Rustfmt is designed to be very configurable. You can create a TOML file called rustfmt.toml or .rustfmt.toml, place it in the project or any other parent directory and it will apply the options in that file. If none of these directories contain such a file, both your home directory and a directory called rustfmt in your global config directory (e.g. .config/rustfmt/) are checked as well.
A possible content of rustfmt.toml or .rustfmt.toml might look like this:
indent_style = "Block" reorder_imports = false
Each configuration option is either stable or unstable. Stable options can always be used, while unstable options are only available on a nightly toolchain and must be opted into. To enable unstable options, set unstable_features = true in rustfmt.toml or pass --unstable-features to rustfmt.
Below you find a detailed visual guide on all the supported configuration options of rustfmt:
array_widthMaximum width of an array literal before falling back to vertical formatting.
60max_widthBy default this option is set as a percentage of max_width provided by use_small_heuristics, but a value set directly for array_width will take precedence.
See also max_width and use_small_heuristics
attr_fn_like_widthMaximum width of the args of a function-like attributes before falling back to vertical formatting.
70max_widthBy default this option is set as a percentage of max_width provided by use_small_heuristics, but a value set directly for attr_fn_like_width will take precedence.
See also max_width and use_small_heuristics
binop_separatorWhere to put a binary operator when a binary expression goes multiline.
"Front""Front", "Back""Front" (default):fn main() { let or = foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo || barbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbar; let sum = 123456789012345678901234567890 + 123456789012345678901234567890 + 123456789012345678901234567890; let range = aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ..bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb; }

blank_lines_lower_boundMinimum number of blank lines which must be put between items. If two items have fewer blank lines between them, additional blank lines are inserted.
0Original Code (rustfmt will not change it with the default value of 0):
#![rustfmt::skip] fn foo() { println!("a"); } fn bar() { println!("b"); println!("c"); }
1fn foo() { println!("a"); } fn bar() { println!("b"); println!("c"); }
blank_lines_upper_boundMaximum number of blank lines which can be put between items. If more than this number of consecutive empty lines are found, they are trimmed down to match this integer.
1Original Code:
#![rustfmt::skip] fn foo() { println!("a"); } fn bar() { println!("b"); println!("c"); }
1 (default):fn foo() { println!("a"); } fn bar() { println!("b"); println!("c"); }
2:fn foo() { println!("a"); } fn bar() { println!("b"); println!("c"); }
See also: blank_lines_lower_bound
brace_styleBrace style for items

"PreferSameLine":struct Lorem { ipsum: bool, } struct Dolor<T> where T: Eq, { sit: T, }
chain_widthMaximum width of a chain to fit on one line.
60max_widthBy default this option is set as a percentage of max_width provided by use_small_heuristics, but a value set directly for chain_width will take precedence.
See also max_width and use_small_heuristics
colorWhether to use colored output or not.
"Auto"combine_control_exprCombine control expressions with function calls.
truetrue, falsetrue (default):fn example() { // If foo!(if x { foo(); } else { bar(); }); // IfLet foo!(if let Some(..) = x { foo(); } else { bar(); }); // While foo!(while x { foo(); bar(); }); // WhileLet foo!(while let Some(..) = x { foo(); bar(); }); // ForLoop foo!(for x in y { foo(); bar(); }); // Loop foo!(loop { foo(); bar(); }); }

comment_widthMaximum length of comments. No effect unless wrap_comments = true.
80Note: A value of 0 results in wrap_comments being applied regardless of a line's width.
80 (default; comments shorter than comment_width):// Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
60 (comments longer than comment_width):// Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, // consectetur adipiscing elit.
See also wrap_comments.
condense_wildcard_suffixesReplace strings of _ wildcards by a single .. in tuple patterns

