Four spaces indent in CDSW web editor

[#1]

Hi,

in our CDSW setup the autoindent feature uses a tab with a width of 2 spaces when creating a newline in a .py Python script.

E.g. on a newline after:

for i in range(n):

  <- 2-spaces wide tab gets automatically added here

Is there a way to configure this to use 4 spaces instead of the tab?

@DianaTorres@Gopinathany help on this would again be greatly appreciated 🙂

CDSW/CML uses brackets editor. You may have a look at the brackets documentations for further customisation needs.

Thank you very much. This was of great help.

I read that one could edit the brackets.json to enable programming language-specific settings. Is something like outlined in this SO answer possible in the CDSW?

"language": {
    "html": {
        "spaceUnits": 4
    },
    "javascript": {
        "tabSize": 2
    }
}

Edit: We are currently struggling to even find the brackets.json file in our CDSW. Is such a file available in principle? Should we create it and place it in a specific directory?

Hi @Gopinath 

We are currently struggling to find the brackets.json file in our CDSW. Is such a file available in principle or would we need to create it and place it in a specific directory?
