# autotemplate.nvim



Automatic String Interpolation for Neovim using Treesitter.



## Description

`autotemplate.nvim` automatically converts single (`'`) or double (`"`) quotes into backticks (`` ` ``) when you type `${` inside a string. Inspired by VS Code extensions, but built the Neovim way: Fast, native, and powered by Treesitter.

## Demo

Imagine typing `console.log("Hello ${name}")`. When you type `${`, the quotes are automatically converted to backticks and the cursor is placed inside the braces.

## Installation and Configuration

The plugin is designed to be flexible and give you full control.

### Installation with lazy.nvim

Copy and paste this block into your plugins file:

```lua

return {

  "jos3lo89/autotemplate.nvim",

  branch = "dev", -- Or "main" if you are on the stable branch

  opts = {

    -- Define exactly which languages you want to enable.

    -- Defining this table overrides the defaults completely.

    filetypes = {

      "javascript",

      "typescript",

      "javascriptreact", -- for .jsx

      "typescriptreact", -- for .tsx

      "vue",

      "svelte",

    },

    -- Filetypes to explicitly ignore, even if they are in the whitelist.

    ignored_filetypes = {

      "text",

      "markdown",

    },

    auto_close_brackets = true, -- Automatically inserts "}" and moves cursor left

    trigger_key = "{",          -- Key that triggers the check (Default: "{")

    disable_in_macro = true,    -- Disable plugin while recording macros

    debug = false,              -- Enable debug notifications

  },

}

```
