vscjsmd

A simple parser from VSCode Snippets to Markdown table for single prefix snippets, useful for vscode snippets creators.

Install

If you have Go installed:

• git clone https://github.com/Metalymph/vscjsmd.git
• inside the root project directory run go install

Otherwise, copy the binary from cmd directory in your $PATH or just use it. There is a version for Linux, Windows and MacOs (arm64, amd64 and universal).

Example

Taking a fragment from my lorenzopirro.rust-flash-snippets extension:

{
    "loop": {
        "prefix": "loop",
        "body": [
            "loop {",
            "\t$0",
            "}"
        ],
        "description": "infinite loop"
    },
    "for": {
        "prefix": "for",
        "body": [
            "for ${1:index}, ${2:value} in $0 {",
            "\t",
            "}"
        ],
        "description": "for loop"
    }
}

Running in terminal vscjsmd snippets.code-snippets creates a snippets_table.md file with the following not formatted markdown table:

| prefix | description |
| :----- | :---------- |
| for | for loop |
| loop | infinite loop |

You can easily copy it on your snippets extension README.md file and format it than.
