CamelHumps

If you enable the setting Use "CamelHumps" words in IntelliJ, commands like ctrl+left will go to the previous hump in camel case words, rather than the start of the word. For similar functionality in VS Code, enalbe the config intellij-idea-keybindings.useCamelHumpsWords under Settings.

{
    "intellij-idea-keybindings.useCamelHumpsWords": true
}

Note: CamelHumps mode with double-click is not supported.

How to disable specific key bindings of this extension

If you want to disable a specific key binding of this extension, follow these steps:

  1. Open File > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts
  2. Search IntelliJ IDEA Keybindings or type directly like "shift shift"
  3. Right click and Remove Keybinding

IntelliJ Importer

IntelliJ Importer

Import keymaps XML

  1. Launch Code
  2. Open command pallet Ctrl-Shift-P (Windows) or Cmd-Shift-P (macOS)
  3. Choose Import IntelliJ Keybindings (XML)
  4. Copy & Paste it into keybindings.json

Installation

  1. Install Visual Studio Code 1.94.0 or higher
  2. Launch Code
  3. From the extension view Ctrl-Shift-X (Windows, Linux) or Cmd-Shift-X (macOS)
  4. Search and Choose the extension Intellij IDEA Keybindings
  5. Reload Visual Studio Code

Known Issues (IntelliJ Importer)

  • Refactoring commands are not supported
  • Sidebar controls are not supported
  • Namepad control is not supported at the same time as numbers
  • Intellij's custom keymap is not a full copy of its parent keymap. It inherits unmodified shortcuts from the parent keymap and defines only those that were changed. If you use a plugin like Emacs or Vim, only your changes will be exported in the XML
  • Warning output for keymaps that could not be imported is not yet implemented
  • Cannot load settings.zip file directly

Contributing to the Code

Clone a copy of the repo:

git clone https://github.com/kasecato/vscode-intellij-idea-keybindings.git

Building the code

First, install the package dependencies:

npm install

Now you can compile the code:

  1. Launch Code
  2. Edit src/package-with-comment.json (NOT package.json)
  3. Run npm: compile Task Ctrl-Shift-B (Windows, Linux) or Cmd-Shift-B (macOS)
  4. Run Command Markdown Generator npm run usage
  5. Paste the Command Markdown to README.md

After the initial compile, the source files will be watched and recompiled when changes are saved.
