Handling indent when auto-complete parenthesis

[ethinx]

Just try this plugin and find the plugin can't handle the indent well when auto-complete parenthesis.

Description:

I input a = () and the parenthesis is auto-complete, then press Enter, the there will not be indent in the following line:

a = (
*)

Expect result:

a = (
    *)

* means the cursor position.

That seems to be rather an issue of the auto-complete plugin? If I write a = () myself and press enter between the parentheses I’ll get:

a = (
*)

Therefore there must be more going on?

I have tried with smartinput, and the behavior is the one the OP expects, not the one the OP sees:

a = (
    *
)

Sorry, revise the expect result, just my opinion and I think it would be a better and lazy way :(

• Input

a = (*)

• Enter

a = (
    *)

• Keep typing

a = (
    'apple',
    'pear',*)

• Enter

a = (
    'apple',
    'pear',
    *)

• Then jump to the end of the line, Enter and finish typing, auto-indent

a = (
    'apple',
    'pear',
)
*

* means the cursor position.

Well, indeed this behavior is definitely not the job of pep8-indent but that of your autocomplete plugin… some probably can be tuned to do what you want.

OK, Thanks all the way :+1:
