About:
Gersemi is a CMake formatter that enforces a consistent style across your project's build scripts. It parses CMake files into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) and reconstructs the code according to configurable formatting rules. This tool helps maintain clean, readable, and standardized CMake codebases, especially in collaborative environments.
Key Features:
  • AST-based parsing for robust formatting decisions
  • Configurable formatting rules via a configuration file
  • Idempotent formatting (output is stable across runs)
  • Supports modern CMake syntax and constructs
Use Cases:
  • Enforcing a unified CMake style guide across a team
  • Automated formatting in CI/CD pipelines to prevent style drift
  • Refactoring legacy CMake files to improve readability
Alternatives:
  • cmake-format – cmake-format is a widely used alternative; Gersemi distinguishes itself with a focus on AST-based reconstruction and specific formatting philosophies.
  • gersemi – Built specifically for CMake, offering a more focused feature set than generic code formatters.
