About StyLua Formatting

[insyri]

StyLua

In this repository, StyLua is used to format Lua once a pull request or push is made. What is this? Best way to put it is through an example:

local   bar   =   false
local  baz      = 0

bruh, let's use StyLua to format this.

local bar = false
local baz = 0

Okay, but no one's ever going to do that (?), let's try a 'good practice' fix:

local Object = {ClassName = "Object"}
Object.__tostring = function(self) return self.ClassName end

Code works, just maybe, a bit weird?

local Object = { ClassName = 'Object' }
Object.__tostring = function(self)
  return self.ClassName
end

Looks a lot better!

For any case where StyLua makes unwanted changes, you can revert and add an ignore (look here).
