# indentation

Specify indentation.

```css
   |@media print {
   |  a {
   | ↑  background-position: top left,
   | ↑ ↑  top right;
   | ↑}↑ ↑
   |}↑ ↑ ↑
/**  ↑ ↑ ↑
 * The indentation at these three points */
```

## Options

`int|"tab"`, where `int` is the number of spaces

### `2`

Always indent at-rules, rules, comments, declarations, inside parentheses and multi-line values by 2 spaces.

The following patterns are considered warnings:

```css
@media print {
a {
background-position: top left,
top right;
}
}
```

```css
@media print {
a {
  background-position: top left,
    top right;
  }
}
```

```css
@media print {
  a {
    background-position: top left,
    top right;
  }
}
```

```css
@media print {
  a,
    b {
    background-position: top left,
      top right;
  }
}
```

```css
a {
/* blergh */
  color: pink;
}
  /* blergh */
```

```css
@media print,
(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25),
(min-resolution: 120dpi) {}
```

```css
a {
  color: rgb(
  255,
  255,
  255
  );
  top: 0;
}
```

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
@media print {
  a {
    background-position: top left,
      top right;
  }
}
```

```css
@media print {
  a,
  b {
    background-position: top left,
      top right;
  }
}
```

```css
a {
  /* blergh */
  color: pink;
}
/* blergh */
```

```css
@media print,
  (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25),
  (min-resolution: 120dpi) {}
```

```css
a {
  color: rgb(
    255,
    255,
    255
  );
  top: 0;
}
```

## Optional secondary options

### `indentInsideParens: "twice"|"once-at-root-twice-in-block"`

By default, *one extra* indentation (of your specified type) is expected after newlines inside parentheses, and the closing parenthesis is expected to have no extra indentation.

If you would like to change the quantity of extra indentation inside parentheses, use this option.

`"twice"` means you expect two extra indentations (of your specified type) after newlines inside parentheses, and expect the closing parenthesis to have one extra indentation. For example:

```css
a {
  color: rgb(
      255,
      255,
      255
    );
  top: 0;
}
```

`"once-at-root-twice-in-block"` means two things: You want the behavior of `"once"`, as documented above, when the parenthetical expression is part of a node that is an immediate descendent of the root — i.e. not inside a block. And you want the behavior of `"twice"`, as documented above, when the parenthetical expression is part of a node that is inside a block. For example, with a SCSS map:

```scss
$foo: (
  bar: 1,
  baz: 2
);

a {
  color: rgb(
      255,
      255,
      255
    );
  top: 0;
}
```

### `indentClosingBrace: true|false`

If `true`, the closing brace of a block (rule or at-rule) will be expected at the same indentation level as the block's inner nodes.

For example, with `indentClosingBrace: true`.

The following patterns are considered warnings:

```css
a {
  color: pink;
}
```

```css
@media print {
  a {
    color: pink;
  }  
}
```

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
a {
  color: pink;
  }
```

```css
@media print {
  a {
    color: pink;
    }  
  }
```

### `except: ["block", "param", "value"]`

Do *not* indent for these things.

For example, with `2`.

The following patterns are considered warnings:

```css
@media print,
  (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25),
  (min-resolution: 120dpi) {
  a {
    background-position: top left,
      top right;
  }
}
```

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
@media print,
(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25),
(min-resolution: 120dpi) {
a {
background-position: top left,
top right;
}
}
```

### `ignore: ["inside-parens", "param", "value"]`

#### `"inside-parens"`

Ignore the indentation inside parentheses.

For example, with `2`.

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
a {
  color: rgb(
255,
  255,
    255
  );
  top: 0;
}
```

#### `"param"`

Ignore the indentation of at-rule params.

For example, with `2`.

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
@media print,
  (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25),
    (min-resolution: 120dpi) {
}
```

#### `"value"`

Ignore the indentation of values.

For example, with `2`.

The following patterns are *not* considered warnings:

```css
a {
  background-position: top left,
top right,
  bottom left,
    bottom right;
}
```
