<!-- ABOUT THE PROJECT -->

## About the Project

This Python script provides a flexible tool for converting indentation styles in text files between spaces and tabs. It supports converting leading spaces to tabs, leading tabs to spaces, and even converting from one number of spaces to another, all while respecting the files detailed in the `.gitignore`, hidden files, and binary files.

In addition to being able to run this script on its own, you can also installed it as a package via **PyPI** (more information on how to install it [here](#use-the-package-in-your-project)).

### Built With

- [pathspec](https://github.com/cpburnz/python-pathspec) for `.gitignore` style pattern matching of file paths.
- [binaryornot](https://github.com/binaryornot/binaryornot) to guess whether a file is binary or text.

<!-- GETTING STARTED -->

## Getting Started

### Script Installation

1. Download the `.zip` file from the [latest release](https://github.com/HenestrosaDev/indentation-converter/releases/latest/download/indentation-converter.zip).
2. (Optional but recommended) Create a Python virtual environment in the project root. If you're using `virtualenv`, you would run `virtualenv venv`.
3. (Optional but recommended) Activate the virtual environment:

	 ```bash
	 # on Windows
	 . venv/Scripts/activate
	 # if you get the error `FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnauthorizedAccess`, run this:
	 Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process
	 # and then . venv/Scripts/activate

	 # on macOS and Linux
	 source venv/Scripts/activate
	 ```

4. Open the command line and run `pip install -r path/to/requirements.txt` to install the required packages to run the script.

### Package Installation

Install the PyPI package by running `pip install indentation-converter`.

<!-- USAGE -->

## Usage

### Running the Program

**NOTE**: The commands in each usage example do the same thing. The only thing that changes is the value passed to the conversion mode (`-m`).

---

To convert the indentation of a file from 2 spaces to tabs:

```
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m st -s 2
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m spaces_to_tabs -s 2
```

---

To convert the indentation of a file from 4 spaces to tabs:

```
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m st
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m spaces_to_tabs 
```

The value of the `-s` flag defaults to 4, so it's not necessary to specify it in this case.

---

To convert the indentation of the files of a directory from 4 spaces to tabs:

```
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [DIRECTORY_PATH] -m st
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [DIRECTORY_PATH] -m spaces_to_tabs
```

---

To convert the indentation of a file from tabs to 2 spaces:

```
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m ts -s 2
python path/to/indentation_converter.py [FILE_PATH] -m tabs_to_spaces -s 2
```

---

#### Script Flags

| Flag                       | Description                                                                                                                                                                             |
|:---------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `-h` or `--help`           | Displays help text for the program.                                                                                                                                                     |
| `-m` or `--mode`           | Conversion mode. The possible inputs are `spaces-to-tabs`, `st`, `tabs-to-spaces`, and `ts`. `st` is the short form of `spaces_to_tabs` and `ts` is the short form of `tabs_to_spaces`. |
| `-s` or `--spaces-per-tab` | Number of spaces per tab. The default value is `4`.                                                                                                                                     |

### Using the Package in Your Project

After following the steps in the [Getting Started](#getting-started) section, import the package and the wrapper function(s) you want to use:

```python
# Using the `process_file` and `convert_leading_spaces_to_tabs` functions
import indentation_converter as ic

ic.process_file("file.txt", ic.convert_leading_spaces_to_tabs, spaces_per_tab=4)
```
