How to Use This Tool

Input Your Perl

Paste your Perl code into the input area. The formatter handles minified Perl, inconsistently formatted code, or code with mixed indentation. Load sample data to see formatting in action.

Choose Formatting Style

Select your preferred indentation (2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tabs) and other Perl formatting preferences. The tool applies industry-standard Perl style guidelines but can be customized to match your project's standards.

Copy Formatted Output

Formatted Perl appears instantly in the output panel. Use the "Copy" button for clipboard, or "Download" to save as a file. The formatted Perl is fully functional with dramatically improved readability.

Best Practices & Tips

✓Format Perl before code reviews. Clean, consistently formatted code is easier to review and helps reviewers focus on logic rather than style issues.
✓Use consistent indentation across your team. Choose 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tabs for Perl and stick with it. This formatter makes it easy to enforce your team's standard.
✓Format minified Perl for debugging. When debugging production issues, format the minified code first to make it human-readable. This tool handles even heavily compressed Perl.
✓Combine with validation. Always validate Perl after formatting to ensure no errors were introduced. Use our Perl validator alongside this formatter.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Problem: Formatted output has syntax errors

Solution: The formatter preserves your original Perl content exactly - it only changes whitespace and indentation. If output has errors, the input likely had errors. Validate first, then format.

Example: If your minified Perl had missing commas, formatting will make them more visible but won't fix them.

Problem: Indentation doesn't match my preference

Solution: Check the indentation settings (2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tabs). The formatter applies your chosen style consistently throughout the Perl.

Example: If you want 4-space indentation but see 2 spaces, change the setting and re-format.
