💡 How to enable variables support
The following Visual Studio Code settings are available for the Colorize extension.
These can be set in user preferences (cmd+,)
or workspace settings (.vscode/settings.json)
.
Configure a list of languages that should be colorized. You can learn about languages at https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/overview.
For example, if you want to colorize colors in javascript
files, you just need to include it:
"colorize.languages": [
"javascript",
// ...
]
By default colorize read and parse all files, in your workspace, that are targeted by the settings colorize.languages, colorize.include, and colorize.exlude to extract extract all variables. Thanks to this behavior all variables will have colored background even if you never open the file containing the declaration. ⚠️ This setting can slown down vscode at opening
Configure glob patterns for including files and folders. By default Colorize is enable for files matching one the languages defined in the colorize.languages
config, with this config you can enable colorize for other files or folders. Read more about glob patterns here.
Configure glob patterns for excluding files and folders. Colorize will not colorized colors in these files and folders and it'll also not search for variables inside. Read more about glob patterns here.
By default, decorations for the current line are hidden. Set this setting to false
if you want to deactivate this behavior.
This options allow you to enable/disable colorization for a type of colors.
Available colors are :
HEXA
: for hexadecimal colors: #RGB
, #RGBA
, #RRGGBB
, #RRGGBBAA
, 0xRGB
, 0xRGBA

: for HSL colors: hsl(h,s,l)
or hsla(h,s,l,a)

...For example, if you want to only colorize hexa colors (#fff, #ffffff, 0xFFF
) in your files you can update the option like this :
"colorize.colorized_colors": [
"HEXA"
]
This options allow you to enable/disable colorization for a type of variables.
For example if you use less in your project you setup the option like this
"colorize.colorized_variables": [
"LESS"
]
This way all @variables will be colorized