"ClosingNextLine":fn main() { if lorem { println!("ipsum!"); } else { println!("dolor!"); } }
disable_all_formattingDon't reformat anything.
Note that this option may be soft-deprecated in the future once the ignore option is stabilized. Nightly toolchain users are encouraged to use ignore instead when possible.
falsetrue, falseeditionSpecifies which edition is used by the parser.
"2015""2015", "2018", "2021", "2024"Rustfmt is able to pick up the edition used by reading the Cargo.toml file if executed through the Cargo's formatting tool cargo fmt. Otherwise, the edition needs to be specified in your config file:
edition = "2018"
empty_item_single_linePut empty-body functions and impls on a single line
truetrue, falsetrue (default):fn lorem() {} impl Lorem {}
false:fn lorem() { } impl Lorem { }
See also brace_style, control_brace_style.
enum_discrim_align_thresholdThe maximum length of enum variant having discriminant, that gets vertically aligned with others. Variants without discriminants would be ignored for the purpose of alignment.
Note that this is not how much whitespace is inserted, but instead the longest variant name that doesn't get ignored when aligning.
0 (default):enum Foo { A = 0, Bb = 1, RandomLongVariantGoesHere = 10, Ccc = 71, } enum Bar { VeryLongVariantNameHereA = 0, VeryLongVariantNameHereBb = 1, VeryLongVariantNameHereCcc = 2, }

error_on_line_overflowError if Rustfmt is unable to get all lines within max_width, except for comments and string literals. If this happens, then it is a bug in Rustfmt. You might be able to work around the bug by refactoring your code to avoid long/complex expressions, usually by extracting a local variable or using a shorter name.
falsetrue, falseSee also max_width.
error_on_unformattedError if unable to get comments or string literals within max_width, or they are left with trailing whitespaces.
falsetrue, falsefn_args_layoutThis option is deprecated and has been renamed to fn_params_layout to better communicate that it affects the layout of parameters in function signatures.

false:extern { pub static lorem: c_int; }
force_multiline_blocksForce multiline closure and match arm bodies to be wrapped in a block
falsefalse, truefalse (default):fn main() { result.and_then(|maybe_value| match maybe_value { None => foo(), Some(value) => bar(), }); match lorem { None => |ipsum| { println!("Hello World"); }, Some(dolor) => foo(), } }
true:fn main() { result.and_then(|maybe_value| { match maybe_value { None => foo(), Some(value) => bar(), } }); match lorem { None => { |ipsum| { println!("Hello World"); } } Some(dolor) => foo(), } }
format_code_in_doc_commentsFormat code snippet included in doc comments.

doc_comment_code_block_widthMax width for code snippets included in doc comments. Only used if format_code_in_doc_comments is true.
100max_widthformat_generated_filesFormat generated files. A file is considered generated if any of the first several lines contain a @generated comment marker. The number of lines to check is configured by generated_marker_line_search_limit.
By default, generated files are reformatted, i. e. @generated marker is ignored. This option is currently ignored for stdin (@generated in stdin is ignored.)
truetrue, falsegenerated_marker_line_search_limitNumber of lines to check for a @generated pragma header, starting from the top of the file. Setting this value to 0 will treat all files as non-generated. Whenformat_generated_files is true, this option has no effect.
5See also format_generated_files link here.
format_macro_matchersFormat the metavariable matching patterns in macros.
falsetrue, falsefalse (default):macro_rules! foo { ($a: ident : $b: ty) => { $a(42): $b; }; ($a: ident $b: ident $c: ident) => { $a = $b + $c; }; }
true:macro_rules! foo { ($a:ident : $b:ty) => { $a(42): $b; }; ($a:ident $b:ident $c:ident) => { $a = $b + $c; }; }
See also format_macro_bodies.
format_macro_bodiesFormat the bodies of declarative macro definitions.
truetrue, falsetrue (default):macro_rules! foo { ($a: ident : $b: ty) => { $a(42): $b; }; ($a: ident $b: ident $c: ident) => { $a = $b + $c; }; }
false:macro_rules! foo { ($a: ident : $b: ty) => { $a(42): $b; }; ($a: ident $b: ident $c: ident) => { $a=$b+$c; }; }
See also format_macro_matchers.
skip_macro_invocationsSkip formatting the bodies of macro invocations with the following names.
rustfmt will not format any macro invocation for macros with names set in this list. Including the special value “*” will prevent any macro invocations from being formatted.
Note: This option does not have any impact on how rustfmt formats macro definitions.
[]["name_0", "name_1", ..., "*"][] (default):rustfmt will follow its standard approach to formatting macro invocations.
No macro invocations will be skipped based on their name. More information about rustfmt's standard macro invocation formatting behavior can be found in #5437.
lorem!( const _: u8 = 0; ); ipsum!( const _: u8 = 0; );
["lorem"]:The named macro invocations will be skipped.
lorem!( const _: u8 = 0; ); ipsum!( const _: u8 = 0; );
["*"]:The special selector * will skip all macro invocations.
lorem!( const _: u8 = 0; ); ipsum!( const _: u8 = 0; );

