <%, and context : bounds. It accepts the
same values as newlines.source.

newlines.beforeCurlyLambdaParams
This parameter controls whether a newline is forced between the opening curly

newlines.afterCurlyLambdaParams
This parameter controls handling of newlines after the arrow following the parameters of a curly brace lambda or partial function, and whether a space can be used for one-line formatting of the entire function body (if allowed but the body doesn't fit, a break is always forced).
This parameter was renamed in 2.7.0 from afterCurlyLambda, for clarity and
consistency with beforeCurlyLambdaParams defined above.
Default: newlines.afterCurlyLambdaParams = "never"
// remove all blank lines if any
// one-line formatting is allowed
something.map { x => f(x) }
something.map { x => f(x) }
// remove all blank lines if any
// one-line formatting is allowed

newlines.implicitParamListModifierXXX
These parameters control newlines around implicit parameter list modifier.
Since v2.5.0.
Newlines around using parameter and argument list modifier
using soft keyword was introduced in Scala 3 and is supported in scalafmt.
Besides parameter lists, using can also be used with argument lists hence
provided rules will then also be applied to them.
Since v3.0.0.
The parameters defined below can also be accessed via their alternative names where
implicit is replaced with using (for instance, newlines.usingParamListModifierPrefer).
Whichever naming you use, formatting will be applied to both implicit and using.
Prefer After (default)
Prefers newline after
implicit. Newline will be added unless the entire implicit parameter list fits on a line, or config style is false. Newline can also be added before if the keyword itself would overflow the line.
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit
ev: Parser,
c: Context
): String
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit ev: Parser, c: Context): String
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 60
newlines.implicitParamListModifierPrefer = after
Prefer Before
Prefers newline before
implicit. Newline will not be added if the entire implicit parameter list fits on a line.
def format(code: String, age: Int)(
implicit ev: Parser,
c: Context
): String
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit ev: Parser, c: Context): String
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 60
newlines.implicitParamListModifierPrefer = before
Force Before
If set, forces newline before
implicit. Otherwise, newline can still be added if the keyword would overflow the line.
def format(code: String, age: Int)(
implicit ev: Parser,
c: Context
): String
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit ev: Parser, c: Context): String
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 60
newlines.implicitParamListModifierForce = [before]
Force After
If set, forces newline after
implicit. Otherwise, newline can still be added unlessbeforeis true, or the entire implicit parameter list fits on a line, or config style is false.
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit
ev: Parser,
c: Context
): String
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit ev: Parser, c: Context): String
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 60
newlines.implicitParamListModifierForce = [after]
Force both before and after
def format(code: String, age: Int)(
implicit
ev: Parser,
c: Context
): String
def format(code: String, age: Int)(implicit ev: Parser, c: Context): String
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 60
newlines.implicitParamListModifierForce = [before,after]
Implicit with optIn.configStyleArguments
While config-style normally requires a newline after the opening parenthesis,
postponing that break until after the implicit keyword is allowed if other
parameters require keeping this keyword attached to the opening brace.
Therefore, any of the parameters described in this section will take precedence
even when optIn.configStyleArguments = true is used.
newlines.afterInfix
Since v2.5.0.
This parameter (and its companions) controls formatting around infix expressions.
The default value depends on
newlines.source(see below).
newlines.afterInfix=keep
This approach preserves line breaks in the input. This is the original
behaviour, and default for newlines.source=classic,keep.
newlines.afterInfix=many,some
These approaches completely ignore existing newlines around infix, always use
a space before an infix operator and occasionally break after it. some is
default for newlines.source=fold, and many for newlines.source=unfold.
Might require increasing runner limits (
runner.optimizer.maxVisitsPerToken, possibly evenrunner.maxStateVisits), to avoid SearchStateExploded exceptions.
some will introduce fewer line breaks than many. Both will attempt to break
after
higher-precedence operators,
and both will always break before an expression enclosed in matching
parentheses.
newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerFile
Default: newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerFile = 500
If the total number of infix operations in the entire file exceeds
newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerFile, the formatter automatically switches to
newlines.afterInfix=keep for this file.
newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerExprForSome
Default: newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerExprForSome = 10
If newlines.afterInfix is set to some and the number of infix operations in
a given expression sequence (top-level or enclosed in parens/braces) exceeds
newlines.afterInfixMaxCountPerExprForSome, the formatter switches to many
for that sequence only.
newlines.afterInfixBreakOnNested
Default: newlines.afterInfixBreakOnNested = false
