Autocomplete
Autocomplete is supported in HTML, CSS, and Javascript files. Simply start typing and matches are automatically displayed.
If you choose, you can disable autocomplete in your preferences:
automatic_completions = false
Other languages are supported with language server protocol although in such files, autocomplete is not automatically enabled. See Language Server Protocol for more information.
HTML attributes
If you enter <a and invoke autocomplete, a list of relevant attributes for the <a> tag are shown.
Tern and javascript
We support intelligent autocomplete using TernJS. Tern also supports explicit directives in the .tern-project file, which you can move to the root (/home/codio/workspace or ~/workspace) of your project.
The file looks like this:
{
"libs": [
"browser",
"jquery"
],
"loadEagerly": [
"importantfile.js"
],
"plugins": {
"requirejs": {
"baseURL": "./",
"paths": {}
}
}
}
Codio only supports autocomplete for the currently opened file and items specified in the libs section of the .tern-project file. Refer to the Tern documentation for full details on how to configure the .tern-project file.
CSS
To invoke autocomplete in a css file, use the ctrl+space keyboard shortcut.
