botboiler-helpers README

A Visual Studio Code extension to provide snippets to assist when developing bots using the BotBoiler sample code. You'll need this codebase up before this extension will be of any use.

Consider using the botboiler Yeoman generator and make sure you head to the main BotBoiler for usage and samples.

Usage

From the command palette Ctrl-Shift-P (Windows, Linux) or Cmd-Shift-P (macOS) select snippts. Start typing bb and you'll see the snippets.

Once the snippet is in, press tab to navigate the editable template fields.

Shortcuts

We recommend adding a shortcut to snippets. In your keyboard bindings file add the following:

{
    "key": "ctrl-alt-k",
    "command": "editor.action.insertSnippet"
}
