NormalizeTags

Normalize tag names by normalizing case and removing duplicates.

Disabling the formatter

NormalizeTags is included in the default formatters, but it can be also run separately with:

robocop format --select NormalizeTags

You can also disable it:

robocop format --configure NormalizeTags.enabled=False

Supported cases:

• lowercase (default),
• uppercase
• titlecase

You can configure a case using case parameter:

cli toml

robocop format --select NormalizeTags --configure NormalizeTags.case=uppercase

[tool.robocop.format]
select = [
    "NormalizeTags"
]
configure = [
    "NormalizeTags.case=uppercase"
]

You can remove duplicates without normalizing a case by setting normalize_case parameter to False:

cli toml

robocop format --select NormalizeTags --configure NormalizeTags.normalize_case=False

[tool.robocop.format]
select = [
    "NormalizeTags"
]
configure = [
    "NormalizeTags.normalize_case=False"
]

Preserve formatting

Tags formatting like new lines, separators or comments position will be lost when using NormalizeTags formatter. You can preserve formatting by using preserve_format flag:

cli toml

robocop format --select NormalizeTags --configure NormalizeTags.preserve_format=True

[tool.robocop.format]
select = [
    "NormalizeTags"
]
configure = [
    "NormalizeTags.preserve_format=True"
]

The downside is that the duplications will not be removed when preserve_format is enabled.
