This extension is designed to streamline JavaScript development for STIBO STEP systems. It provides developers with powerful snippets and code transformations to enhance productivity and maintain code quality.
Features
Dynamic Snippet Insertion: Type a number followed by binds (e.g., 3binds) to insert a customizable comment block with that number of variable slots.
Uppercase Transformation: Automatically converts variable names within Binds comment blocks to uppercase when the document is saved.
Multiple .showAlert() Detection: Warns you if there are multiple .showAlert() calls in your code when saving a document, helping to prevent potential issues from duplicate alerts.
Diagnostic Collection: Maintains a diagnostic collection for .showAlert() calls, providing visual feedback within the editor.
Snippets
The extension includes the following snippets for rapid development:
binds: Inserts a comment block for variable bindings. Type 1binds, 2binds, etc., to generate a block with the corresponding number of variable slots.
showAlert: Inserts a template for the .showAlert() method call.
executeInContext: Inserts a scaffold for executing code within a specific context.
info: Inserts a template for the log.info() method call.
Requirements
