XAlign
An amazing Xcode plugin to align regular code. It can align anything by using custom alignment patterns.
What's XAlign
Here are some example alignment patterns. Of course you can make your own. The pattern file is here: XAlign/patterns.plist
, and the patterns are based on regular expression.
Tips:
- You may not like the alignment style below, try it yourself or tell me at the [Issues]. :)
- There is no need to align all codes at a time when they are complicated, try to align by group which the codes are more similar in.
- 对齐不需要一次全部对齐,可以分组多对几次,那些等号差的太远的就别让它参与对齐了。
- 默认对齐的风格不是你喜欢的,可以自定义,或者提个 Issues。
Align by equals sign
Align by define group
Align by property group
Todo:
- Much easier to customize alignment patterns.
