Allow for use with arbitrary languages
Gama11 opened this issue · comments
AStyle does a passable job of formatting (simple) Haxe code, and I'd imagine that's the case for a lot of other languages that are not part of the officially supported / listed ones too. However, it seems like the extension is currently restricted to those.
It would be nice to have a simple setting for this, like:
"astyle.additional_languages": ["Haxe"]
I add support in v0.6, please take a look and see if it's works for you :)
Thanks for taking a look!
Unfortunately it doesn't work, at least not unless you open one of the file types that are activation events first. When I hacked in Haxe support for testing, I had to add the activation event here:
I guess the only way to make a setting like this work is by using onLaguage:*?
Btw, I also just noticed that the name I suggested doesn't really match existing conventions: VSCode settings themselves and those of most extensions seem to use camelCase, so it'd have to be additionalLanguages rather than additional_languages.
I see, there are a default formatter for haxe, I thought it was formatted by astyle as I wish in test. I'll reopen the issue and fix it.
About the naming style, I follow C/C++ package which is also use underline to separate words, and I have already one option with this style, it's a little hard to change it :(

Hm? Not that I know of.
OK, I was be miss leading again by myself. formatter is astyle, but it's not active by opening .hx file but a cpp file in my test environment.
I think I have to use "*" in activationEvents, which means whenever vs code starts up.
It's updated in 0.6.1 🥇
Works for me, thanks! :)
Btw, if you move the changelog from the Readme to a separate CHANGELOG.md file, it will show up in a separate "Changelog"-tab in VSCode:
An image would be nice too, but I guess AStyle doesn't have a logo?
AStyle doesn't have a official logo, bug I can find one. Thanks for your advice :)
Cool! It helps a lot to have a logo when you have a lot of extensions installed - can get difficult to tell them apart.
