PyCharm custom syntax highlight for XML files

I have many XML files which include parameters with the following syntax:

<CustomElement url="http://www.#[domain]/#[sub]" />

#[whatever] is replaced by a value before runtime but scanning through a lot of elements make it hard to recognize that an element needs a value.

Is it possible to configure PyCharm to highlights only #[] parts so it's easier to find the params?

Solution

  • No, it's not possible to configure this via the UI. You can write a plugin that will highlight those sequences.
