Development

Code style

Guiguts uses perltidy for consistent styling using configuration options in .perltidyrc. You can install perltidy with cpanm --installdeps --notest --with-develop . including the dot at the end.

format_files.sh can be used to format one or more files. If used with --check it will validate that the files match the perltidy format.

This project uses Travis CI to validate formatting for each MR.
