## SQL Formatting

The SDF formatter is an extremely fast SQL formatter designed as a drop-in replacement for SQLFluff. It is available natively as part of the SDF cli.

### `sdf format`

The entrypoint for the formatter is `sdf format`.

```
sdf format                     # Formats all files in the SDF Workspace
sdf format /path/to/file.sql   # Formats one specific file
sdf format /path/to/dir/*.sql  # Formats all files matching glob pattern
```

### Formatting Configuration

You may set a formatting configuration for an SDF project.

```yml workspace.sdf.yml  theme={null}
sdf-args:
   lint: >
    ...
   format: >
     -l line-length=80 
     -l indent=2 
     -l commas=leading
```
