Can this be hooked into onSave? about auto-commit-msg

[decryptedchaos]

Perhaps this would work too? Not sure not the best coder in the world. it seems VS Code referees to any source file. as "text"

onDidSaveTextDocument: Event

There's also createFileSystemWatcher(globPattern: GlobPattern, ignoreCreateEvents?: boolean, ignoreChangeEvents?: boolean, ignoreDeleteEvents?: boolean): FileSystemWatcher

Your solution of a hot key to both would also solve the problem, have a look at those API references and let me know if either are useful

Ah, nice idea

[MichaelCurrin]

I couldn't find that event here :( https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/activation-events

Oh wait that is when the extension activates (like on startup), not when it runs.

[MichaelCurrin]

Let me know if you find anything. Or any extensions to base on.

Other extensions I know of listen use the format on save flow, so listening to format event rather than save event. Maybe I can hook into that? Can't see anything useful for formatting or saving here. https://github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode/search?q=save

An alternative would be to add another button, or a mode, or keyboard shortcut. To generate and commit in one move, at the loss of seeing the message in between.

I found https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/vscode-api in the docs

I am seeing stuff print when using onDidSaveTextDocument like this.

  context.subscriptions.push(disposable);
  context.subscriptions.push(
    vscode.workspace.onDidSaveTextDocument(e => {
      console.log(`Running because of file change: ${e}`)
      vscode.window.showInformationMessage(`Running because of file change: ${e}`)
    })
  )

Use in VS Code

And in another project

git checkout auto-commit-msg