If enabled, will force line breaks around a nested parenthesized sub-expression in a multi-line infix expression.
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow
A list parameter (of comma-separated flags), with possible flags described
below. These flags relax formatting rules to allow occasional line overflow
(i.e., when line exceeds maxColumn) in simple cases instead of introducing a
newline.
Default: newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow = []
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow=[tooLong]
Since v2.6.0.
This flag tries to avoid introducing a newline if the line would overflow even with a newline.
object Example {
foo_bar_baz("the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog") {
println("")
}
foo_bar_baz(
"the quick brown fox jumps over a dog") {
println("")
}
}
object Example {
foo_bar_baz("the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog") {
println("")
}
foo_bar_baz("the quick brown fox jumps over a dog") {
println("")
}
}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 50
danglingParentheses.callSite = false
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow = [tooLong]
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow=[punct]
Since v2.6.0.
This flag tries to avoid a newline if the line would overflow only because of trailing punctuation (non-alphanum symbols of length 1).
With the flag set:
class Engine[TD, EI, PD, Q, P, A](
val dataSourceClassMap: Map[String, Class[_ <: BaseDataSource[TD, EI, Q, A]]]
) {}
class Engine[TD, EI, PD, Q, P, A](
val dataSourceClassMap: Map[
String,
Class[_ <: BaseDataSource[TD, EI, Q, A]]]) {}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 80
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow = [punct]
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow=[slc]
Since v3.0.0.
This flag tries to avoid a newline if the line would overflow only because of
trailing single-line comment (one which starts with //).
Also, since v3.3.1, this includes a trailing /* ... */ without embedded breaks.
intercept[TestException] {
val ct = Thread.currentThread() // comment
}
intercept[TestException] {
val ct = Thread.currentThread() // comment
}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 40
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow = [slc]
intercept[TestException] {
val ct =
Thread.currentThread() // comment
}
intercept[TestException] {
val ct = Thread.currentThread() // comment
}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 40
newlines.avoidForSimpleOverflow = []
newlines.avoidInResultType
If true, newlines in definition result type will only be used if formatting
without them is impossible. This parameter was added in 2.7.0, replacing
neverInResultType.
Default: newlines.avoidInResultType = false
// no newlines in result type
def permissionState(
a: A = js.native
): js.Promise[PushPermissionState] = js.native
// no newlines in result type
val permissionState
: js.Promise[PushPermissionState] = js.native
// can't format without newlines
implicit protected val td: TildeArrow {
type Out = RouteTestResult
} = TildeArrow.injectIntoRoute
// no newlines in result type
def permissionState(a: A = js.native): js.Promise[PushPermissionState] = js.native
// no newlines in result type
val permissionState: js.Promise[PushPermissionState] = js.native
// can't format without newlines
implicit protected val td: TildeArrow {
type Out = RouteTestResult } = TildeArrow.injectIntoRoute
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 40
newlines.avoidInResultType = true
newlines.neverBeforeJsNative = true
newlines.sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnType
If true, in some rare cases a newline could be added before the colon which delimits the return type in a method signature.
Normally, this will only happen if formatting otherwise will lead to line overflow or the return type spanning too many lines.
Also, see newlines.beforeOpenParenXxxSite below.
Default: newlines.sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnType = true
def someVeryLongMethodName
: Map[String, String] = ???
def someVeryLongMethodName: Map[String, String] = ???
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 40
newlines.sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnType = true
newlines.beforeOpenParenXxxSite
This parameter, if enabled, causes a parameter group which doesn't fit on the same line to be formatted separately, with a newline just before the opening parenthesis.
Since v3.0.0.
Use null (default) to disable it. Otherwise, takes the same values as
newlines.source (or explicit source to mirror the current
value of newlines.source).
Specific formatting depends on the value: for keep, will preserve a newline;
for unfold, will format every parameter group separately unless all fit on a
single line; fold will use a more compact formatting.
beforeOpenParenDefnSiteapplies to definitions (methods, ctors, macros, etc.)beforeOpenParenCallSiteapplies to invocations (method calls) and is only supported for scala3
Additional nuances:
- if
newlines.sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnTypeis true, a newline will be added before the colon unless the entire signature fits on a line (except when set tokeep). - if the corresponding
align.openParenXxxSiteis true, multi-line parameters will start on the same line as the opening parenthesis and align; otherwise, formatting will use a newline and an appropriate continuation indent. - if the corresponding
align.beforeOpenParenXxxSiteis true, when the first parameter group starts without a line break, subsequent parameter groups will be aligned to it.
# Defaults
newlines.beforeOpenParenDefnSite = null
newlines.beforeOpenParenCallSite = null

