🔁 TangoMan vscode-command-cycle

The TangoMan vscode-command-cycle extension for Visual Studio Code enables the repeated execution of a user-defined sequence of commands. These command sequences are configured within the keybindings.json file, providing a customizable workflow.

🚀 Installation

Step 1: Install the Extension

Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press Enter.

ext install TangoMan75.command-cycle

Or install the extension via the command line:

code --install-extension TangoMan75.command-cycle

Or install the .vsix package manually:

Download the source code.
Open the Extensions View in VS Code.
Click on the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar.
Click on the three-dot icon (...) in the top-right corner.
From the dropdown menu that appears, select "Install from VSIX...".

Step 2: Configure Keybindings

Edit your VS Code keybindings configuration in the keybindings.json file to define the commands to cycle through.

For example, while using the wmaurer.change-case extension, you can cycle through various text case transformations (e.g., sentence case, title case, camelCase, etc.) by pressing Ctrl+K Ctrl+T repeatedly.

{
    "key": "ctrl+k ctrl+t",
    "command": "command-cycle.loop",
    "args": {
        "commands": [
            "extension.changeCase.sentence",
            "extension.changeCase.title",
            "extension.changeCase.camel",
            "extension.changeCase.pascal"
        ]
    },
    "when": "editorTextFocus && !editorReadonly"
},

Loop through case example

Replace the commands in the commands array with the ones you want to cycle through.

🔥 Usage

Press the keybinding you configured (e.g., Ctrl+K Ctrl+T).
The extension will execute the commands in the order specified in the commands array.
Each subsequent key press will execute the next command in the cycle.

📝 Notes

Ensure that the commands you specify in the commands array are valid Visual Studio Code commands.
You can find available commands by opening the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) and typing >.
