README

        
Create Code Action that executes sequence of commands, customizable via configuration.

Unlike the general, ubiquitous commands, [Code Action](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/refactoring) is a different kind of function that are more contextual to the specific content and language of the document.

While you can't execute a Code Action from the [Command Palette](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/ux-guidelines/command-palette), one unique feature that's only available through Code Action is [Code Actions on Save](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/typescript/typescript-refactoring#_code-actions-on-save). You can use it to execute a Code Action whenever a document is saved.

With this extension, you can create Code Action that executes sequence of commands. Then you can use it in the `editor.codeActionsOnSave` setting.

One way to know the ID of a command through the Command Palette is to click the gear icon to the right, then check the input box in the "Keyboard Shortcuts" page.

### Example configuration

```jsonc

"codeActionFromCommands.codeActions.definitions": {

    // Convert tab to spaces for ALL languages

    "tabToSpaces": {

        "commands": [

            "editor.action.indentationToSpaces"

        ]

    },

    // Preview the Markdown file on save

    "previewMarkdown": {

        "commands": [

            "markdown.showPreview"

        ],

        "languages": ["markdown"]

    },

    // No-op due to empty "languages" array

    "memo": {

        "commands": [

            "workbench.action.editor.changeEOL"

        ],

        "languages": []

    }

}

// enable Code Actions on Save

"editor.codeActionsOnSave": {

    "source.codeActionFromCommands.tabToSpaces": "always",

    "source.codeActionFromCommands.previewMarkdown": "explicit"

}

```
