How can I add documentation comments for JavaScript methods in Visual Studio Code? Thanks for any advise!
There is an extension for adding jsdocs.
I am not sure about any particular VSCode version from which onwards it started but I use it in VSCode directly without any extension like this:
Just type /** above the function and press Enter:
it will automatically populate the Comment structure with JSDoc Tags based on your function:

I'm trying to get intellisense to work with JavaScript in VSCode, but when I try to reference an HTML file in the project it doesn't recognize IDs.
In the picture you can see the same project works fine in Visual Studio.
Is there a way to get this functionality in VSCode?
Sadly, Visual Studio and VS Code are two completely different software's. Visual Studio is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment), this means it has more features than a normal text editor (for example VS Code or Atom). VS Code is a text editor, however you can install extensions to make it more into an IDE.
The best solution is to look at VS Codes market place and try and find an extension that will auto complete the HTML tags. I personally haven't found any extension for it.
Hope this helps, if you need any more advice or help DM me on discord CallumS005#9458 and I'll be happy to try and help.
I have found the settings in Visual Studio Code to enable type checking for JavaScript in JS files. Such that: Bad code is highlighted and it also shows the reason why it's bad code
This behavior does not occur for JavaScript code in Vue files. I have searched through all the settings in Visual Studio Code. I have scoured the internet for any extension that can do this for me to no avail.
How can I make my Vue files type-check the JavaScript in them?
LOL. I found the answer.
All I had to do was add //#ts-check directly underneath the script tag and type checking was enabled.
So HAPPY!!!
Thank you, everyone, for your input
For best results I'd suggest starting a new project using vue-cli and selecting the options for TypeScript and ESLint. You'll also need the ESLint extension for VS Code.
Here's a helpful blog post showing the parts of this process.
Once you have a nicely working setup with the clean project, then move the code over. I suggest this because getting all the config right can be a mess with an existing project.
I just started using WebStorm and JSDoc to document my JavaScript. Still I have not found a way to generate a HTML documentation using some kind of WebStorm built-in functionality. I searched the web and Stack Overflow, but only found a lot of questions about the syntax of JSDoc, etc.
What am I missing? I am using WebStorm 7.0.3.
Since Webstorm v8.0.0, you can create JSDoc comments by simply typing /** right before the method or function declaration you want to add the documentation, and then press Enter, this will generate a basic block with all your parameters already set.
More info on this Webstorm article.
Nice article about jsDoc for phpStorm at this link.
In WebStorm I guess the same.
WebStorm has no built-in functionality to generate documentation. You can use external solutions for that, at least as https://github.com/jsdoc3/jsdoc
I use jsduck for that: https://github.com/senchalabs/jsduck
WebStorm has a built-in function to help a little when creating JSDoc documentation in your code, they explain it in this article. As far as I could look for, there's no plugin on the WebStorm plugin store to further help us creating nor rendering JSDoc documentation. For that, you would need to use external tools.
I am using Aptana studio 3 for web programming. Also I use jQuery for the same purpose. The problem is with the autocomplete in Aptana. For instance I am getting this:
$('div').click(function() {
${0:
\}});
Instead of this:
$('div').click(function() {
});
Maybe there is some way to change it (the same happens with other jquery aoutocomplete options).
Thanks!
I had a similar thing happening when trying to type $.ajax... Aptana would insert Array(...
I discovered I needed to install the jQuery bundle!
Open the commands menu > bundle development > install bundle
In the "select bundle to install" window, choose jQuery and hit OK. That's it! You may need to restart Aptana.
Hope this helps.
Try to use latest vsdoc file and use it for code completion. The latest one could be found here. Also please check following related question.
I don't know if this will work for you, but you can try it if you're only using JavaScript and jQuery. https://github.com/JockiHendry/aptanastudio-contentassist-patch
This is not duplicate question because lots of things changed in Aptana Studio 3.1.1 and there is no question regardnig that version.
I would like to have code assist for jQuery in Aptana Studio.
I already installed jQuery bundle. But I still don't get any code assist for my code.
I type for example:
$("div#chat").
After typing dot I should see list of all jQuery functions. But I don't see anything.
What I have to do to fix it?
It works for me as expected using the directions here:
Commands > Install Bundle > jQuery
Right click on a project, select Properties > Project Build Path and select the checkbox for jQuery 1.6.2.
If you don't do the second part, you'll just get snippets. This prevents you from needing to copy it into every project.
Got it fixed.
If you want to have code hinting for jquery you need to download (uncompressed) jQuery library and place it in the same folder as your script.
This is working but it is not satisfying me. I have many folders and I don't want to duplicate jQuery file over all folders.