sometimesBeforeColonInMethodReturnType = false
}
newlines.selectChains
This parameter controls how select chains (sequences of .method invocations)
are formatted.
It takes the same values as newlines.source; use null
(default) to fall back on the current value of newlines.source.
Since v3.0.0.
keep: attempts to preserve breakfold: attempts to avoid breaksunfold: forces breaks on each select unless all fit on a single lineclassic(i.e.,nullandnewlines.sourceis not specified): see Classic select chains.
newlines.inInterpolation
This parameter controls how to format spliced scala code within string constants
(e.g., s"...", etc). Also see align.inInterpolation.
Default: newlines.inInterpolation = "allow"
Since v3.4.0.
allow: allows breaks within spliced code (original)- this option will not prevent line overflow even if
${is within bounds, because this option doesn't allow breaking right after${
- this option will not prevent line overflow even if
avoid: attemps to avoid breaks within the spliced code, regardless of line overflowoneline: formats the splice on a single line, or breaks after${if overflows
optIn.annotationNewlines
This boolean parameter controls newlines after annotations.
Default: optIn.annotationNewlines = true
Its behaviour depends on newlines.source:
optIn.annotationNewlines = true:newlines.source=fold: allows space before another annotationnewlines.source=unfold: forces break- otherwise: preserves space before or after an annotation
optIn.annotationNewlines = false:newlines.source=fold: allows space before a keyword or another annotationnewlines.source=unfold: allows space before another annotation- otherwise: allows space before a keyword
Newlines: danglingParentheses
While this parameter is not technically under the newlines section, it
logically belongs there.
danglingParentheses.defnSite
Default: danglingParentheses.defnSite = true
object a {
// defnSite
def method(
a: Int,
b: String
): Boolean
// callSite
method(
argument1,
argument2)
}
object a {

danglingParentheses.callSite
Default: danglingParentheses.callSite = true

method(
argument1,
argument2
)
}
object a {

// callSite
method(argument1, argument2)
}
Config for this example:
danglingParentheses.defnSite = false
danglingParentheses.callSite = true
maxColumn=25
danglingParentheses.ctrlSite
Since v2.5.0.
Forces dangling on open/close parens around control structures (if, while,
for) when line breaks must occur.
For optional braces in scala3, this parameter also controls whether to break
before then or do in a multi-line condition.
Default: danglingParentheses.ctrlSite = true
if (something) {
// nothing
}
if (
something_else
) {
// nothing
}
if (something) {

}
if (something_else) {

danglingParentheses.tupleSite
This parameter controls dangling of closing parentheses in tuples. If not
specified, will use the value of danglingParentheses.callSite.

(1, 2),
1,
3,
4,

3,
4,
4)

