rust/Configurations.md

Configuring Rustfmt

Rustfmt is designed to be very configurable. You can create a TOML file called rustfmt.toml or .rustfmt.toml, place it in the project or any other parent directory and it will apply the options in that file.

A possible content of rustfmt.toml or .rustfmt.toml might look like this:

indent_style = "Block"
reorder_imports = false

Each configuration option is either stable or unstable. Stable options can be used directly, while unstable options are opt-in. To enable unstable options, set unstable_features = true in rustfmt.toml or pass --unstable-features to rustfmt.

Configuration Options

Below you find a detailed visual guide on all the supported configuration options of rustfmt:
