Can't seem to get IntelliSense in component template files

[l3vi4than]

I can't seem to have the extension working with VS Angular project templates (no IntelliSense in component.html). Is there anything special I need to do? I'm running the most recent version of the extension with VS 2022 (v17.8.2). The Angular Language Server process is running.

Info: Angular language server process ID: 25192
Info: Logging is turned off. To enable, run command 'Open Angular server log'.
Info: Using typescript/lib/tsserverlibrary v5.2.2 from ...\node_modules\typescript\lib\tsserverlibrary.js
Info: Using @angular/language-service v17.0.0-rc.3 from ...\node_modules\@angular\language-service\index.js
Info: Enabling language service for e:/WorkShop/angular/Separation/Separation/tsconfig.json.

It doesn't work with the old "merged" project template that has both Angular and ASP.NET Core in a single project as well as the newer templates that have two separate projects in a single solution.

Just a clean freshly created solution in VS22+ after installing the Extension. Checked with both Resharper enabled and disabled. I'm not getting field/property names in {{ }} blocks, at all.

Any clues/ideas or suggestions how to diagnose it further?

@l3vi4than hmm strange, I cannot reproduce the issue:

To be sure, did you run npm install at the root of the project directory after creating it?

[l3vi4than]

Otherwise, I would not be able to run the project itself, and it works just fine. So yes, I did, but I verified just-in-case:

e:\WorkShop\angular\Separation\Separation>npm install

@l3vi4than that's very strange indeed. Let me ask a couple more questions:

1. Do you have TypeScript installed globally? (i.e. you used npm install -g typescript).
2. Are you able to get any IntelliSense in component.html files after opening a TypeScript file?
3. Besides completion, do you notice some other feature not working as expected (like colorization)?

@l3vi4than Also please check that you have this setting enabled in Tools/Options:

@MariaSolOs I have verified that typescript was installed globally, it was, defensively updated it to a newer version:

C:\Users\Maly>npm list -g
C:\Users\Maly\AppData\Roaming\npm
+-- @angular/cli@16.2.6
+-- @openapitools/openapi-generator-cli@2.7.0
`-- typescript@5.2.2
C:\Users\Maly>npm install -g typescript
changed 1 package in 1s
C:\Users\Maly>npm list -g
C:\Users\Maly\AppData\Roaming\npm
+-- @angular/cli@16.2.6
+-- @openapitools/openapi-generator-cli@2.7.0
`-- typescript@5.3.3

This did not help.

Then I checked the LSP setting, it was not checked, I enabled it and restarted VS. This did not help as well.

After all that I inspected if the colorization feature works:

• Colorization works, at least I think so, the field name is purple-ish:

As you might notice I infact had both TS and template files opened.

The odd thing is that I even have a hint when hovering the variable in the template editor:

And I can as well navigate to the field with F12. Just the Ctrl-Space drop-down is empty and if I add a dot after temp, it does not provide hint for string members as well.

For reference purposes, though nothing fancy is here, it's nearly just an empty template freshly created with VS:

app.component.html

<div>Hello world! {{ temp }}</div>

app.component.ts

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  temp: string = "Temp";

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {
  }

  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.http.get<string>('http://localhost:5031/weatherforecast').subscribe(result => {
      console.log(result);
    }, error => console.error(error));
  }
}

Update

After applying all your suggestions I tried disabling Resharper again. The Ctrl-Space IntelliSense dropdown started working, it seems it's some kind of a clash with Resharper. I've updated Resharper to the latest version as well. Please put this investigation on hold, for now, I will check with JetBrains, see if they have any suggestiong and come back to. Obviously, I need both extensions active 😄.

Sounds good, I will close this for now because it doesn't sound like an issue with this extension.