(1, 2),
1,
3,
4,
4)
Config for this example:
danglingParentheses.tupleSite = false
danglingParentheses.exclude
Since v2.5.0.
When the appropriate danglingParentheses flag (e.g., defnSite) has been set,
this parameter can be used to limit contexts where dangling is applied
(currently, class, trait, enum, extension and def are supported).
For backwards compatibility, the default depends on whether
Vertical Multiline mode is used. If it is, the default is
[class, trait]; otherwise, it's empty.
def other(a: String, b: String)(
c: String,
d: String) = a + b + c
other(a, b)(c, d)
def other(a: String, b: String)(c: String, d: String) = a + b + c
other(a, b)(c, d)
Config for this example:
indent.defnSite = 2
danglingParentheses.defnSite = true
danglingParentheses.exclude = [def]
Newlines: Config-style formatting
This formatting applies to argument lists in class definitions and method calls.
It normally involves a newline after the opening parenthesis (or after the
implicit keyword) and a newline before the closing parenthesis.
As part of the formatting output, arguments are output one per line (but this is not used in determining whether the source uses config-style formatting).
While this parameter is not technically under the newlines section, it
logically belongs there.
optIn.configStyleArguments
If true, applies config-style formatting:
- if single-line formatting is impossible
- if the source uses config-style and
newlines.source = classic/keep - if other parameters force config-style (see below)
Default: optIn.configStyleArguments = true
object a {
// keeps single line
def method1(a: Int, b: String): Boolean
// forces config style
def method2(
a: Int,
b: String,
c: String
): Boolean
// preserves config style
def method3(
a: Int,
b: String,
c: String
): Boolean
}
object a {
// keeps single line
def method1(a: Int, b: String): Boolean
// forces config style
def method2(a: Int, b: String, c: String): Boolean
// preserves config style
def method3(
a: Int, b: String, c: String
): Boolean
}
Config for this example:
optIn.configStyleArguments = true
maxColumn=45
Forcing config style
Controls parameters which trigger forced config-style formatting. All conditions must be satisfied in order for this rule to apply.
# Defaults
runner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleOnOffset = 150
runner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleMinArgCount = 2
runner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleOnOffset: applies to method calls; if positive, specifies the minimum character distance between the matching parentheses, excluding any whitespacerunner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleMinArgCountapplies to method calls; specifies the minimum number of arguments
object a {
// this is a definition, not a method call
def method(a: String, b: String = null): Boolean

}
Config for this example:
optIn.configStyleArguments = true
runner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleOnOffset = 5
runner.optimizer.forceConfigStyleMinArgCount = 2
maxColumn = 60
Rewrite Rules
To enable a rewrite rule, add it to the config like this
rewrite.rules = [Imports].
AvoidInfix
This rule replaces infix expressions a op b with proper method calls a.op(b).

The rule takes the following parameters:
rewrite.neverInfixparameter group which consists ofincludeFiltersandexcludeFilters, two lists of regular expressions, which determine which operators are eligible for this rewrite- (since 3.4.4)
rewrite.allowInfixPlaceholderArg(default:true) will not rewrite infix expressions if the argument is a solo placeholder (_or(_: Type))- this parameter does not control any other cases with the infix argument containing a placeholder character; some of them will never be rewritten as adding parentheses will change their syntactic meaning, and others will be rewritten as usual

Inserting braces
Warning: this rewrite might cause non-idempotent formatting, formatter might need to be run twice.
This rule cannot be used with
rewrite.scala3.insertEndMarkerMinLinesorrewrite.scala3.removeOptionalBraces == oldSyntaxToo.
This rewrite in essence provides the opposite of what RedundantBraces achieves,
and somewhat similar to Scala3's end marker rewrite rules.
The rule is applied after all whitespace decisions had been made and simply attempts to output curly braces around a single-statement block when it spans at least a given number of lines.
The rule is enabled by configuring rewrite.insertBraces:
minLines(default: 0, or disabled): the minimum number of lines to trigger the ruleallBlocks(default: false): compute maximum span of all blocks under the parent expression rather than just the statement to be enclosed in curly braces- this could be used to have consistent application of curly braces in expressions
with multiple sub-expressions (conditions or blocks), such as
if-else,try-finally,for-yield,do-whileetc.
- this could be used to have consistent application of curly braces in expressions
with multiple sub-expressions (conditions or blocks), such as
Here are some limitations:
- the rule might occasionally lead to non-idempotent formatting (that is, applying
the formatter a second time would produce a different result); some examples are:
- adding braces might overflow a line
- adding braces might lead to different indentation of infix expressions
- the rule will not be applied:
- unless the single statement is preceded by a newline; doing so would definitely lead to non-idempotent formatting
- if the statement is an infix expression which is not enclosed in parentheses and has a line break before an operator
- if the code uses Scala3 syntax with significant indentation

