VSCODE-TODO-HIGHLIGHT

License: MIT Build Status Version Installs Ratings

Highlight TODO, FIXME and other annotations within your code.

Sometimes you forget to review the TODOs you've added while coding before you publish the code to production. So I've been wanting an extension for a long time that highlights them and reminds me that there are notes or things not done yet.

Hope this extension helps you as well.

NOTICE

Many report that the List highlighted annotations command is not working, make sure you have the file types included via todohighlight.include.

Preview

Config

TODO:,FIXME: are built-in keywords. You can override the look by customizing the setting.

To customize the keywords and other stuff, command + , (Windows / Linux: File -> Preferences -> User Settings) open the vscode file settings.json.

todohighlight.isCaseSensitive boolean true Whether the keywords are case sensitive or not.
todohighlight.keywords array N/A An array of keywords that will be hilighted. You can also specify the style for each keywords here. See example below for more infomation.
todohighlight.keywordsPattern string N/A Specify keywords via RegExp instead of todohighlight.keywords one by one. NOTE that if this presents, todohighlight.keywords will be ignored. And REMEMBER to escapse the back slash if there's any in your regexp (using \ instead of signle back slash).

"**/*.html",
"**/*.php",

todohighlight.exclude array [
"**/node_modules/**",
"**/dist/**",
"**/bower_components/**",
"**/build/**",

"**/*.min.*",
"**/*.map"
]		 Glob pattern that defines files and folders to exclude while listing annotations.
For backwards compatability, a string combine all the patterns is also valid "{**/node_modules/**,**/bower_components/**,**/dist/**,**/build/**,**/.vscode/**,**/_output/**,**/*.min.*,**/*.map}"
todohighlight.maxFilesForSearch number 5120 Max files for searching, mostly you don't need to configure this.
todohighlight.toggleURI boolean false If the file path within the output channel not clickable, set this to true to toggle the path patten between <path>#<line> and <path>:<line>:<column>.

an example of customizing configuration:

Commands

This extension contributes the following commands to the Command palette.

Known issue

The clickable file pattern within the output channel differs from OS platform(<path>#<line> for Mac/Windows and <path>:<line>:<column> for Linux, for details see this issue ).

Basically the extension auto detects the OS platform.

If you find that the file path is not clickable, set todohighlight.toggleURI to true to toggle the file pattern.
