LanguageConfiguration interface
The language configuration interface defines the contract between extensions and various editor features, like automatic bracket insertion, automatic indentation etc.
Properties
| auto |
The language's auto closing pairs. The 'close' character is automatically inserted with the 'open' character is typed. If not set, the configured brackets will be used. |
| brackets | The language's brackets. This configuration implicitly affects pressing Enter around these brackets. |
| comments | The language's comment settings. |
| folding | The language's folding rules. |
| indentation |
The language's indentation settings. |
| on |
The language's rules to be evaluated when pressing Enter. |
| surrounding |
The language's surrounding pairs. When the 'open' character is typed on a selection, the selected string is surrounded by the open and close characters. If not set, the autoclosing pairs settings will be used. |
| word |
The language's word definition. If the language supports Unicode identifiers (e.g. JavaScript), it is preferable to provide a word definition that uses exclusion of known separators. e.g.: A regex that matches anything except known separators (and dot is allowed to occur in a floating point number): /(-?\d*.\d\w*)|([^`~!@#%^&*()-=+[{]}\|;:'",.<>/?\s]+)/g |
