[Question] Pycharm-like behavior?

[sTiKyt]

Is it possible for doc strings to be added automatically like it's done in PyCharm?

Would be cool if it could generate doc-strings if i press enter after """ Instead of need to type command Reference: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/creating-documentation-comments.html

@sTiKyt Hi, thank you for question!

Is it possible for doc strings to be added automatically like it's done in PyCharm?

No. And I don't have any plan to implement this. I think """ trigger has side-effect. So, I don't want to maintain trigger pattern.

But, You can create your own trigger pattern to your vimrc(at your own risk 😉 )

Note this is just sample.

let s:pydocstrings = []        
function! s:pydocstring_run(timer) abort
  execute 'normal! dd'
  execute 'normal! k'  
  call pydocstring#insert()
endfunction            
function! s:pydocstring_trigger()      
  call add(s:pydocstrings, v:char)
  if join(s:pydocstrings_, '') ==# '"""'
    execute 'stopinsert'
    call timer_start(0, function('s:pydocstring_run'))
  endif                
endfunction            

autocmd InsertCharPre * call s:pydocstring_trigger()
autocmd InsertLeave * let s:pydocstrings = []

Thanks you a lot, I'll setup my own script in vimrc then 👌
