Hopper Extension for Visual Studio Code

Feature Overview

Hopper provides fast cursor movement using only your keyboard! It's like Vim's easymotion, or NeoVim's Leap - but for VSCode.

This extension is a fork of Jumpy

Commands

When Hopper is activated, decorations (two-letter codes) are created in active editor. Type in a two letter code to jump to that position.

Where the decorations are created is dependent on the command you use:

extension.hopper-word (Hopper Word Mode): creates decorations for words in the area around your cursor
extension.hopper-line (Hopper Line Mode): creates decorations for non-empty lines in the area around your cursor

No default keybindings have been provided with this extension to avoid conflicts. Instructions for setting up your own keybindings are here

To exit Hopper mode, press a non-a-z key such as space or enter.

To set up the keybindings like Atom (Shift+Enter), add the following to your keybindings.json (File/Code -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts):

    {
        "key": "shift+enter",
        "command": "extension.hopper-word",
        "when": "editorTextFocus"
    }

You can also set up a special keybinding to exit Hopper mode, for example ESC:

    {
        "key": "Escape",
        "command": "extension.hopper-exit",
        "when": "editorTextFocus && hopper.isHopperMode"
    }

Settings

Hopper settings can be configured by adding entries into your settings.json (File -> Preferences -> User Settings). The following settings are available:

"hopper.selectWord": Select the jumped to word

"hopper.fontFamily": Font used in Hopper decorations, defaults to font from settings

"hopper.fontSize": Font size used in Hopper decorations, defaults to font size from settings - 1

"hopper.background": Background of Hopper decoration

"hopper.foreground": Text color of Hopper decoration

"hopper.wordRegexp": The Regexp to use to match words in Hopper Word Mode. The default is "\\w{2,}" which matches a string of characters [A-Za-z0-9_], length two or more. To match individual words inside camel case, for example, override with "([A-Z]+([0-9a-z])*)|[a-z0-9]{2,}".

"hopper.lineRegexp": The Regexp to use to match empty lines (Hopper won't create decorations for empty lines). The default is "^\\s*$"
