Hi SSMSBOOST- Team
The new formatter is a VERY GREAT approach, I'm getting a real fan!
A couple of things I found, using SSMSBOOST 3.1.6458.15317 (absolutely incomplete list, more to come):
- The issue with the Tab using to do the indentation mentioned by Dani S. is still there.
- "Case" formatting lacks:
- SpaceBeforeWhen
- SpaceBeforeElse
I want to reach for bistable when/then/else statements:
Code:
,CASE WHEN (ISNUMERIC(a.Number) = 0 AND a.[Group]='XYZ')
THEN CONCAT(xyz_a.[Type], ' ' , bra_a.[Name])
ELSE CONCAT(a.[Type], ' ' , a.[Name])
END AS 'columnAliasX'
,CASE WHEN (ISNUMERIC(a.Number) = 0 AND a.[Group]='XY')
THEN xyz_a.[Group]
ELSE a.[Group]
END AS 'columnAliasY'
or this look for multiple when/then
Code:
,CASE
WHEN expression=result
THEN output
WHEN expression=otherresult
THEN otherOutput
ELSE elseOutput
END AS 'columnAliasY'
- "Insert" - "Values" lacks of "SpaceBeforeOpeningBrace" to reach
Code:
INSERT INTO tablename
(column1, column2, column3)
VALUES
('value1','value2','value3')
- Option to keep a marked section untouched (for example a variable declaration section which fills a table variable with data.
Example:
Code:
DECLARE @test TABLE (id int identity(1,1), keyCol varchar(50), valCol varchar(256))
INSERT @test (keyCol, valCol)
SELECT 'param1','Value1' UNION
SELECT 'param2','Value2' UNION
SELECT 'param3','Value3'
gets this way, after formatting, which makes no sense (IMHO) and needs unnecessary many lines
Code:DECLARE @test TABLE ( id int IDENTITY(1,1)
, keyCol varchar(50)
, valCol varchar(256)
)
INSERT @test
(keyCol, valCol)
SELECT'param1'
,'Value1'
UNION
SELECT'param2'
,'Value2'
UNION
SELECT'param3'
,'Value3'
Maybe somethin like
Code:
--#beginNoAutoFormat
DECLARE @test TABLE (id int identity(1,1), keyCol varchar(50), valCol varchar(256))
INSERT @test (keyCol, valCol)
SELECT 'param1','Value1' UNION
SELECT 'param2','Value2' UNION
SELECT 'param3','Value3'
--#endNoAutoFormat
As mentioned above: more ideas to come, if desired.
