object_boundary

Table of contents

Description:

This key defines the characters that start and end object literals when parsing snippet parameters.

The value is an object that contains start and end properties, each specifying a string token. For objects, this will usually be { start: "{", end: "}" }.

Appears in:
└── Snippet Format
    └── object_boundary
Type:
Object
Properties:
endstring#

This key defines the end token for object boundaries when parsing snippet parameters.

The value is a string that specifies the token that marks the end of an object in snippet parameter parsing. This works together with object_boundary.start to define paired tokens that enclose objects.

Defaults to:

Show examplesHide examples

In this example, we have configured object boundaries to use curly braces.
