Expected Behavior

Spec files should not have tabs (json files specifically tested). Using ‘npx @stoplight/spectral lint --verbose ./src/swagger/openapi.json’ should NOT return ‘warning parser Using tabs can lead to unpredictable results’

Current Behavior

Using ‘npx @stoplight/spectral lint --verbose ./src/swagger/openapi.json’ returns ‘warning parser Using tabs can lead to unpredictable results’

Possible Solution

on line 42 of the following snippet

let data = JSON.stringify(spec, null, '\t');

https://github.com/lukeautry/tsoa/blob/fd1915f9506e9cff8368a2c2cc404bc8336e668c/packages/cli/src/module/generate-spec.ts#L42-L45

replace the ‘/t’ with 2 or 4

Steps to Reproduce

Generate a spec with version 3.5.2 Using npx @stoplight/spectral lint --verbose ./src/swagger/openapi.json

I am not sure about the JSON spec. But how I discovered this “problem” is following the TSOA docs. In them it mentions using stoplight/spectrum to validate the Open Api file. In doing so it outputs thousands of lines of warnings regarding the tabs. The “rule” cannot be turned off as it considers it a parsing error. Effectively hiding all other warnings.
