Auto-indent on line break

[lol768]

Unsure if there's another issue open for this, but it'd be nice if CodeFlask automatically added the same number of indenting characters (tabs/spaces) based on the previous line when hitting Enter

Steps to reproduce:

• Enter the following text:

function foo() {
    // cursor is here: █ 

• Hit Enter

Result:

• New line starts flush against the LHS

Expected result:

• New line is indented 4 spaces per previous line

I'm implementing it on the new version of CodeFlask. This is actually one of the last things missing before I publish the new version.

You can check the current status (aka. me failing miserably to make it work) here: https://github.com/kazzkiq/CodeFlask.js/blob/1.0/src/codeflask.js#L212

Awesome to hear! What are the challenges associated with it?

Any news on this?

[kazzkiq]

Yes. It didn't worked as expected and is in the "TODO" list.

You can check the relevant code here: https://github.com/kazzkiq/CodeFlask/blob/master/src/codeflask.js#L235-L264

Is this supposed to work on https://kazzkiq.github.io/CodeFlask/?

[kazzkiq]

@lol768 Yes.