RedundantParens: infixSide
Since v3.5.4.
Parameter rewrite.redundantParens.infixSide controls how the rule applies
to expressions which are part of an outer infix expression (either left- or
right-hand side). Can take the following values:
null(default): rewrites only simple expressions (literals or identifiers)
// null+
foo & 0 // literal
foo & bar // identifier
// some+
foo & (bar.baz) // non-infix
foo & (bar + baz) // very high precedence infix

SortModifiers
Modifiers are sorted based on the given order. Affects modifiers of the following definitions: trait, class, object, type, and val+var, both as fields and class parameters.
implicit final private lazy val x = 42
implicit final private lazy val y = 42
final lazy private implicit val x = 42
lazy final implicit private val y = 42
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [SortModifiers]
class Test(implicit
final private val i1: Int,
final private val i2: String
)
class Test(
implicit
final private val i1: Int,
private final val i2: String
)
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [SortModifiers]
sealed protected[X] trait ADT
final private case object A1 extends ADT
final private case class A2(a: Int)
extends ADT
sealed protected[X] trait ADT
final private case object A1 extends ADT
private final case class A2(a: Int)
extends ADT
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [SortModifiers]
If you choose the non-default sort order then you have to specify all eight modifiers in the order you wish to see them. Hint: since some modifiers are mutually exclusive, you might want to order them next to each other.
implicit final override val x = 2
override implicit final val x = 2

PreferCurlyFors
Replaces parentheses into curly braces in for comprehensions that contain multiple enumerator generators.
for {
a <- as
b <- bs if b > 2
} yield (a, b)
for(a <- as; b <- bs if b > 2)
yield (a, b)
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [PreferCurlyFors]
This rule accepts the following settings:
rewrite.preferCurlyFors.removeTrailingSemicolonsOnly(default:false):- if
false(default), replaces all semicolons with a newline - if
true, keeps semicolons unless followed by a newline or single-line comment
- if
Imports
This rule applies to import or, in Scala 3, also export statements found
at the top level (source, package or class/object/trait level).
The logic also moves comments attached to each import statement or selector, as follows:
- all consecutive standalone comments before (no blank lines and not following some other token)
- the comment right after (possibly after a comma), on the same line
- only single-line (
//) comments are supported; multiline (/*) comments will not be moved and in many cases will likely be removed instead
Since v3.0.0.
Imports: expand
This parameter will attempt to create a separate line for each selector
within a {...}. It replaces the deprecated rule ExpandImportSelectors.
Default: rewrite.imports.expand = false

Config for this example:

Imports: sort = none
This default option causes no sorting.
Imports: sort = original
Replaces the deprecated rule SortImports.
The imports are sorted by the groups: symbols, lower-case, upper-case.
import foo.{bar, sand, Random, Zilch}
import foo.{Zilch, bar, Random, sand}
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [Imports]
rewrite.imports.sort = original
Imports: sort = ascii
Replaces the deprecated rule AsciiSortImports.
The imports are sorted by their Ascii codes.
import foo.{Random, `symbol`, bar, ~>}
import foo.{~>, `symbol`, bar, Random}
Config for this example:
rewrite.rules = [Imports]
rewrite.imports.sort = ascii
Imports: sort = scalastyle
- Selectors are sorted in a case-insensitive manner (ascii on lowercase), except by first character as follows: non-wildcard symbols, lowercase, uppercase, wildcard.
- If grouping, import statements are also sorted using case-insensitive order, except by first character in every dot-separated label as follows: symbols (including wildcard), uppercase, lowercase.
import foo._
import foo.`qux`.{`symbol`, ~>, bar, Random}
import foo.Baz.{bar => xyz, _}
import foo.bar.{`symbol`, ~>, bar, Random}
import foo.bar.{Random, bar, ~>, `symbol`}

