Completion -- when not exactly at the end of the line

[olegklimov]

Cursor is not at the end of the line, but behind some special characters (regex) like closing parenthesis: "def f(x: stri|):", completion should give "ng):" and replace the rest or the string.

From VS Code the regex is:

let right_of_cursor_has_only_special_chars = Boolean(right_of_cursor.match(/^[:\s\t\n\r(){},."'];]*$/));

The other keyword is "multiline=False", the model switches to a special mode to replace the rest of the current string.

What is expected behaviour? Is it to retain the special characters such as ) while replacing string?

retain the special characters such as ) while replacing string

Right, it does this by relying on the model -- that it will produce all the characters needed. The plugin need to replace the rest of the current string with the model output.

Can you please provide me steps on how do i setup local dev environment? I can work on this

[olegklimov]

Oh awesome that you want to check it out!

I can't reproduce the exact steps I followed to install it on my Windows box, but I remember it was easy.

Something like:

• Install Visual Studio
• git clone the repo
• Open it in VS
• Agree to download a plugin development SDK of some sort
  => You can run and debug it by pressing F5

If you want to try this, you can record your actions and write it down to CONTRIBUTING.md -- that would we fantastic.

@sakshambp this may not be the best issue for you to work on as it requires a major refactor to get the plugin to insert grey text in between the text in the document.

It almost works, renders it wrong a bit. Should be a small fix.

^^ on the screenshot: shows ); in black not quite at the right place, shows "AlignCenter" correctly.
