Indenting code in Sublime text 2?

In Visual Studio I can press Ctrl+K+D to indent everything so the code is structured nicely and readable. Is there a shortcut in Sublime 2 to do the same?

Solution 1:

You can find it in Edit → Line → Reindent, but it does not have a shortcut by default. You can add a shortcut by going to the menu Preferences → Keybindings → User, then add there:

{ "keys": ["f12"], "command": "reindent", "args": {"single_line": false} }

(example of using the F12 key for that functionality)

The config files use JSON-syntax, so these curly braces have to be placed comma-separated in the square-brackets that are there by default. If you don't have any other key-bindings already, then your whole Keybindings → User file would look like this, of course:

[
    { "keys": ["f12"], "command": "reindent", "args": {"single_line": false}}
]

Solution 2:

The reindent command only works on the currently selected lines unless the "single_line" argument is set to false.

{ "keys": ["f12"], "command": "reindent", "args": {"single_line": false} }

Now, pressing f12 will reindent the entire document.

No one seems to love mac re-indentation, So here How I do it:

[
   { "keys": ["command+shift+i"], "command": "reindent"}
]

In Preferences > Key Binding - User

One more extra tip: add

{ "keys": ["command+0"], "command": "focus_side_bar" }

to have sidebar file tree view navigation using keyboard.

Note: Add , at the end of each {}, if you have more than one {} set of objects

Solution 4:

There is no default shortcut for reindenting a file. However you can create one by following eznme's answer above.

You can also use the Command Palette by pressing:

Control+Shift+P (or ⌘+Shift+P on a Mac)
Type the first few characters of Reindent e.g: rein
Press Enter to run the command
(The first command at the top should now show Indentation: Reindent Lines)

Solution 5:

For those interested it is easy to change but for a lover of Netbeans and the auto-format you can change the key binding from F12 to ctrl+shift+F to use your beloved key binding. Sad part is that you have to select all to format the entire file. Netbeans still has the upper hand on that. If anyone knows how to overcome that limitation I'm all ears. Otherwise happy reindenting (auto-formating).
