Weird autocomplete in Django templates/web-mode

[kennethlove]

In a Django template, typing {% produces {%|} as expected (with | as the cursor). Once you press space, though, to add the rest of the tag, something is changing the existing tag to {% | %}}. The same happens for {{ tags: {{ <space> produces {{ | }}}}.

I'm guessing it's a conflict between the standard auto-pairing/closing of things like parentheses and braces and web-mode's auto-pairing/closing of them.

I don't see this issue. Is your html file called .html or .djhtml?

[kennethlove]

.html. I can record my screen if you'd like.

[CestDiego]

you can use asciinema in terminal emacs. Also you have the asciinema to gif https://github.com/tav/asciinema2gif

Just to confirm, you are on branch master right? I think this behaviour changes in

[kennethlove]

I am indeed on master. I was using a symlinked version of the python layer (to have my YAPF plugin) but it was up-to-date with master. Just to be sure, I deleted the symlink and re-checked-out the python layer. Same behavior.

+1, same behaviour here.

I've found workaround in smartparens issue tracker.

You need to add

(sp-local-pair 'web-mode "<" nil :actions '(:rem insert))
(sp-local-pair 'web-mode "{" nil :actions '(:rem insert))

to configuration (I've added it to my web-mode-init functon, but don't know if it's correct, excuse me if not, this is my first day with emacs + spacemacs). :P

Does anybody still has this behaviour?
