Pug/Jade template engine: html beautifier?

Question

I'm using jade/pug template engine with ExpressJS on Node.js. It outputs a html with single line. No indentation at all. I couldn't find any beautifier option.

In app.js, pass the pretty option to the Jade compiler.

app.set('view options', { pretty: true });

There used to be a {pretty: true} option but it was removed because it messed up with whitespaces.

If you are compileing from console, then you can use this :

jade views/ --out html --pretty layout.jade
