Pug / jade engine template: html beautifier?

Question

I am using jade / pug template engine with ExpressJS on Node.js. It outputs html with one line. No indentation at all. I could not find any options for decoration.

Answer 1

There used to be a {pretty: true} parameter, but it was removed because it messed up with spaces.

works:

Answer 2

In app.js, pass the pretty parameter to the Jade compiler.

 app.set('view options', { pretty: true }); 

Answer 3

If you are compiling from the console, you can use this:

 jade views/ --out html --pretty layout.jade 

it will generate beutfied code in the html folder.
