Is there a document formatter extension for Solidity files within visual studio code?












1















I am used to formatting my code by using the (Ctrl + Shift + i) keyboard shortcut. However, when I use the same shortcut for solidity code (with .sol extension) I get a notification telling me 'There is no document formatter for solidity files installed'. Does anyone know of an extension that can do the job?

          These are the two visual studio integrations listed in the solidity documentation.




          • Visual Studio Extension

          • Visual Studio Code extension


          I dont use visual studio so i dont know if its exactly what you are looking for but maybe it helps.



          EDIT: I've been using VS and the solidity extension recommended is: Visual Studio Code extension



          The extension provides:




          • Syntax highlighting


          • Snippets


          • Compilation of the current contract (Press F1 Solidity : Compile Current Solidity Contract), or F5


          • Compilation of all the contracts (Press F1 Solidity : Compile all Solidity Contracts), or Ctrl+F5 / Cmd+F5

          • Code completion for all contracts / libraries in the current file and all referenced imports

          • Default project structure (solidity files needs to be in the 'src' directory, and libraries in the 'lib' directory). Libraries will follow the same structure.

          • Compilation supporting EIP82 (dappfile and dependency packages)

          • Support for different solidity versions (Remote and local)

          • Code generation using https://github.com/Nethereum/abi-code-gen, it includes currently the default template for Nethereum service, dtos generation. (Open 'contractName.json' after compilation from the bin folder. Press F1 and press - - Solidity: Code generate from compilation output..) Please contribute more templates.

          • Linting using Solhint or Solium

          • The first one does not work at all. And I had the first one installed. It does syntax higlighting and autocompletion. But still it doesn't do auto formatting when I use ctl+shift+i.
