Complete Statement with semicolon or brace in vscode.
Mimic IntelliJ's complete statement.
In other words, append ; and move to line end.
Works with languages with a C style syntax.
Key binding
This extension uses ctrl+; (cmd+; on mac)
since vscode already uses ctrl+shift+enter.
You can rebind extension.complete-statement to ctrl+shift+enter.
BTW, ctrl+; is easier to remember and type than ctrl+shift+enter.
I myself use ctrl+enter since ctrl+; is hard to type in dvorak.
Example
We use ][ to represent cursor.
][
let a_number = 2][ # deside to specify type
let a_number: number][ = 2
// press `ctrl+;` (`cmd+;` on mac)
let a_number: number = 2;][
let semicolon: string][ = "already exist";
// press `ctrl+;`, just move cursor to the end
let semicolon: string = "already exist";][
function works_too(para: number][)
// `ctrl+;`
function works_too(para: number) {][
}
// `down` arrow key
function works_too(para: number) {
][
}
// Respects `tabSize` setting. If `tabSize` unset, use 4 spaces.
function works_too(para: number) {
if (a_number == 1][)
}
// `ctrl+;`
function works_too(para: number) {
if (a_number == 1) {][
}
}
Bugs
As mentioned above, complete structure (if, for, etc) requires down arrow key.
It will not auto moves to the start of next line like IntelliJ.
Read the source code or #11841 for more information.
This extension does not understand semantics of programming languages.
So complete structure may not work as you expected.
For example, it cannot completes if with multiple line conditions.
Also it cannot complete functions in C.
The "parsing" is very naive, it does not even use regex.
The naive "parsing" is probably good at performance,
at the cost of only covering limited conditions.
Indented with tab is not supported yet. Pull request is welcome.