import foo._
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 50
rewrite.rules = [Imports]
rewrite.imports.sort = scalastyle
rewrite.imports.groups = [["foo\\..*"]]
Imports: groups
Keep in mind that this functionality should be used very carefully if hierarchical (relative) imports are allowed in your codebase. Groups should only refer to typical top-level domains such as
java,org,comorscala, and sorting should be disabled.The safest way to handle this case is by using
scalafixwith a semantic rule likeOrganizeImports. However, on a large codebase, the overhead of using semanticscalafixrules might be substantial.
This rule will separate all import statements into groups. If sorting is
enabled (i.e., not none), imports will also be sorted within each group.
The rule accepts the following parameters:
rewrite.imports.groups: defines several sets of regular expressions- each set defines a single group, and the groups are output in the order they are configured
- imports not matching any of the regexes will form their own group at the end
- regular expressions are applied to the entire parent domain of the import statement, up to and including the final dot
- the longest patterns are applied first
rewrite.imports.contiguousGroups(since v3.0.2):- if
only(default), only consecutive import statements will be grouped - if
no, grouping will happen on all imports within the same container (source, package, template etc.)
- if
import foo.Baz.{bar => xyz, _}
import foo._
import foo.`qux`.{
Random,
`symbol`,
bar,
~>
}
import bar._
import bar.`qux`.{
Random,

Trailing commas
See SIP
The rule handles how trailing commas are treated in case of a dangling closing delimiter (parenthesis or bracket for definitions or invocations, brace for import statements only).
Regardless of the setting, trailing commas are always removed if the closing delimiter is not dangling (i.e., follows the final argument without a line break).
This logic is not triggered via the
rewrite.rulesparameter, but by setting parameters within therewrite.trailingCommassection (since v3.0.5; prior to that there was a single top-leveltrailingCommasparameter).
Default: rewrite.trailingCommas.style = "never"
Trailing commas: never

rewrite.trailingCommas.allowFolding
This parameter controls whether the trailing comma must be maintained (except
for never), or the code can be folded to avoid a dangling closing delimiter
which is required by Scala after a trailing comma.
Since v3.0.5
Default: rewrite.trailingCommas.allowFolding = true
If set to false, the trailing comma will always be forced.
Scala3 rewrites
This section describes rules which are applied if the appropriate dialect (e.g.,
runner.dialect = scala3) is selected.
This logic is not triggered via the
rewrite.rulesparameter, but by setting parameters underrewrite.scala3subsection.
rewrite.scala3.convertToNewSyntax
If this flag is enabled, the following new syntax will be applied:
- control syntax
- if dialect sets
allowSignificantIndentation
- if dialect sets
- vararg splices
- vararg
: _*or@ _*to*if dialect setsallowPostfixStarVarargSplices
- vararg
- imports
- import wildcard
_to*if dialect setsallowStarWildcardImport - import rename
=>toasif dialect setsallowAsForImportRename
- import wildcard
- wildcards
- type wildcard
_to?if dialect setsallowQuestionMarkAsTypeWildcard - anonymous type param
*to_if dialect setsallowUnderscoreAsTypePlaceholder
- type wildcard
NB: You could control these rules individually by overriding dialect properties.
rewrite.scala3.removeOptionalBraces
If this flag is enabled, optional braces will be removed and significant indentation applied.
The flag takes the following values:
no: disabledyes: applies to expressions using the new control syntax (orrewrite.scala3.convertToNewSyntaxis set)oldSyntaxToo: applies also to expressions using deprecated syntax
rewrite.scala3.insertEndMarkerMinLines
If this flag is set to a positive value, when an expression containing an optional braces region spans at least as many lines and isn't followed by an end marker, one will be inserted.
We will not insert end markers if the statement is not part of a template body, or a multi-stat block. Doing so might turn a single-stat expression (which doesn't require significant indentation handling) into a multi-stat block.
rewrite.scala3.removeEndMarkerMaxLines
If this flag is set to a positive value, when an expression containing an optional braces region spans at most as many lines and is followed by a standalone end marker (i.e., no other tokens on that line, including comments), the line containing the end marker will be deleted.
We will not remove end markers if
- the statement is not part of a template body, or a block with at least 3 statements. Doing so might turn a multi-stat expression (which requires significant indentation handling) into a single-stat.
- there are comments before the end marker, as without the end marker they would be treated as outside of the optional-braces region.
rewrite.scala3.countEndMarkerLines
Since v3.0.6.
This flag dictates which part of the expression terminated by the end marker
is used to calculate the span for the purposes of applying
insertEndMarkerMinLines and
removeEndMarkerMaxLines.
all(default): the entire expressionlastBlockOnly: only the last block with significant indentation relative to the start of the said expression (as a replacement for the closing curly brace which would have been used otherwise); for instance:- in case of a class, this would be the body of the class
- but for an if-else, this would be just the
elsepart
Vertical Multiline
Since: v1.6.0.
If enabled this formats methods such that parameters are on their own line
indented by indent.defnSite.
Separation between parameter groups are indented by two spaces less than
indent.defnSite. The return type is on its own line at the end.
This formatting is only triggered if the method definition exceeds the maxColumn value in width or if the number of arguments to the method exceeds the
verticalMultiline.arityThreshold.

