Auto comment line

Visual Studio Code does not automatically insert single-line comments by default. This extension automatically inserts a single line comment on the next line after only one line or after only two lines with a single line comment.

Usage

By default, a comment is automatically inserted after one single line comment.

But you can use the afterTwoLines: true parameter to automatically insert a comment after only two single line comments.

Default supported languages

Configuration

You can change default parameters in your settings.json.

You can change this parameter to automatically insert a comment after only two single line comments.

// When enabled, a new comment line is inserted when two previous lines also contain a comment line.
"auto-comment-line.afterTwoLines": true,

You can change the default language list for each comment style.

// List of languages where the comment character is a double slash: //
"auto-comment-line.doubleSlashLangs": ["php", "javascript"],

// List of languages where the comment character is a triple slash: ///
"auto-comment-line.tripleSlashLangs": ["csharp"],

// List of languages where the comment character is a hash: #
"auto-comment-line.hashLangs": ["bash"],

// List of languages where the comment character is a semicolon: ;
"auto-comment-line.semicolonLangs": ["clojure"],

// List of languages where the comment character is a double hyphen: --
"auto-comment-line.doubleHyphenLangs": ["sql"],
