How to modify tab indentation.

[lliuaotian]

Hello, my English is not good, so the next question I use is Google Translate. The question I want to ask is that I am used to tab indentation of 4 spaces, and Spacevim defaults to 2 indents. It makes me very headache, and the vertical line mark tab of Spacevim is also based on 2 spaces. I don't know how to modify it.

It should be:

[options]
    default_indent = 8
    expand_tab = false

but I recommand to use editorconfig, this plugin has been included in SpaceVim.

[lliuaotian]

thank you.

this seems not working for python! is that because of the pep standard?

[wsdjeg]

Becasue some python ftplugin change this config, I can not fix it. you need to find which plugin change this, and disable that plugin for python.

[xiuliren]

thanks. which ftplugins do SpaceVim have?

It seems that the plugin vim-python-pep8-indent is forcing it following the pep8 standard, which requires the indent to be 4.

[wsdjeg]

yeah, you can try to disable that plugin.

can I specify different indent for different languages? such as indent 4 for python and indent 2 for C++. I tried to set default_indent=2 in layers section, but do not work.

@jingpengw did you find a solution?

[xiuliren]

"The default_indent option will be applied to vim’s &tabstop, &softtabstop and &shiftwidth options." Code-indentation

First of all, reset all of such forcing commands after SpaceVim initialized. Although you didn't change these settings before, these commands were already setup by SpaceVim, making all other indent-related settings not working.

Bootstrap functions Modify and add commands like this as below

function! myspacevim#after() abort
    "" Add your codes here
    set tabstop&
    set softtabstop&
    set shiftwidth&
endfunction

Then, you can do whatever you want with other formatters
