Require format strings to use .format #68

Open Lilja opened 4 years ago

Lilja commented 4 years ago

First stab at #65. Defines a new root level matcher, pythonStringFormat. The name of this matcher I hope should resemble a string with an accompanying .format-function. Naming is a bit tricky since pythonFormat and pythonStrFormat are both taken.

This matcher tries to do a positive lookahead of .format if there are also strings begining with with ' or ".

No python 2 support. Personally I don't feel it's worth to add it, but if I can be persuaded to do so 😄

I'd love for this functionality, but as it currently stands it's just not working correctly. If you want to tinker with this look for pythonString and try to implement a similar but custom syn-region but only for strings ending with .format(.
