This extension adds support for MessageFormat 2 in VS Code. MessageFormat 2 is a
Unicode standard for localizable dynamic message strings, designed to make it
simple to create natural sounding localized messages.
Features
Syntax and semantic highlighting (with bracket matching)
Diagnostics (syntax errors, early errors)
Variable completion
Variable rename
Go to definition for variables
Quick fixes for some errors
Formatting
Usage
This extension is automatically enabled on files with the .mf2 extension. To
use the extension with different file extensions, you can change the language
mode by running the > Change Language Mode command from the Command Palette
(Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+P).
In JavaScript files, template strings inside of a new Intl.MessageFormat()
expression (or new MessageFormat) will be highlighted. Template strings
prefixed with /* mf2 */ are also highlighted. Auto-completion, linked rename,
and diagnostics are not available in JavaScript files.
Examples
.input {$pronoun :string}
.input {$name :string}
.match $pronoun
he {{His name is {$name}.}}
she {{Her name is {$name}.}}
* {{Their name is {$name}.}}