See also max_width.
hard_tabsUse tab characters for indentation, spaces for alignment
falsetrue, falsefalse (default):fn lorem() -> usize { 42 // spaces before 42 }
true:fn lorem() -> usize { 42 // tabs before 42 }
See also: tab_spaces.
hex_literal_caseControl the case of the letters in hexadecimal literal values
PreservePreserve, Upper, Lowerhide_parse_errorsThis option is deprecated and has been renamed to show_parse_errors to avoid confusion around the double negative default of hide_parse_errors=false.
falsetrue, falseshow_parse_errorsShow parse errors if the parser failed to parse files.
truetrue, falseignoreSkip formatting files and directories that match the specified pattern. The pattern format is the same as .gitignore. Be sure to use Unix/forwardslash / style paths. This path style will work on all platforms. Windows style paths with backslashes \ are not supported.
If you want to ignore specific files, put the following to your config file:
ignore = [ "src/types.rs", "src/foo/bar.rs", ]
If you want to ignore every file under examples/, put the following to your config file:
ignore = [ "examples", ]
If you want to ignore every file under the directory where you put your rustfmt.toml:
ignore = ["/"]
If you want to allow specific paths that would otherwise be ignored, prefix those paths with a !:
ignore = ["bar_dir/*", "!bar_dir/*/what.rs"]
In this case, all files under bar_dir will be ignored, except files like bar_dir/sub/what.rs or bar_dir/another/what.rs.
imports_indentIndent style of imports

inline_attribute_widthWrite an item and its attribute on the same line if their combined width is below a threshold
0 (default):#[cfg(feature = "alloc")] use core::slice;
50:#[cfg(feature = "alloc")] use core::slice;
match_arm_blocksControls whether arm bodies are wrapped in cases where the first line of the body cannot fit on the same line as the => operator.
The Style Guide requires that bodies are block wrapped by default if a line break is required after the =>, but this option can be used to disable that behavior to prevent wrapping arm bodies in that event, so long as the body contains neither multiple statements nor line comments.
truetrue, falsetrue (default):fn main() { match lorem { ipsum => { foooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(x) } dolor => println!("{}", sit), sit => foo( "foooooooooooooooooooooooo", "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarr", "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzzzzzz", "qqqqqqqqquuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuxxx", ), } }

false:#[derive(Eq, PartialEq, Debug, Copy, Clone)] pub enum Bar {} #[derive(Eq, PartialEq)] #[derive(Debug)] #[derive(Copy, Clone)] pub enum Foo {}
imports_granularityControls how imports are structured in use statements. Imports will be merged or split to the configured level of granularity.
Similar to other import related configuration options, this option operates within the bounds of user-defined groups of imports. See group_imports for more information on import groups.
Note that rustfmt will not modify the granularity of imports containing comments if doing so could potentially lose or misplace said comments.
PreservePreserve, Crate, Module, Item, OnePreserve (default):Do not change the granularity of any imports and preserve the original structure written by the developer.
use foo::b; use foo::b::{f, g}; use foo::{a, c, d::e}; use qux::{h, i};
Crate:Merge imports from the same crate into a single use statement. Conversely, imports from different crates are split into separate statements.
use foo::{ a, b, b::{f, g}, c, d::e, }; use qux::{h, i};
Module:Merge imports from the same module into a single use statement. Conversely, imports from different modules are split into separate statements.
use foo::b::{f, g}; use foo::d::e; use foo::{a, b, c}; use qux::{h, i};
Item:Flatten imports so that each has its own use statement.
use foo::a; use foo::b; use foo::b::f; use foo::b::g; use foo::c; use foo::d::e; use qux::h; use qux::i;
One:Merge all imports into a single use statement as long as they have the same visibility.
pub use foo::{x, y}; use { bar::{ a, b::{self, f, g}, c, d::e, }, qux::{h, i}, };
merge_importsThis option is deprecated. Use imports_granularity = "Crate" instead.
falsetrue, falsefalse (default):use foo::{a, c, d}; use foo::{b, g}; use foo::{e, f};
true:use foo::{a, b, c, d, e, f, g};
newline_styleUnix or Windows line endings
"Auto""Auto", "Native", "Unix", "Windows"Auto (default):The newline style is detected automatically on a per-file basis. Files with mixed line endings will be converted to the first detected line ending style.
NativeLine endings will be converted to \r\n on Windows and \n on all other platforms.
UnixLine endings will be converted to \n.
WindowsLine endings will be converted to \r\n.
normalize_commentsConvert /* */ comments to // comments where possible
falsetrue, falsefalse (default):// Lorem ipsum: fn dolor() -> usize {} /* sit amet: */ fn adipiscing() -> usize {}
true:// Lorem ipsum: fn dolor() -> usize {} // sit amet: fn adipiscing() -> usize {}
normalize_doc_attributesConvert #![doc] and #[doc] attributes to //! and /// doc comments.
falsetrue, falsefalse (default):#![doc = "Example documentation"] #[doc = "Example item documentation"] pub enum Bar {} /// Example item documentation pub enum Foo {}

