Go Toggle Case Extension

This VSCode extension helps you quickly switch between Exported and Unexported Go variable or function names by toggling their case. It's perfect for Go developers who want to easily convert between capitalized (exported) and lowercase (unexported) identifiers.

Features

• Toggle Exported/Unexported: Switch the case of a Go function or variable name from Exported (like MyFunction) to Unexported (like myFunction), or vice versa.
• Automatic Rename: The extension automatically renames the symbol throughout your document—just like using VSCode's "Rename Symbol" feature (F2).
• Effortless: No need to manually change the case—just place your cursor on the symbol and let the extension do the work!

Installation

Install from VSCode Marketplace:

• Search for Go Toggle Case in the VSCode Marketplace and click Install.

How to Use

1. Toggle Exported/Unexported:
   • Place your cursor on the Go function or variable you want to toggle.
   • Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+P), search for "Toggle Exported/Unexported", and select it. The extension will toggle the case for you.
2. Keyboard Shortcut (Optional):
   • You can set a keyboard shortcut to make it even easier to toggle the case. For example, add this to your keybindings.json:

     [
       {
         "key": "ctrl+alt+t",
         "command": "go-toggle-case.toggleExported",
         "when": "editorTextFocus"
       }
     ]
     

   • Now you can press Ctrl+Alt+T to toggle the case instantly.

How It Works

• The extension looks at the word under your cursor.
• It toggles the first letter's case: if the word is capitalized (like MyFunction), it will turn it lowercase (like myFunction), and vice versa.
• It then automatically applies the change throughout the entire document—no need for confirmation or pressing Enter!

Requirements

• VSCode 1.60+: This extension requires VSCode version 1.60 or later.
• Go Support: It works best when you have the Go extension for VSCode installed.