Project
Configure which source files should be formatted in this project.
project.git
If this boolean flag is set, only format files tracked by git.
project.include/exclude
Since v3.0.0.
# Defaults
project.includePaths = ["glob:**.scala", "glob:**.sbt", "glob:**.sc"]
project.excludePaths = []
Allows specifying
PathMatcher
selection patterns to identify further which files are to be formatted (explicit glob: or
regex: prefixes are required; keep in mind that PathMatcher patterns must match the entire
path).
For instance,
project {
includePaths = [
"glob:**.scala",
"regex:.*\\.sc"
]
excludePaths = [
"glob:**/src/test/scala/**.scala"
]
}
project.layout
Allows specifying a project structure naming convention which can be used to
select an appropriate dialect for cross-building if one is explicitly selected
via fileOverride. By default, it's disabled (null).
Currently, the following options are supported:
- (since v3.2.0)
StandardConvention: this is the usual naming convention putting scala source code undersrc/main/scalaorsrc/test/scala, with alternate cross-build dialects insrc/main/scala-2.13
If this parameter is set, some supported dialects will be determined automatically;
if the detected dialect is compatible with the overall one (runner.dialect),
no change will be applied.
Currently, supports scala binary versions 2.10-2.13 as well as 3; also, if the version
is major scala 2 (i.e., scala-2), will select the scala 2.13 dialect.
fileOverride
Since v2.5.0.
Allows specifying an additional subset of parameters for each file matching a PathMatcher pattern. For instance,
align.preset = none
fileOverride {
"glob:**.sbt" {
align.preset = most
}
"glob:**/src/test/scala/**.scala" {
maxColumn = 120
binPack.unsafeCallSite = true
}
}
uses align.preset=none for all files except .sbt for which
align.preset=most will apply. It will also use different parameters for test
suites.
This parameter does not modify which files are formatted.
File names will be matched against the patterns in the order in which they are specified in the configuration file, in case multiple patterns match a given file.
The parameter also allows the following shortcuts:
- (since v3.2.0) setting only the dialect:
fileOverride { "glob:**/*.sbt" = sbt1 }
- (since v3.2.0) setting based on the file extension:
fileOverride { ".sbt" { runner.dialect = sbt1 } }- this is simply a shortcut for
glob:**.ext
- (since v3.2.0) setting based on the language:
fileOverride { "lang:scala-2" = scala213 }- requires project.layout (sets dialect for minor versions)
- these patterns will be matched last

Controls binpacking around defn or call sites. The following parameter
values are supported since v3.0.0:
Neverdisables the functionality (also takesfalse)Alwaysenables the functionality (also takestrue)Onelineensures multiline arguments are not binpacked
danglingParentheses.xxxSitewill be ignored ifoptIn.configStyleArgumentsis set since binpacking and listing each argument/parameter on a separate line are at odds.
Please also see callSite indentation parameters.
binPack.bracketXxxSite
Since v3.0.4.
If set explicitly, will be used for type arguments or parameters,
instead of the respective binPack.unsafeXxxSite.
binpacking of importSelectors
Import selectors (those grouped in {...}) will always be formatted on a single
line if they fit without exceeding maxColumn. This parameter controls how they
will be handled if they overflow.
Default: importSelectors = "noBinPack"
Takes the following parameters:
noBinPack: format one per linebinPack: binpack, with as many as would fit on each linesingleLine: format all on one line
Classic select chains
The parameters below control formatting of select chains when
newlines.source = classic, and specifically which select expressions are
included in a chain.
Generally, a chain can either be formatted on one line up to the last select, or will have a break on the first select.
includeCurlyBraceInSelectChains
Controls if select followed by curly braces can start a chain.

