I have this VSCode JavaScript snippet which is used to create an arrow function.
{
"test1": {
"scope": "javascript",
"prefix": [
"test1"
],
"body": [
"(${10:}) => ${20:{}${40:}${30:\\}}"
],
"description": "test1"
}
}
As you can see, I created separate tab stops for both the open curly brace and the close curly brace. This is because when there is only a single statement in the body of the arrow function, I don't want the curly braces and I have a chance to delete them. The problem is that, I have to delete them by pressing the delete key twice, since they are in different tab stop. See below image.
Is there a way to change the snippet so that when the tab stop is on ${20:{}
, after I press the delete key once, the matching close curly brace ${30:\}}
will also get deleted?
This works
"test1": {
"scope": "javascript",
"prefix": [
"test1"
],
"body": [
//"(${10:}) => ${20:{}$40${30:\\}}"
"(${1:}) => ${2:{$3\\}}"
],
"description": "test1"
},
Now the third tabstop $3 is inside the $2 placeholder. If you want the {}
just tab to the next tabstop $3. If you don't want the ${}
just delete them and tab to the last tabstop. Then as always you will have to tab to accept what you wrote in the last tabstop.
