YINI Syntax Highlighting

Syntax highlighting for YINI configuration files in VS Code and other editors that support TextMate grammars.

Compatibility: This extension targets the YINI Specification 1.0.0-RC.6.

Usage

  1. Install the extension and open a file ending in .yini.
  2. Confirm that the language mode in the lower-right corner says YINI.

Other TextMate-compatible editors can use syntaxes/yini.tmLanguage.json directly.

Development

Press F5 in VS Code to open an Extension Development Host. The lenient example and strict example demonstrate the same features in the same order.

Run the automated grammar, scope, fixture, and parser tests with:

npm ci
npm test

See the maintainer guide for scope inspection and packaging instructions.

Customization

  • Customizing disabled-line appearance in VS Code
