Provide an option for camel casing SQL Keywords (aduxr) #4926

Open gengelbms opened 5 years ago

gengelbms commented 5 years ago

Issue Type: Feature Request

You can often create SQL code that vaguely resembles a ransom note. If your style for writing SQL keywords does not match what the upper case style used by code completion. Code completion writes SQL keywords in all upper case (SELECT), but users write these keywords in all lower case (select), title case (Select), or camel case (OpenRowset).

Let users choose how they want their SQL keywords written.

@gengelbms there is an setting named Mssql > Format: Keyword Casing that controls this behavior. Currently we only support UPPERCASE and lowercase but the other options seem reasonable as well.

Thank you. Most of the participants I've seen seem to prefer lowercase, so having the setting is great. I have seen several camel-case user, so that option would be nice have. I would guess that current settings give us about 90% coverage.

I changed this setting to lowercase, but the code completion list still provides me only uppercase items even after restarting the application.

@kazinad are you using Postgres extension? This option is currently only supported for MSSQL.

Yes I use MSSQL, but there are 3 options related to casing in settings, and I changed possibly the wrong one. Thx
