Add custom indentation length support #431

Open 3timeslazy opened 2 weeks ago

3timeslazy commented 2 weeks ago

The PR introduces new --indent flag. The flag's value follows the pattern {number}{t | s}, where

{t | s} stands for either tabs or spaces
{number} - the number of tabs/spaces used for indentation

Examples:

To use 4 spaces: alejandra -i 4 file.nix or alejandra -i 4s file.nix
To use tabs: alejandra --indent 1t

Addresses: https://github.com/kamadorueda/alejandra/issues/415

The flag above is my proposal, but I’m open to any alternatives :)
