What is detect-indent?

The detect-indent npm package is designed to analyze a given piece of text and determine the indentation style used. This can be particularly useful in scenarios where maintaining consistent code formatting is crucial, such as in collaborative coding projects. It can detect both spaces and tabs used for indentation and provide information about the most used indentation type and size.

What are detect-indent's main functionalities?

Detecting indentation from a string

This feature allows you to pass a string of text to the `detectIndent` function, which analyzes the indentation used in the text. It returns an object containing the amount of indentation, the type of indentation (spaces or tabs), and the actual indentation string.

const detectIndent = require('detect-indent');
const code = '  const x = 1;\n  const y = 2;';
const indent = detectIndent(code);
console.log(indent); // {amount: 2, type: 'space', indent: '  '}
