Extension details

This extension is based off Better Jinja by Samuel Colvin. It takes the Jinja Markdown feature and adds snippets specific to Report Ranger. By default, it only runs on files with the extension .md.rr, however you can add additional file associations (for instance just regular .md) by adding the following to your workspace:

"files.associations": {
  "*.md": "rr-md"
},

Known bugs

Syntax highlighting will only work if the line begins with a Jinja tag. This is due to a battle between Jinja and Markdown syntax highlighting, with Markdown automatically syntax highlighting the entire paragraph if it thinks it contains markdown. Given the choice between highlighting Jinja2 tags in the middle of text and syntax highlighting for markdown we chose the syntax highlighting for markdown.