optIn.breakChainOnFirstMethodDot
Keeps the break on the first select of the chain if the source contained one. Has no effect if there was no newline in the source.
Default: optIn.breakChainOnFirstMethodDot = true
// collapse into a single line
foo.map(_ + 1).filter(_ > 2)
// collapse into a single line
foo
.map(_ + 1)
.filter(_ > 2)
Config for this example:
optIn.breakChainOnFirstMethodDot = false
// preserve break on first dot and break on subsequent dots
foo
.map(_ + 1)
.filter(_ > 2)
// preserve break on first dot and break on subsequent dots
foo
.map(_ + 1).filter(_ > 2)
Config for this example:
optIn.breakChainOnFirstMethodDot = true
optIn.breaksInsideChains
Controls whether to preserve a newline before each subsequent select when the very first one used a line break; that is, this parameter doesn't prohibit single-line formatting even if there are source breaks down the chain.
If false, each subsequent select within the chain will behave exactly like the first, that is, either the entire chain will be formatted on one line, or will contain a break on every select.
If true, preserves existence or lack of breaks on subsequent selects if the first select was formatted with a newline.
Default: optIn.breaksInsideChains = false

optIn.encloseClassicChains
Controls what happens if a chain enclosed in parentheses is followed by additional selects. Those additional selects will be considered part of the enclosed chain if and only if this flag is false.
Since v2.6.2.
Default: optIn.encloseClassicChains = false
(foo.map(_ + 1).map(_ + 1))
.filter(_ > 2)
(foo.map(_ + 1).map(_ + 1))

Miscellaneous
rewriteTokens
Map of tokens to rewrite. For example, Map("⇒" -> "=>") will rewrite unicode arrows to regular ascii arrows.
Default: rewriteTokens = {}
val tuple = "a" -> 1
val lambda = (x: Int) => x + 1
for {
a <- Option(1)
b <- Option(2)
} yield a + b
val tuple = "a" → 1
val lambda = (x: Int) ⇒ x + 1
for {
a ← Option(1)
b ← Option(2)
} yield a + b
Config for this example:
rewriteTokens = {
"⇒": "=>"
"→": "->"
"←": "<-"
}
importSelectors
This parameter controls formatting of imports.
Default: importSelectors = "noBinPack"
import a.b.{
c,
d,
e,
f,
g
}
import a.b.{c, d, e, f, g}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 10
importSelectors = noBinPack
import a.b.{
c, d, e,
f, g
}
import a.b.{c, d, e, f, g}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 10
importSelectors = binPack
import a.b.{c, d, e, f, g}
import a.b.{c, d, e, f, g}
Config for this example:
maxColumn = 10
importSelectors = singleLine
Markdown Formatting
Since v3.0.0.
Will format all scala mdoc fences inside Markdown files.
# Format default filetypes + Markdown files
project.includePaths."+" = ["glob:**.md"]
# *Only* format Markdown files
project.includePaths = [ "glob:**.md" ]
Before:
Markdown prose beginning.
```scala mdoc
val x = 3
```
Markdown prose end.
After:
Markdown prose beginning.
```scala mdoc
val x = 3
```
Markdown prose end.
Edition
Removed in 2.7.0
Editions are no longer used. They were kept for backwards compatibility with old
configuration files but new changes to the default Scalafmt formatting behavior
will not respect the edition setting.
Other
To find all available configuration options, it's best to browse the source code
of Scalafmt. A good place to start is ScalafmtConfig. Observe that this
listing below is the top-level, there are more configuration options if you
visited nested fields like spaces and newlines.
The values for parameters below are purely for informational purposes. They use pseudo-formatting similar to but incompatible with
scalafmt.conf. Some of them show values which can't be explicitly specified.
