This step has two modes: * Modify mode: directly modify source files, formatting them in place. * Check mode: fail the step if a non-conforming file is found.

 
const std = @import("std");
const Step = std.Build.Step;
const Fmt = @This();

step: Step,
paths: []const []const u8,

base_id

Options

create()

If true, fails the build step when any non-conforming files are encountered.
