There is no TypeScript React on the languages list, so I can't find TODO's in my .tsx files.

OSX 10.11.3
VSCode 0.10.8

Hi,

Great plugin to list all todo's. Is it possible to get the list of TODO's in a separate text file so e.g, they can easily be saved?

While scrolling through results (up/down arrow) would be useful for it to open the corresponding file and scroll to line so that the user can get more contextual information.

I have cloned the sample MusicStore application (https://github.com/aspnet/MusicStore)

I set the language to C# and then list todos and it shows me all the todos

I then add the user setting:

"todoIgnore":   ["**/test/**"]

When I list the todos again, it still lists all the todos from the /test/ folder

I even tried to add the setting to the workspace settings, but that also makes no difference.

It seems that the extension is simply ignoring my setting :(

----- Ignore, apologies -----

on my nodejs project it always tells me no entries to pick

By default, the plugin matches on TODO:. is it possible to also match on TODO (so without the colon)?

VS Code 1.5.3, Win10, open folder on our C/C++ extension install folder.

Bug: Click in the TODO:s button freezes VS Code permanently.

This might be a duplicate of another bug I see other using reporting about a system hang.

Looks like node.js is freezing. The debugger says node.js is unresponsive.

I am getting an "unknown configuration setting" warning when i use the todoScanRegex property in my workspace settings.json file.

ex.

{
    "todoScanRegex":   "(?:TODO|FIXME|HACK)\\s*\\W{0,1}(\\s+.*|(?:\\w|\\d).*)$"
}

Seems like right now it's looking for files in all directories which make vscode slow and bring some TODOs from packages. it would be nice if we could choose one or more specific path to watching or ignore packages directories.

I have cloned the ASP.NET Core sample MusicStore project (https://github.com/aspnet/MusicStore)

If I try and find the todos with "TODO: List all todos" I just get the message "No entries to pick from".

When I go and I then select a language, for example C#, and try again then I will see all the C# entries. If I change the language to JavaScript, I will also see all the JS entries. As soon as I change the language to All then it gives me the message again about no entries to pick from.

I am using VS Code on Windows (if that makes any difference...)

Any idea?

If this project is deprecated, could you please archive the project in the settings here on github? The code will still be there, all the files will still be there, but pull requests become impossible, and issues (the option for them) get turned off, as is befit a project that will never receive any updates anymore.

I have a Rust project, searching for TODO's get's me the following message:

`[Info] There is no All files in the open project.`

There are plenty of TODO's around the code...

Note:: It might be related, the Rust language is not showing up on the Set language dropdown either.

no configuration in package.json.

easy fix by updating the package.json:
"contributes": { "configuration": { "type": "object", "title": "TODO's configuration", "properties": { "todoIgnore": { "type": "array", "default": null, "description": "Exclude files from search" }, "todoScanRegex": { "type": ["string"], "default": null, "description": "Scan expression regex" } } } }

Thank you :)
loved the extension.

At first thanks a lot for awesome extension, but is there any way to set default language for TODOs extension it's a bit annoying to call set language any time opening the project, thanks

Improving the appearance of the displayed TODOS

• Shorting the path for the file, remove the root path
• Displaying what the text is of the TODO

Ubuntu Gnome 17.04
Visual Studio Code 1.11.2

Running VSCode 0.10.8 (Win) and vscode-todo 0.5 and still experiencing same system hang as previous version. This is occuring with project folder open and in a javascript file.

If I open a single file vsode the find todos does not hang but no activity occurs (cursor stays in the same place).

Hi, can anybody tell me if it is possible to extend the list of supported languages? I would like to add Powershell, which prefixes commented out lines with a # or uses <# ... #> for a block comment. I made an attempt to extend the content in the language.js file, however after I had done that I Rx'd the
Error Message: command 'extension.chooseLanguageTodo' not found
Afterwhich I had to uninstall to resolve the problem.
Nevertheless, I would appreciate applying this app when scripting.
Thanx,
Porky

I would like to be able to disable the yellow dots in the gutter, as seen on this screenshot

Inline comments with the TODO: marker are not found by the extension. Could possibly use . instead of \W at the start of the lookup in new RegExp("^\\W*(?:TODO|FIXME)\\s*\\W{0,1}(\\s+.*|(?:\\w|\\d).*)$", "i").

Example where not found:
var type = "Test"; //TODO: This message is not identified by plugin.

Syntax highlighting is a key feature this plugin needs. Handling it the same way IDEs like PhpStorm do would be awesome.

The following might be of use:

TextMate grammar injections
Extensions can now contribute TextMate grammars that inject new rules into the existing grammars used for syntax highlighting. This makes it possible to add colorization inside string literals or comments, such as highlighting of URLs or TODO markers across multiple languages.

"grammars": [
  {
    "scopeName": "source.todo",
    "path": "./syntaxes/todo.tmLanguage",
    "injectTo": [  "source.js", "source.ts" ]
  }
]

Hello!
First of all thank you for this great extension! 👍 💎
Usually it is working great, but recently it stopped working after adding woff2-files, which are binary files.

Problem

The reason is in helper.js in function findTodosinFiles when calling Workspace.openTextDocument. For binary files the promise is called with an undefined object.

Solution

I solved it by adding an if-statement in the promise:

var findTodosinFiles = function(files, choosenLanguage, scanRegex, done) {
    ...
    if (files.length === 0) {
        ...
    } else {
        for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
	    Workspace.openTextDocument(files[i]).then(function(file) {
	        if (file) { // <-- line added
	            findTodosinSpecifiedFile(file, todos, todosList, scanRegex);
	        } // <-- line added

see helper.js line 93.

Workaround

Of course, someone can add binary file extensions to "todoIgnore" in the user settings like so:

"todoIgnore":   ["node_modules/**", ... , "**/*.woff2"]

I kindly ask you to fix it. 🙇 😉
Best regards,
Harald

I see the following error on Dev Tools:

I'm using vscode 1.4.0.

Has anyone experienced some similar?

I'm using this with my typescript project and it hangs every time I try to list all TODOs. This may or may not be because of the latest update to v0.10.8 since I did not try this extension before 0.10.8.

Thanks in advance 😄

Thread.Sleep(500); //TODO: Proper detection if screensaver still open.

wasn't recognized by the addon, but

Thread.Sleep(500);
//TODO: Proper detection if screensaver still open.

worked

When clicking on the specific TODO, the file with it is appearing, but I think that it should also scroll to the specific line with the TODO. Now the line is only marked.

It would be really handy if you could implement a feature to also show the number of TODOs on the corresponding button on the status bar. That could be a nice reminder about something not finished within the project.

The extension doesn't work for the file extension .js.coffee

Minor issue:

The readme states:
git clone https://github.com/MattiasPernhut/vscode-todo

but should be:
git clone https://github.com/MattiasPernhult/vscode-todo

cheers

Extension doesn't work for coffeescript files

I have had PR #44 open for 2 months and no response, is this still being actively updated? if not perhaps open up to new maintainers ?

When I want to choose "PHP" langue, It throw error: The choosen language "PHP" didn't match any file extensions, please create an issue.

Take the "search.exclude" setting into account when scanning for TODOs. Maybe do this by default, if "todoIgnore" is not specified.

Do not show todo within vendor folder in golang project!

http://elm-lang.org/ - files are suffixed with .elm

Auto-detection for language would be cool. Selecting language every time is not pleasant.

Match TODO identifiers in comments such as:

• // TODO do something
• // todo do something
• // FIXME fix something
• // FIXME: fix something
