Other Data Support

[Glavin001]

• SQL, See https://github.com/vkiryukhin/pretty-data
• CSS, by js-beauty
• JSON, with comments
• XML, see Quick fix to beautify XML files #3

@donaldpipowitch @karolyi what do you think about support for SQL and JSON, and using pretty-data? Is it a direction we want to go?

[karolyi]

jsbeautifier should be able to parse json files, is there something similar JS-based for SQL?

having the foundation laid down, it shouldn't be a big issue.

(btw JSON should be able to beautifiy with JSON.stringify)

Yeah, I usually use JSON.stringify, good point.

Looks like that is how they implement it, too: https://github.com/vkiryukhin/pretty-data/blob/master/pretty-data.js#L135-L144

is there something similar JS-based for SQL

pretty-data supports SQL: https://github.com/vkiryukhin/pretty-data/blob/master/pretty-data.js#L181-L288

Well then, waiting for your PR ;)

If you want to be the hero of the day, implement the beautifier for strip-json-comments too :)

I'll see what I can do later tonight ;).
