How to ensure consistent coding style for CMakeLists.txt and FindXXX.cmake

问题

There are clang-format etc to ensure a consistent coding style for .cpp and .h files among different developers.

But how can I ensure consistent coding style in CMake for CMakeLists.txt and FindXXX.cmake written from different developers?

The main rules I want to enforce is consistent indention/space, upper/lower case consistency, 80 character per line constraint

Turning my comments into an answer

I don't know of a way to enforce CMakeLists.txt or other CMake script file's coding style in CMake itself. But there are editor extensions and format checkers available you can use:

• Some of the very basic things I ensure with .editorconfig

  • You can configure: indent_style, indent_size, tab_width, end_of_line, charset, trim_trailing_whitespace and insert_final_newline
  • And there are EditorConfig plug-ins for a lot of editors available (if not supported out-of-the-box)

• With cmake-lint you can check/filter for a few more rules

  • It has filters for e.g. convention/filename, linelength, package/consistency, readability/logic, readability/mixedcase, readability/wonkycase or syntax
• And there is Tools for upper/lower case consistency in CMake source
