# About

I don't always use VSCode. But when I do, I use Ultisnips.

This script allows you to write all of your snippets in vims Ultisnips format,
and convert the whole batch to json format for use in vscode.

# Installation

`pip install ultisnips-vscode`

# Usage

- Create a config file at `~/.vscode/ultisnips-vscode.json`
- Add the paths to your snippets folders.
- On a mac this file might contain:

``` json
{
"ultisnips-snippets": "~/.vim/UltiSnips/",
"vscode-snippets": "~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/snippets/"
}
```

- On linux this file might contain:

``` json
{
"ultisnips-snippets": "~/.config/nvim/UltiSnips",
"vscode-snippets": "~/.config/Code/User/snippets/"
}
```

- Source your shell, or log out and log back in so the script is in your
`$PATH`
- Run the command `ultisnips2vscode` to synchronize your snippets. This will
output something like:

```
sh.snippets --> shellscript.json
python.snippets --> python.json
all.snippets --> global.code-snippets
texmath.snippets --> doconce.json
doconce.snippets --> doconce.json
gitcommit.snippets --> git-commit.json
zsh.snippets --> shellscript.json
json.snippets --> json.json
html.snippets --> html.json
c.snippets --> c.json
texmath.snippets --> latex.json
tex.snippets --> latex.json
texmath.snippets --> markdown.json
markdown.snippets --> markdown.json
```
