I m using tidy together with custom build system to prettify HTML   I have HTMLTidy sublime-build in my Packages User  directory        cmd     tidy    -config     packages User tidy config cfg     file       and tidy config cfg file in the same directory   indent  auto tab-size  4 show-warnings  no write-back  yes quiet  yes indent-cdata  yes tidy-mark  no wrap  0   And just select build system and press ctrl b or cmd b to reformat file content  One minor issue with that is that ST2 does not automatically reload the file so to see the results you have to switch to some other file and back  or to other application and back    On Mac I ve used macports to install tidy  on Windows you d have to download it yourself and specify working directory in the build system  where tidy is located    working dir    c   HTMLTidy      or add it to the PATH

For me  the HTML Prettify solution was extremely simple  I went to the HTML Prettify page     Needed the Sublime Package Manager Followed the Instructions for installing the package manager here typed cmd   shift   p to bring up the menu Typed prettify Chose the HTML prettify selection in the menu   Boom  Done  Looks great

Just a general tip  What I did to auto-tidy up my HTML  was install the package HTML Tidy  and then add the following keybinding to the default settings  which I use       keys     enter     command    html tidy       this runs HTML Tidy with every enter  There may be drawbacks to this  I m quite new to Sublime myself  but it seems to do what I want

There are half a dozen or so ways to format HTML in Sublime  I ve tested each of the most popular plugins  see the writeup I did on my blog for full details   but here s a quick overview of some of the most popular options   Reindent command  Pros    Ships with Sublime  so no plugin install needed   Cons    Doesn t delete extra blank lines Can t handle minified HTML  lines with multiple open tags Doesn t properly format  lt script gt  blocks   Tag  Pros    Supports ST2 ST3 Removes extra blank lines No binary dependencies   Cons    Chokes on PHP tags Doesn t handle  lt script gt  blocks correctly   HTMLTidy  Pros    Handles PHP tags Some settings to tweak formatting   Cons    Requires PHP  falls back to web service  ST2 only Abandoned    HTMLBeautify  Pros    Supports ST2 ST3 Simple and no binaray dependencies Support for OS X  Win and Linux   Cons    Chokes a bit with inline comments Does expand minimized compressed code    HTML-CSS-JS Prettify  Pros    Supports ST2 ST3 Handles HTML  CSS  JS Great integration with Sublime s menus Highly customizable Per-project settings Format on save option   Cons    Requires Node js Not great for embedded PHP    Which is best   HTML-CSS-JS Prettify is the winner in my book  Lots of great features  not much to complain about

You don t need any plugins to do this  Just select all lines  Ctrl A  and then from the menu select Edit  rarr  Line  rarr  Reindent  This will work if your file is saved with an extension that contains HTML like  html or  php   If you do this often  you may find this key mapping useful      keys     ctrl shift r     command    reindent     args      single line   false       If your file is not saved  e g  you just pasted in a snippet to a new window   you can manually set the language for indentation by selecting the menu View  rarr  Syntax  rarr  language of choice before selecting the reindent option