reorder_importsReorder import and extern crate statements alphabetically in groups (a group is separated by a newline).
truetrue, falsetrue (default):use dolor; use ipsum; use lorem; use sit;
false:use lorem; use ipsum; use dolor; use sit;
group_importsControls the strategy for how consecutive imports are grouped together.
Controls the strategy for grouping sets of consecutive imports. Imports may contain newlines between imports and still be grouped together as a single set, but other statements between imports will result in different grouping sets.
PreservePreserve, StdExternalCrate, OneEach set of imports (one or more use statements, optionally separated by newlines) will be formatted independently. Other statements such as mod ... or extern crate ... will cause imports to not be grouped together.
Preserve (default):Preserve the source file's import groups.

CARGO_PKG_VERSION"0.3.8")short_array_element_width_thresholdThe width threshold for an array element to be considered “short”.
The layout of an array is dependent on the length of each of its elements. If the length of every element in an array is below this threshold (all elements are “short”) then the array can be formatted in the mixed/compressed style, but if any one element has a length that exceeds this threshold then the array elements will have to be formatted vertically.

single_line_let_else_max_widthMaximum line length for single line let-else statements. See the let-else statement section of the Rust Style Guide for more details on when a let-else statement may be written on a single line. A value of 0 (zero) means the divergent else block will always be formatted over multiple lines. Note this occurs when use_small_heuristics is set to Off.

use_small_heuristicsThis option can be used to simplify the management and bulk updates of the granular width configuration settings (fn_call_width, attr_fn_like_width, struct_lit_width, struct_variant_width, array_width, chain_width, single_line_if_else_max_width), that respectively control when formatted constructs are multi-lined/vertical based on width.
Note that explicitly provided values for the width configuration settings take precedence and override the calculated values determined by use_small_heuristics.
"Default""Default", "Off", "Max"Default (default):When use_small_heuristics is set to Default, the values for the granular width settings are calculated as a ratio of the value for max_width.
The ratios are:
fn_call_width - 60%attr_fn_like_width - 70%struct_lit_width - 18%struct_variant_width - 35%array_width - 60%chain_width - 60%single_line_if_else_max_width - 50%single_line_let_else_max_width - 50%For example when max_width is set to 100, the width settings are:
fn_call_width=60attr_fn_like_width=70struct_lit_width=18struct_variant_width=35array_width=60chain_width=60single_line_if_else_max_width=50single_line_let_else_max_width=50and when max_width is set to 200:
fn_call_width=120attr_fn_like_width=140struct_lit_width=36struct_variant_width=70array_width=120chain_width=120single_line_if_else_max_width=100single_line_let_else_max_width=100enum Lorem { Ipsum, Dolor(bool), Sit { amet: Consectetur, adipiscing: Elit }, } fn main() { lorem( "lorem", "ipsum", "dolor", "sit", "amet", "consectetur", "adipiscing", ); let lorem = Lorem { ipsum: dolor, sit: amet, }; let lorem = Lorem { ipsum: dolor }; let lorem = if ipsum { dolor } else { sit }; }
Off:When use_small_heuristics is set to Off, the granular width settings are functionally disabled and ignored. See the documentation for the respective width config options for specifics.
enum Lorem { Ipsum, Dolor(bool), Sit { amet: Consectetur, adipiscing: Elit, }, } fn main() { lorem("lorem", "ipsum", "dolor", "sit", "amet", "consectetur", "adipiscing"); let lorem = Lorem { ipsum: dolor, sit: amet, }; let lorem = if ipsum { dolor } else { sit }; }
Max:When use_small_heuristics is set to Max, then each granular width setting is set to the same value as max_width.
So if max_width is set to 200, then all the width settings are also set to 200.
