I wrote a simple formatter for outputting json values. It respects maximum line length. https://gist.github.com/nojvek/875d8cad1005da0b95da2840bbc894e6 https://gist.github.com/nojvek/875d8cad1005da0b95da2840bbc89... It implements some of the ideas from https://blog.vjeux.com/2017/javascript/anatomy-of-a-javascript-pretty-printer.html https://blog.vjeux.com/2017/javascript/anatomy-of-a-javascri... Could be re-used for other languages very easily. The core is you have nested group chunks with (indent breakpoint, dedent breakpoint, separator breakpoint, more text chunks and child group chunks). when formatting a single line, indent and dedunt breakpoints do nothing, but in multi line format, they specify how text will be laid out. The algorithm is simple, try to format in single line if it fits within maxLineLength, if not break into multiple lines, and do that recursively.
